I'm a CDG fan myself, but ORLY is fun too.

To the OP:

I'm going to be really honest with you. I went through informal recruitment, and I only gave one group a shot. I really wish I wouldn't have done that. There were so many fantastic women in each group that I would have loved to have called my sister, and I only got the chance to meet them by becoming more active with and in the Panhellenic Council.

I almost didn't get a bid to my organization. In fact, I don't even know why they bid me in the end, because even I would have probably cut me. I'd like to say I would have been devastated, and confused, but I don't think that's true. I just wasn't that in to being greek at the time. Fortunately I came around while I was a new member, but that doesn't happen for everyone.

If you aren't pinning all your hopes and dreams on being a member of a sorority, then by all means, cut them, blow them off, don't go when you're invited. If you really want to be a member of a sorority, at least go to the sorority that invited you to their preference. That's the closest you're going to get to actually being a member during the recruitment process, it's like trying on an outfit. THEN decide if they're not for you. That's why you rank after preference rounds, and that's why you sign a preference card. If you still thought you wouldn't have liked to have been in that chapter, don't fill out the preference card, just sign a blank one.
