A Note from A Bottom-Tier Sister

[Nanners52674]

I found this on That site, but I think it's something every PNM should read.

"I am in a 'bottom tier' sorority. I like it a lot. In fact, I love it. Some of you will talk to me during recruitment. Of the people who do, some will be super sweet and talkative and genuinely interested in learning about my sorority, some of you will feign polite interest, and some of you will be downright rude to me. All because of some preconceived notion of me.
I'm not going to give you some lecture about how you should be open-minded or about how much I love my sorority. I don't care about changing anyone's mind. The kind of women I want in my sorority are the kind who don't have to be told to be open-minded. No, what I would like to remind each and every one of you is that you're the new kids. At best, you're freshmen who haven't even attended your first college class. At worst, you're glorified high school students. And you're being invited into thirteen homes. These are the places we eat, sleep, comfort each other, get ready to go out, conduct our sacred rituals, and watch trashy reality tv shows. Think about inviting us into your home. You'd want us to be respectful.
The bottom line is that if you're walking into a chapter house and you've written it off before you even come in, you need to check your ego and remember that Greek life is a privilege, not a right."
