I believe that TakeALook came here looking for reputations about the sororities and is now upset that she’s not going to receive any such information from us.

However.. I will say this.. I have been a member of this board for just over 2 years now, and I have read many threads started by many new members and active sisters who have had questions/concerns/complaints about their sorority… but I can’t think of ONE where someone said, “The hockey team thinks we’re all fat.. what do I do?!” or “My friend told me that ABC has a bad reputation.. I don’t want to be a member anymore!”

When I joined my sorority, I must say there were some good-looking girls in the chapter. Not drop-dead gorgeous, but they didn’t have a problem getting any attention from guys, either. I will admit, it was a little intimidating at first. However, I still heard, “You can’t spell nasty without AST” more times than I can count. I had people tell me that they were stuck up bitches and were sooooo exclusive. A male acquaintance, after I told him I had attended two of their recruitment events, asked, “Wow, do you think they’ll actually let you join?” And he was serious. And it wasn’t an insult to me, but to them.

But a sister actually came to my dorm and brought me to a recruitment event, and I had such a great time. The girls were amazing. And even in a chapter as small as mine, they were all so different. I knew that's where I wanted to be... regardless of what anyone else thought.

I only hope for your sake, TakeALook, that you didn't let others' opinions determine where you're attending school... or what to major in... or who your boyfriend is... or who your friends are!

Yeah, I'm amused by the "I just wanted to ask about something I didn't know anything about but I'm not going to change my mind why can't I know I swear I'd be responsible about it." Like we're keeping a big secret from her.
