Exactly.

People have something to say about EVERY CHAPTER.

Even the perceived "best chapter on campus" has crazy rumors and bad rep associated with it.

Example: XYZ might have all the prettiest, most involved girls, win all the awards and be considered the "holy grail" of sorority recruitment.

There will still be fraternity guys, PNMs, girls in other sororities who say things like "they're the slutty chapter" or "all they do is party and snort coke."

Or ABC could have lots of athletes and always win intramurals.

There will still be folks who say "ABC is full of lesbians and they won't take anyone who doesn't play a sport."

Is any of this true? Of course not. The chapters at larger schools really are too big to claim any sort of "they're all _____" kind of statement.

Any chapter you end up in will have some negative stereotype associated with it. No chapter is immune to it.
