Why did you decide to join a sorority?

[33girl]

There were some girls from my high school who were total witches who joined sororities. They were at different colleges so it really didn't matter.

There were 3 girls from my high school at my college who were not witches, but as you said, concerned with being popular. 2 joined one group (the "most popular" one) and the other joined a different one. None of them joined my group. One time the third girl made a crack about me being geeky in high school to a fraternity guy who happened to be a good friend of mine (and who also was slightly scary if you didn't know him well). He proceeded to rip her a new one. It was awesome .

So the moral of the story is...unless you're going to college with everyone from your high school....don't worry about it. A lot of times the people who have been coasting off the "popular" image they attained in 7th grade get a VERY rude awakening when they get to college.

Oh, and drunk guys will hit on you EVERYWHERE at college - Greek or not - if you don't like the idea of that, either 1) don't go to a coed college or 2) don't go to parties.

I read somewhere that college "levels the playing field"...in other words, it doesn't matter how cool or popular you were in high school; when you get to college, you basically start all over again. Some people really blossom once they get to college. Use this as your chance to shine and put your high school experience where it belongs...in the past.

Oh, and I have to second what DeltAlum said...it's been really nice reading the posts in this thread.
