Another shot?

Thanks for the advice.

Thankfully, I still have a long while to mull over a decision to try for informal. I'm still undecided. I don't really want to appear desperate by ending up getting rejected three times. But, I'm really longing for the kind of sisterhood I see in these girls and want that kind of bond and the opportunities that come with being in a sorority. It's just not the same to be in clubs that consist of 4-6 other people who won't even smile back when you pass going to classes despite being friendly to them and are clubs that pretty much no one outside of them knows/cares about.

I have to ask this:

Do you have a sort of "tunnel vision" on Greek Life to the point that you aren't allowing other clubs to be a fun experience for you?

Alot of times, people will keep saying "but I want to be in a sorority" so much that NO OTHER group can be perceived as anything fun because it's not a sorority.

I know that you want to be Greek and of course English Club or something like that isn't a sorority, but it can still be a great experience and you can still form valuable relationships there.

I dunno, I was in several clubs outside of my sorority, and I found that those members were just as friendly to me as my sorority sisters were.

I understand that you want to be in a sorority, but to be honest, if that doesn't work out, I would hope that you seek other outlets for involvement. You only get one chance at college, and I want girls to make the best of it by not sitting around and lamenting not being in a sorority.

And really, even if you DO end up being in a sorority, I would suggest having some other campus involvement like a club.

I think most sororities REQUIRE that you be involved in other activities outside of the sorority. I think our requirement was to be involved in at least two other groups on campus.
