I hate to hijack her thread, but if she follows the advice given, this won't matter.

Let's assume that your suspicions are correct and the OP is a troll. She asks a question which many deem to be rude/improper, etc. She would fully expect to receive snarky answers, right? Instead, we offer polite, helpful information which would help someone who was really in the OP's described situation if they did a search on this site or merely Googled "Recruitment" and "Alabama" together (this thread might actually pop up in the first few pages of such a search.)

Giving a straight answer covers your bases -- if she's real, then you've helped someone, if she's a troll, you're not feeding her. Win-win.

Well said!

If the op is legit, then she needs to get busy because Bama Recruitment is highly cometitive AND right around the corner. (YIKES! Where did the summer go?)

Jelly, all sororities and fraternities were founded on the high ideals and principles of scholarship, community service and sister/brotherhood. Bama is no different and we strive to achieve those. One easy example is the Spring 2007 All Greek Women's GPA was 3.18, All Independent Women's GPA was 2.96.

On any campus you will find both Greeks and non-Greeks who like to party and what not to excess as well as those who don't. Ironically enough I just gave this same advice to another poster. Never base any decision in your life on a stereotype because too often they are highly exaggerated or downright wrong. Always take the time to investigate something for yourself.
