Oh, and I didn't mean to delete my post. I clicked the button to edit at the end that I did get a bid through continuous opening bidding and accidentally deleted my post. Why would I delete it if the person right under me had copied it anyway? I would be happy to share my story at Texas with anyone, that is why I wrote it in the first place, or else I wouldn't have even written it. It was a learning experience, and THANK GOODNESS KSUViolet QFPed my original post so people can still read it!

Well there are many other girls out there who are bashing the Texas sorority system more than I am, so you have much more to worry about! 33girl, my sister is not in a sorority at Pitt, so she doesn't know much at all about greek life at Pitt. Yes, I did ask about those 3, because those are the ones that I have the most friends in and are the ones that I hear about/am around the most, and yes, they do happen to be a part of the "big 6," so I was wondering if they were just as good at Pitt. Sorry for being curious! It's thanksgiving... live a little!

If you're around them... and you have friends in them... why are you here asking US about them?

She has friends in them at Texas, she doesn't know a soul in ANY sorority at Pitt.

Ah, I see now. I was wondering why she'd be asking if she knew members of some of the chapters personally.

At any rate, you need to realize, hookem, that to inquire about only three of the chapters (whether you have friends in them or not) is not going to help your cause. Especially when those people/chapters you know personally are hundreds upon hundreds of miles away from where you're going to be.

Asking for reputations, whether it be in regard to one chapter or all of them, is not going to produce a positive repsonse from people here.

Just because you have not heard of the ones at Pitt does not mean they are not strong, thriving organizations.

hookem, since you turned off your PMs after you sent me one, I am going to reply here.

As I said in my post, recs aren't necessary.

Again, as I said in my post, I am NOT going to tell you the reputations of the chapters at Pitt. You know zero about any of the chapters besides what you tried to look at online, you've never met a single woman from any of the chapters, and you're focusing on 3 of them because they are strong in your area? (many other chapters at Pitt are strong nationally, especially in the South, including my own chapter- KD- which didn't make your "list" - not a good idea when you're asking someone for help) Chapters are different everywhere. And further, if you go into recruitment only looking at 3 chapters, you are going to be sorely disappointed.

I'm sorry if these seems harsh, but we just don't do that here. And I'm not going to do that for my school. The sororities have really done a great job the past couple years and nearly every chapter is excellent now.

Oh, and also - don't come up north for an easy peasy (so you think) rush and then transfer back down to Texas. I don't think so, Homie don't play that.
