That's where I met members of various GLOs and became friends with some of them. After being exposed through them, I became interested.

I can't even imagine thinking about sororities while I was in high school - I was too busy with everything I had going on. It would have been an unnecessary added stress!
Ditto. Except that technically, I am not 1st generation college. My grandfather attended college (for Mechanical Engineering). My stepdad has his M.S. My grandmother attended college in her 50s. And, my great-grandmother attended a teaching college.

I AM the first person to think about going Greek. My family thought I was from outer space when I told them I was rushing. I would have rushed as a 1st semester freshman, but my boyfriend at the time convinced me that it was NOT something I wanted to do. (Not being Greek, I had NO idea what he said was a lie...) So, we broke up. And, I transferred to Ole Miss the next year. I was a sophomore at MTSU. But, was still considered a freshman at Ole Miss.

No one I know thinks about rushing in high school...
