I don't think it's important to make young women believe any sorority is better than no sorority.

Mind you, I despise formal rush as it's done on most campuses, too. It reminds me of arranged marriages, with PanHel standing in for parents. I think it leads to the type of membership selection that is stereotyped and leads to selection based on looks or clothes rather than souls and minds.

Be a sorority member at a campus with 1000 girls going through rush.

Then come back and tell us how you feel.

(For those who are unaware, DGTess's school at present day has approximately 90 women go through rush. I'm guessing the number was lower in the 1970s.)
