Posted March 3, 2008 - Are you considering joining a sorority at your school? Here is a list of important do's and don'ts.
Do’s:
Make sure you're seen involved on campus. You definitely want to appear confident and nonchalant, but don't overdo it. The ladies may think you're trying to be all that, and you could end up being black-balled. Keep in mind that while you may be fierce, you're being watched. And the ladies are looking at you to see if you have what it takes to represent.
If you're hoping that your name will be added to the list of chapter members of whatever sorority you choose, do yourself a favor and make sure you're at all of the sorority's events, and be punctual. The ladies need to know your face and believe that you are serious about the organization.
Be discreet and privately let one or two of the sisters in the sorority know that you're interested. When you tell those two, you can rest assured that the rest of the sorority will get the word.
Be fierce in anything and everything that you wear, including your hair, and
make sure you have a GPA to match. If your GPA is not at least a 3.0, wait until you can get it there. While the rules may say that you only need a 2.5, if you come to them with that, they may not consider you grade-A quality for their sorority. <---How much can I stress this?
Don'ts:
Stay away from sporting your favorite sorority’s colors. Don't show up at the sorority's rush or events wearing the sorority's colors. It’s considered disrespectful.
OK. So you may love the frats – the parties, step shows and dances they put on. But if you know like I know, you’d better not appear to be a groupie. The last thing you want is for the sorority to look at you like the "easy girl."
Stay sober.
Don't go around telling all your little girlfriends what sorority you want to be a part of. They just may be the ones to set you up for failure.
For God's sake, don't act pressed to be a part of a sorority, or you'll catch the heat for that later.
Stay away from groups that refer to themselves as sisterhoods and wear paraphernalia, like fraternity sweethearts. Don't be caught in those organizations, or you can forget about being a part of a sorority.
