Being open-minded at the start will not stop this from happening, and if things like "old row" and "top tier" matter to a girl, she's going to take note of these things whether or not she has an open mind on day one of round one. It's nice to think that a girl will give every house an even shot, but I cannot name for you one girl from my own rho chi group or from any of my rec-writing experience who gave EVERY house a chance.

Sometimes I just want to smack high school girls up side the head! A girl posted a big long "the reputations of each sorority" list on the girls housing site on Facebook for my younger daughter's school. Another girl in my daughter's class has been going to fraternity parties at the school and asking "which one is the best sorority?" and then talking about it with everybody she knows and telling everybody which one she is going to join.
The one thing that I have always, always, always stressed with my daughters and any of their friends with whom I have any influence is this.....KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!!!
