That done, I amend my earlier comments from that post, as my perceptions of APhi's have changed.
APhi is definetly one of the top houses at the University of Nebraska. I've been told that they have been the first house to reach quota for the past 4 years, and haven't had to take any New Members who didn't pref them #1 for the past 2 or something like that.
When I got my invite to go to their spring formal, several of my pledge bros were like "Way to go Geoff...scoring with a hot house."
They are all really gorgeous, and now that I've gotten to know several of them decently well, I know that they are for the most part all pretty nice girls. The campus perception of them however is the typical "I'm hot, so I'm entitled to be a bitch" persona, however I haven't found that to be the case with the ones I've gotten to know.
I would definetly say that they are in everyone's list of the top 5 houses on campus.
As for guys in my own house, the main perception is that since they aren't as likely to party with us as they would with some other fraternities, they must be snobby. However after several great mixers and our homecoming win attitudes are slowly shifting. And hopefully they will continue to see that they should be partying with us.
