Best of luck to your daughter. I would not have inferred you were inquiring about GPA requirements, philanthropy, dues and socials from the question "What's your own personal take ... with each sorority?" I think any reasonable person would infer you were asking ASU students and alumni about their personal experiences with the sororities. And personal experiences with the sororities would likely be inferred as personal interactions with members, as the average person really isn't paying attention to other sororities' dues and GPA and volunteer requirements.
So from that, I don't see how the original question you posted was misread. Most of the posters who responded gave an answer that any reasonable person would give, whether they are an ASU student, a student at OU, Duke, an alum or a parent of a member. I regret that you feel you have been treated poorly, but the recommendation that we "need to get a life" is a bit out of line. I do take offense to that and so would many others.

Where does it say anything about girls living in the sororities? It doesn't and never did. I don't give a rats ass about what the girls are like living in these sororities I want to know about the chapters. What are the fees? What are the GPA requirements? Volunteer requirements? ETC. ETC. ETC. ... Ladies, your making a mountain out of a moe hill. Go back, Go back Go back. Read the original post.......nothing is mentioned about the girls living there. GEEZ!!!

Your daughter will learn all of these things at recruitment, in addition to getting a feel for each chapter. For now, she may call ASU's Office of Greek Life/Panhellenic Council to get some basic information over the phone regarding dues and GPA requirements. Most of the sororities have national and chapter web sites. She can get a better feel for the individual events and such. She will learn all about these, as well as volunteer requirements, during recruitment.

This is really insulting. If you are seeking to become a member of this online community, please curb the generalized attacks. People will be more inclined to want to assist you. That being said, welcome to Greek Chat. Please check out the below linked thread in my sig for a "Recruitment 101" post of anything and everything your daughter might like to know about recruitment in general. Any questions she has specific to ASU are best asked by an official representative of ASU sorority recruitment-- the Panhellenic Council at the university. Anything told to you by a member of Greek Chat is not bona fide information. This being the internet, you never truly know if you are actually talking to someone who is as credible as they claim. Be very careful of this, and make sure to verify information with an official source. Nothing on a message board is gospel!
All the best to you and your daughter as she begins college. ASU is a wonderful school with a great Greek System.
