As with all schools, please go into rush with an open mind. Some years there is a lot of fierce competition during rush, and a lot of freshman arrive on campus having heard all sorts of stereotypes about every single house. It always has baffled me that this goes on there, considering how smart UNC women are. You will find just about every major in every sorority, extensive community involvement, and a lot of sisterhood. Maybe there are a few girls in each house that fit the stereotype, but the majority of them are great women. I never met a Greek woman at Carolina who didn't have friends in other sororities. Furthermore, with the Greek community being small at Carolina, relative to other southern schools, you will end up having a lot of friends not only in other sororities but also outside the Greek system. I am hoping the days of tent talk and stereotypes are coming to an end, but if you hear any, please remember that it really is largely a non-issue once rush is over. Find a home where you feel comfortable in your own skin and where you think you can have both a fun and productive college career.
It sounds like MandyPepperidge is more involved in recent recruitment efforts there, so I'll let her be your guide, should you have any questions, but I hope she agrees with me that all the houses have their share of superstars and sweethearts.
Best of luck!

Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you know that recruitment kickoff is today! I think we are just going to get some general information and meet our Rho Chis. I got a call from my Rho Chi last night, so I already know what group I'm in. I just have to finish up my homework, then I'm going to go get ready. I'll update you tomorrow and let you know how it goes!

Sorry it took me so long to post, the amount of homework that's already piling up is ridiculous! The kick off was GREAT, and I love my Rho Chi's they are so sweet. We get to spend more time with our group Thursday, so I'll get to know everyone better then.

Thanks AzTheta, I'm not getting behind, it's just a lot. I've already knocked everything out for this weekend, so I get to just sit back and enjoy recruitment.

I got back from rush about an hour ago and was typing all my notes in word so I wouldn't forget. I LOVED IT. I now know that I definitely want to join a sorority, and there was only one house where I really couldn't see myself at. I do have a definite number one, but all of the girls were so GREAT! I can't wait to get my schedule Sunday and find out which houses I'm going back to.

I know this is a ridiculously fast reply to your post since you JUST posted it, but after I posted in a thread I came back to the recruitment story homepage and saw that you updated.
I'm glad you're having a positive experience so far! I hope you're happy with what you end up getting!
