Um Sororities are social organizations, why is it a problem that I want a chapter with a good event calendar that will give me lots of chance to do fun things, bond with sisters, meet guys and get involved in the community. Above all I want sisterhood and to have what the women in my family have gotten from our sorority. But I mean there isn't anything wrong with wanting the house you join to be active and social and fun.

My biggest piece of advice for you at this point:

Keep an open mind during the process to all chapters. Not just your legacy chapters.

Just as you are a legacy to this chapter and you think it's amazIng, I can guarantee that there will be several other direct legacies to said chapter who feel the same way.

Not trying to be Debbie Downer here, but no one is guaranteed a bid (not even a legacy at a school like yours) and it's a good idea to not have your heart set on one group.

I believe the phrase you were looking for was "their sorority." You are not a member.

No, of course there's not. You just don't need to add the arrogant (not to mention highly subjective) opinion that "it's the best house on campus."

Oh, but she has.

I just really can't help but wonder if "E" likes to play volleyball.
