Re: Southern Greek Orgs - Prestige?

Anyone have any comments?
Many times, money has little to do with being selected as a deb. I have seen young women from "poor" families selected... over "rich." History, mothers/grands/great grands, etc. play a role in many clubs, before money.

Not to be rude, but I refuse to comment on the other questions... no disrespect meant to you. I am just tired of the stereotypical BS regarding the south and rush that comes up on this website.

The same percentage of women pledge (actually more) each year at Ole Miss, that pledge at northern schools such as PSU. I find it ironic that many boast at the "Funny reasons that did not pledge a chapter," but baulk at "Reasons that a young lady might have been dropped from a chapter; or quite frankly anything to do with Southern Sororities."

Many of your questions have been answered on GC; use a few keywords under search. I am sure someone else would be glad to answer your questions, hopefully someone from a Southern School, who is actively involved in their chapter (actives or alumnae). I also hope this thread will stay respectful, and not become another Southern vs. Northern Sorority member thread.
