On my campus:

Kappa Phi Omega-- for having so many members, and so many girls involved all over campus. Plus- loooovee the scottie dog mascot.

Tau Epsilon Mu- for being such grounded and fun ladies, as well as excellent neighbors!

Sigma Alpha Tau- ladies of straight up class and poise. Very dedicated christians and campus leaders as well. They do a ton of philanthropy, not a week goes by where they aren't walking for this or swimming for that.

Theta Nu- they have an adorable, beautiful house. Plus, they grew from a chapter of 6 girls to the largest chapter on campus in less than 10 years. They have a very diverse membership as well. Plus, unique mascot (the deer).

Epsilon Kappa Tau- if a sorority could have "sisters", I'd like to think they'd be our "sister" chapter. We tend to have a lot of women who attend our final part and EKT's final party as well. Our mixers are a blast as well. They're so dedicated to their philanthropy (breast cancer), and plus their chapter colors are pink and white, so there's a TON of pink ribbons everywhere (their nametags for recruitment this year were foamie breast cancer ribbons w/ the PNM's name on them). Their sword badges are very unique and they are one of the very few chapters that have retained their original badges.

In a larger context:

AKA- So many teachers who influenced me are members. I didn't really get what the pink and green lanyards were all about when I was in school, or why they all had little ivy plants on their desks, but now I see why. I've never met one who wasn't an intelligent and classy woman.

Alpha Xi Delta- for my future sister in law! I've met so many of her sisters, and they're all ridiculously smart and fun ladies. Plus she was smart enough to want to marry my brother . Also, I *love* the motto and the badge.

Phi Kappa Tau- for turning my brother into a man! His experience with Greek life influenced my decision to go greek. I am amazed at the dedication and loyalty his chapter brothers, even as alums, display...his entire grooms party will be Phi Taus. Plus, they initiated the greatest man in my life...MY GRANDFATHER! My brother and grandfather joke that "only in WV can your grandfather be your brother as well!". It was amazing for my bro and grandpa to be chapter brothers as well as alumni together. Meant a lot to both of them.

I think Delta Gamma and Delta Zeta have the best colors. Pink and green go together so well, and so do pink and blue. Oh, and I love how girly Phi Mu's is, too. I'm not the biggest fan of my sorority's colors. On bid day, we use red, green, AND white ballons just to make it look less like a Christmas party! But, our interior decorator flawlessly incorporated them into our house and everything looks so springy and beautiful--I love it.

Chi O's owl is the CUTEST thing ever. But I have to say I'm a big fan of "thing" mascots. KKG's key, DG's anchor, Theta's kite, Pi Phi's arrow, ZTA's crown, and of course, my own lyre , to name a few.

Tri-Sig has the best motto, "Faithful unto Death." I love their use of skulls and crossbones (and Chi O's, too). It's so mysterious and secretive and cool.

On my campus....

I love Pi Phis because they are all so intelligent - and I have a great friend in that house!

I love DUs because they are so committed to eachother, and very accepting.

I love Thetas because they are all so nice, warm, and open.

I love Pi Kapps because they are super nice, sweet, and always gentlemanly; and because they have great philanthropies. Also, they're some of the best looking guys on campus!

Most of all I love KD for all the great friends and opportunities it has given me!

FIJI and KA here at Texas are the only other houses that are worth a shit. Delt is ok but insanely metro. Sig Ep is basically the top tier's B Team, ok with a nice house, but still just a bunch of Seps.

Yeah. Thing mascots are awesome. For instance, I always wanted a tattoo. Can't get my letters. And there is no cool way to tattoo a squirrel on yourself. There's just not. Our only other choices are a red and buff rose (hard to do without looking like a fake tattoo you get out of the machine at the grocery store) and pearls...what, tattoo a pearl necklace on?

There is one other GLO that I respect A LOT, more than any other, and that is Sig Ep and not just because one of my best friends (who I actually met through the Greek System) is a SigEp, but because so far as I know, the Better Man Program they have is so respecful that it is one of the best new member programs I have heard of ever!!! I mean, we have the LEAD program but basically, I tell people wanting to rush, that if they don't or can't rush Sigma Nu then, if they can, rush Sig Ep, because they have the next best program in the country! I'm a Sigma Nu, and I totally support Sigma Phi Epsilon so I would suggest to anyone rushing to check both of them out because they have the best programs that I know of as of right now...not to be biassesd, (Sorry I'm tired so I don't know if that's how it's spelled) but yeah

I really like KKG Key. I think it is my second favorite pin (the Quill being first) and their colors.
