It's ridiculous. Guess what, every group has a reputation at every school. They aren't all "the same in their own unique little way." That's a PC load of malarkey. I would much rather someone give me a straight up answer than sugar coat one with a bunch of crap that you'll find out isn't true the minute you start rush.

Foxfire J.......I go to Texas and have some friends at UTA. I could find out pretty quickly about most of the sororities there.

^^^ Exalt. I to hate the "tread lightly, you may get a slap on the hand" mentality about that stuff. We are all adults - I hope. Just talk the chapters up; don't talk the "bad" ones down, surely that would be ok? Or how about a coined-template end statement of "but they are all really good in their own rights" at the end of your post.

Some are adults. But the teenaged girls who are asking these questions are pretty easily swayed by illusions of prestige.

We don't want to set them up for disappointment and we preach that they should be open to joining a sisterhood that is a good fit for them, not a "title."

This isn't exclusive to Greek Chat. Every Panhellenic and Alumnae Panhellenic forum I've ever sat through expresses these same sentiments, and this is what we will continue to do.
