Haha, yes I am back. I would have updated more, but I had trouble finding the post, with all the new posts. Spring rush wasn't that big, and I feel like that really hurt me. I was only able to make it to two events, for two different sororities. However, with one I got sick the one night, and since I couldn't go to their first event, I wasn't able to go to any of their others. And the other one just plain out rejected me.

I really wanted to go greek, but I know or at least I have heard that sororties look down on juniors pledeging. I feel liek that might make me akward.

I love Penn State I really do, but getting involved here is so hard!!!

I don't remember it being unheard of for a junior to get a bid, why not go through and see? If you only met 2 chapters, you haven't really given greek life there a try.

I admit it's a big campus, but there is PLENTY to do there, if you look/try. About 10% of the female population are in sororities, so 90% are doing something else, I'm sure you can find SOMEthing that interests you.
Activities

13% of men belong to 59 national fraternities; 10% of women belong to 31 national sororities. There are more than 600 groups on campus, including art, band, cheerleading, chess, choir, chorale, chorus, computers, dance, debate, drama, drill team, ethnic, film, forensics, gay, honors, international, jazz band, literary magazine, marching band, musical theater, newspaper, opera, orchestra, pep band, photography, political, professional, radio and TV, religious, social, social service, student government, symphony, and yearbook. Popular campus events include Late Night Penn State, Dance Marathon, and Distinguished Speaker Series.
Sports

There are 15 intercollegiate sports for men and 14 for women, and 15 intramural sports for men and 14 for women. Facilities include 6 gyms, 5 swimming pools, indoor and outdoor tracks, 2 golf courses, a jogging course, a rink, 2 rifle ranges, 32 acres of practice fields, and numerous courts for tennis, handball, squash, and paddleball.
