TKE at U of Alabama?

[BamaDad DZ]

My daughter is a new Delta Zeta at the University of Alabama. Based on conversations with her, I believe an unofficial heirarchy or at least the appearance of one exists among Alabama sororities. The differences seem to be slight, though admittedly distinct. Nor are the distinctions necessarily bad. It appears that each sorority has its own unique reputation or character. Some may be a little more popular than the other, depending upon one's perspective. I think DZ was once Old Row, but no longer. I believe they have an excellent reputation at Bama despite the noted absence of Old Row designation. Surely every sorority and fraternity hold different reputations from campus to campus. You can't go wrong if you are Greek. period.

Just a few words from a DZ Dad who respect all fraternities and sororities...

You are correct and you write pretty well, so I'm pretty sure you're the only reasonable older person on the board. The hierarchy is more noticeable than you are privy to, but it is certainly there. I know a couple DZ's at Alabama, and they are great girls, so I'm sure your daughter's having a great time.

Congratulations on Your daughter finding and affiliating with D Z!

Secondly, I try to equate things in the wheel of life. Sometimes on top and sometimes not.

The wheel still keeps turning round and round.

On top today, maybe not tomarrow!
