From my understanding recruitment at USC is quite competitive for a west coast school. Do you really want to do anything to jeopardize your chances? Partying on the row is fun, but if you do join an organization you will have a few years to do that anyhow. Why risk it? My husband's cousin is a Kappa from there and when I asked her she had the same opinion I did. I'm sure you will meet plenty of freshmen during recruitment as well, it's not the only place to meet them.

I can understand that you want to have your fun; however, if going through recruitment is that important to you, then why would you want to put yourself in a potentially compromising situation? You have no idea what could happen while you are on the row. It could be something that you are in the middle whether it be intentional or not. Personally, I would stay away. You never know who could be watching you. There could be talk behind your back or who knows what else. There are other places you could have fun other than the row. Of course, you can do whatever you want. But you don't want to be constantly wondering if something you did on 'the row' could have prevented yourself from joining a sorority. No matter what the school, every girl should be careful how they carry themselves from the time they step on campus until recruitment starts. It sounds creepy, but eyes are everywhere.

Thanks for the feedback! I think if I go out with my friends (should I decide to) I'm not going to do anything crazy. We're going back to my friend's parents' house, anyway, and I think it's disrespectful to act stupidly while living under somebody else's roof. Plus, my main reason for going isn't to party, it's to hang out with my friends that I haven't seen for a few months. Hopefully it won't make a serious impact either way.
