I'm cynical, yes. But these girls need to grow up sometime.

Excuse the crash, but I like what KSUViolet said as well as adpiucf.

Correct me if I am wrong, but on the pref card one should put Sororities that they actucally see themselves belonging to rather than fill up the card and see what you get, right? If that is the case someone getting their second choice should not be a big beal and if they didn't want them they had the choice to suicide, right?

Like KSU said, they better be happy they get in a house because some girls don't get picked at all.


ETA:
For example I have heard some interested girls (NPHC) talk about if they have to join on a line that is large they would rather wait or not join at all. I call BS on that because if they want the Sorority for the right reasons they would not care about that moretheless they should think about how many people wish they could get in. I swear people are such babies. There are many other women who would be glad to be in ABC, XYZ, 123 so shut up! LOL
