Dropping Out of My Sorority

And they are not planned months in advance, we get the dates maybe 2 weeks in advance. If everyone in greek life is as rude as you people, then it's better I leave.

You don't need a house to hang out with people. Chapters who don't have houses usually do have a place where everyone congregates - the student center, the cafeteria, a certain sister's dorm or off campus apartment. Do you know where any of these places are as far as your sorority is concerned? Do you ever go there?

As far as the doctor is concerned - that's ONCE A MONTH. What about the other 3 Fridays and Saturdays of the month? What do your sisters do then? Do you know? Have you asked?

You get out of Greek life what you put into it. You are putting in nothing, therefore you are getting nothing.

Exactly. And what about after your chapter meetings, don't you all go out to eat or anything?

My chapter didn't have a house. My school was a commuter campus, so after classes everyone went home...I went to my dorm room (and I was in a residential hall clear across campus where NONE of my sorority sisters lived). I didn't have a car to go and hang out with my sisters whenever I wanted, so I made the effort to hang out whenever I could. After monday chapter meetings, we'd all go eat pizza. If I had a break during class, i'd go to the student union and hang out with whatever sisters were there. I'd invite my sisters to try some of my roommate's food (she was from China), we'd just sit outside and chat.

Mixers, socials, semi-formals aren't the only way to "hang out" with your sisters.

And no one's being rude. We're just being truthful, and maybe you don't want to hear the truth.

Quite frankly, this isn't rude at all. If she wants rude she should stick around for a while. This was actually quite nice until she came back and tried to cop an attitude.
