Whole chapters wouldn't be kitchen chapters.

Sure they can be. They just don't realize it. That's what EVERYONE says.

Whole chapters wouldn't be relegated to the kitchen. "Kitchen chapters" are comprised of women who would be relegated to the kitchen if they were in other chapters. That is what SydneyK is saying.
/thinking out loud

I just figured out why "kitchen chapters" is an exaggeration and a joke. I initially read SydneyK's post to mean that there are chapters that have women who sit in the kitchen. Don't mind me...move along, lookie-loos...oh look, a pony....

What do you think?
One of the hazing stories I've heard is having to eat three bowls of lentil chili, put on white satin pants, then play Twister with a fraternity. There is one chapter that makes each pledge eat a 30 oz wheel of Crimson Fire, without crackers.

The worst hazing is called The Scottish Play. The girls stay in a room until a buffet of dishes made with lentils, eggs, mushrooms, cabbage, and cheese is finished. Then they have them put on their bathing suits and get into a fraternity's pool. They chant "Double, double, toil and trouble; fire burn and cauldron bubble." until a girl makes the cauldron bubble. That girl gets the pledge name Hecate.

^^^Now that you mention it, I think daughter knew Hecate '07.

I have to say the most horrific part of your story is the lentil chili. Lentils are a sacred business in the Palouse and should never be used in such a despicable way by mean, witchy sorority girls. That alone should have gotten them kicked off campus and out of eastern Washington altogether. Daughter's first cheerleading duty at WSU was marching in the nationally famous Pullman Lentil Parade. Her FB status that day read, "I can't believe I'm marching in a parade for a bean."

By the way, since I've heard non-stop praise for Cougar cheese from every corner - does being forced to eat a 30 oz wheel of Crimson fire fall into the hazing category or the gift category?

You guys realize the kitchen chapter thing is a joke playing off the stereotypes that the OP came at us with, right?

Don't know how I misread it, but I get it now.

Seriously though, are you missing common sense or are you just dumb? Do you think True Blood is real showing of Louisiana? Is House a good how doctors/hospitals really are?

GO through recruitment and figure it out yourself. Stop listening to other people.

Somehow I get the feeling that you will fit right in with the snooty, trashy, bitchy crowd. Go for it!

Coming from Birmingham, I went to boarding school up north. For the first few months everyone came up to me and wanted to hear my accent. They always said "say something." I finally tired of it and started replying "Something" with as much of a southern drawl as I could muster.
