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.
