this kind of sounds like the phi mu's at our school. they tend to be REALLY fake. most of them do walk around like they are something special and everyone needs to want to be like them or something. from what i understand of it, the phi mu chapter here has some problems with their sisterhood (this meaning they put on a great show at social activities and during rush about how great their sisterhood bond is and then tearing eachother up in meetings and in private). unless you are 5'9 and weigh 115lbs the phi's here think that you aren't good enough for them. they believe very strongly in keeping up this "perfect" image and (again) from what i understand, they can sometimes treat their sisters badly to make sure they live up to the image they want.
i am not downing phi mu's as a whole, because i am friends with a couple of them here, i am only talking about the chapter at my school. i understand that images of chapters are different from school to school (just like azd's), this is just simply my opinion of the chapter at my school. sorry if i offended anyone out there who is part of a great phi mu chapter!

Phi Mu as a whole is great on our campus. We only have 3 nationals on our campus and 1 local (my sorority) and they are pretty big, they always, from what I can tell meet their quota. I know quite a few, and all are sweet. I don't know much about their sisterhood or etc but I have nothing but positive to say about them.

The Phi Mus on my campus are great (I'm a little biased being a phi mu myself). Very friendly and intelligent. We are in PA though and not as strong as the Phi Mu chapters down south.

Phi Mu at my school is a good solid chapter, full of very all-around girls. We use to have Phi-esta with them each fall (not sure if they still have it). The reigning Miss Mississippi, who also I think was in the top 20 at Miss America graduated this past May and is a Phi Mu.

And we wonder why sororities don't get along Panhellenically...

The Phi Mus at my school were sort of stuck-up. They didn't mingle much with other sororities. Things may have changed since I graduated, so I don't know what they're like now.
They were all very pretty and talented girls, though. They always made quota and they were mostly blonde. Phi Mu was a very strong group.

I am a sister of Phi Mu at a southern school, and we are awesome! In addition to a strong, tight sisterhood, our chapter boasts many awards and honors. I am very proud to say that Phi Mu is on TOP!

FSU Phi Mu's
Phi Mu is a 3rd Tier Sorority here at FSU. The girls are nice, but shy and uninvolved- Kind of invisible on Campus.

Phi Mu at my school got 35 girls this year and initiated 31. Quota was 40, BTW and after initiation 5 girls dropped. At the end of this semester 2 more went inactive. I think they need more emphasis on sisterhood and less on image right now. That is my personal opinion, though. I know two Phi Mus that I talk to and that is the impression I get. They have a rep for hiding girls during rush too.

Ok I wasn't going to respond because obviously I am biased towards my own organization....but anyway...So maybe we are not the best sorority on FSU's campus but by no means would I consider us to be shy and uninvolved/invisible on campus. We have sisters in MANY campus organizations and participate in almost every IM and philanthropy. We have had a sister on Homecoming Court every year I have been at FSU and place in many competitions including winning last year's Dance Marathon. We also had a great rush this year, have really tightened up the sisterhood in the past couple of years and are at chapter total. Sorry to be defensive but I would just like to share another picture of FSU Phi Mu's.

We did not have Phi Mu at Indiana State but I got the honor of living with one from either Purdue or I.U. (it was a long time ago)!
She was the twin sister of a Chi O and transferred to ISU. She stayed with us in the Chi O stairwell- she was the most sweetest person. Sincere and very very beautiful but the kind that did not know it.
She was so proud of Phi Mu- she wore her letters all the time and represented them very well on a campus that did not have a local chapter.

We didnt really do much with Phi Mu as a whole at GMU but I had a couple friends in Phi Mu that were really nice. They were a blast to party with.

Pardon me for being "Pink" for a moment.
I know Phi Mu is different on all campuses, but there is no need for demeaning us so badly! There are things that I hate about some sorority on my campus, but I don't publicly announce it because it is not panhel-friendly. I cant believe any of you even have the guts to write this stuff! I'm proud to be a Phi Mu at my school. We are the girls with class, and the most respect!
