I am not asking for tips on how to get in. I either fit or I don't fit. What I do want to know is how the kappas are at IU. I would like to know more about them not what they look for in girls. I think people are flattering themselves a little too much to think I am that coo-coo over kappa. I am not in a frenzy to get in, I am not obsessed to get in, I am not awed by them; I am interested in them, or rather was. GET OVER YOURSELF! It was a question. Not a plea written in blood to get into Kappa. I really should not have bothered explaining myself but I think some of the girls on here need to come back to earth. I didn't profess love with them so to say I did makes you look very full of yourself. When I say "you", I mean the ppl this pertains to. I challenge anybody to find a quote where it was supposedly apparent that I am "dying to get in" or that I want to be in a sorority "sooo bad". This forum seems like a community that is used to whiny girls who ask how to get into sororities too often and get upset by newbies who they assume are acting in that manner.
Get to know THEM. Talk to THEM.

They are ranked the worst right now. I was hoping to hear otherwise from you girls but so far it looks like you are holding up the the reputation of being bitches. yeah, ouch.
You said you have friends in Kappa. Why do you need to ask us about them?

If it's the thread I think it is, her tone (and word choice) came across as overly self important and GCers responded accordingly.

If you continue to spread vicious rumors about my sisters, you will learn what bitchiness is. Because this? Please. My sisters have been nothing but polite. If you have problems with others, FINE. Take it up with them privately and leave my sisterhood out of it.

You were politely informed as to what you should do, and you chose to take this thread where it has gone. I can guarantee that the attitude you've taken will leave you bidless at IU. Therefore, I urge you to take a step back, stop posting, and listen to the advice you were given.

And they were still one of the groups you were "itching to join"? Doesn't that say more about you than about them?

Even if we had patted you on the head and gave you a gold star for your attitude and praised you for it, not all Kappas are the same. Each girl is different, and each campus is different.
Also, you say you're aware that it's biased info but you still have the idea that rumors are true, why would you want to be a part of Kappa so badly then? (Enough to ask about the Kappa ways).

And an online website? That doesn't really pertain to how the dynamic of a sisterhood. IU is very competitive in Greek life and I have no doubt people rate down other chapters, sad as it is. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but as a competitive school, IU cuts many freshmen. Sophomores face even harsher cuts at any competitive Greek school.

And if we were holding up the reputation of being bitches, I'm sure you'll get an automatic bid. However, we aren't. We're just telling you that it's foolish to go in as a sophomore and expect/hope for two chapters.

I advise you to think before you go on the Internet. It's not as anonymous as you'd like to think.

PS. Don't tell us to get over ourselves. It's taken pretty badly when someone appears to only want one or two chapters at a competitive school. If anyone needs to get over themselves, it's you.

33girl. oviously I meant to write that I was not itching to join. Also kappamd, I did not spread those rumors. As I said either people were slandering their name or it was truthful answers caused by kkg's own doings. As I said, if you don't believe me, look at kkg iu at greekrank.
And I can ask my friends about their chapter but they live in a different sate and they are not on probation.
ksuviolet, if lecturing someone you dislike qualifies them for president in your mind, i truly wish your right to vote was taken away.

I am sorry for having interests or expectations. I won't do that from now on. not. i guess that makes me full of myself for liking two chapters. also i never said the rumors were true nor that i believed them, that doesn't mean its not a possibility.

Well, the most cuts I've heard of happen to those who don't keep an open mind. As a sophomore, you've already got that against you. You should go through with an open mind and be happy where you get invites back to. The reason I'm saying it makes you conceited is because since you're a soph, you have that against you (like I said earlier in this very post). You are likely to be cut from more sororities than freshman. You have that against you. If you go in with the entitled attitude, it's likely that you'll eliminate any chance at all.

Do you believe everything you hear?

It appears that the members on here are waiting for the chance to pounce on someone. I had interests in certain sororities. SO WHAT?! Didn't you all? yes.

GET OVER IT! Either offer adivce or leave it alone. Don't drag things out otherwise. Its just wasting my time as well as yours. No one forced you to write a response. There is way too much self importance and angst on here. And I am ridiculous trying to justify myself to a bunch of angry, underfed, over tanned, self-important sorority girls.

Take out your anger on issues that matter and stop wasting it on trying to harrass newbies. I am not broken up by this and it isn't going to affect me. I will keep on living my blessed life.

You brought it to this board, which makes you just as guilty and as those who post on greekrank (whatever the hell that is).

Another IU Sophomore Link

And honestly? I went into recruitment with an open mind. I had heard things but knew that I didn't know the whole story. Rumors are rumors. If you believe them, you miss out on the truth.

And really, I'm not tan or underfed but whatever. It's also not about you being "harassed". Stop playing the victim.

Good luck with your blessed life. If you still would like to go Greek, hopefully the links I listed will deflate your ego a bit.
