May I just offer congratulations to all who have responded in this thread?
I expected it to turn into the usual, "This has been discussed 34,358 times, you're an idiot and this is a really shallow question."
The fact is, that, to me, it seems like an honest question from someone with little or no knowledge of the Greek System and less knowledge of GC.
Thanks to you all.
Just to add, my wife was the "(very) pretty and (very) smart girl" in high school who was disliked by the "in crowd" but still was prom queen, valdictorian, etc. She was even pushed into a muddy creek at their senior picnic.
She still has emotional scars from that treatment, but had an outstanding college experience. She did not pledge, (but did rush for the experience and was given bids by Pi Phi and Chi O -- can you get bids from two groups these days?) but the reason was because her mom apparantely had a bad sorority experience and her parents said they would cut off all financial support if she joined a GLO.
I suppose the moral, if there is one, has been stated above. High school people can be cruel, but some (most) do change. Put it behind you.
Good luck.
