Please do tell what you consider an "elite" school Low D. Also please tell me everything there is to know about Big Ten recruitments..I must have missed your affiliation to Greek Life and the Big Ten for you to be so knowledgeable about the subject!

Asking a question and agreeing that people came up with good examples in response means I'm presenting myself as an expert. Got it. I'll watch that in the future.

No, that is not what you did here. Way off base trying to connect those dots to make yourself right.

And now it is firmly established that you are going to have the last word, regardless of whether you are "right" or not. Personally, I absolutely insist on being happy, so I'm going to let you have your way.

You are not in an NPC GLO, as you yourself have stated, and it really is NOT helpful to PNMs or anyone else when you spout off. That, however, has not deterred you.

I don't think I could be any more blunt, but I do have a sledgehammer and a steam shovel in the back forty I can go get if this message doesn't get through to you. I'm not holding my breath *shrug*

Now, back to the topic of Indiana recruitment.

I'm actually friends with girls in an Unhoused sorority from one of my extra curriculars, that chose to rush Unhoused sororities only,because they didn't want to live with a bunch of girls. So I've been keeping an open mind about that. Because there are pros and cons to being unhoused. I think a house would be nice but I'd rather have a sisterhood over anything.

You cannot "choose to rush unhoused sororities only" in formal rush. All the NPC sororities regardless of their housing situation participate in formal rush together. If you can't afford or don't desire to live in a house you should not go through formal rush, as the housed groups do outnumber the unhoused ones. If the girl you mentioned joined her group through open bidding, that's a totally different matter.

Not saying this to you per se, just clearing things up for any other IU rushees who may be reading the thread.

I'm sorry I meant to say colonized. They chose to be apart of colonization to avoid formal recruitment and living in a house because they wanted the greek experience without living in a house full of girls.

As an active member who lived in the house and off campus, I preferred living off campus. Partially because I hated the cold dorm and lack of closet space, in all honesty. I do not believe that living in the house is the end all be all of sorority life. Living out allowed me to be healthier, therefore I was able to be a better member. I had a meal plan to eat at the house whenever I wanted and just made sure to put a little extra effort into building relationships. You can most definitely have a good Greek experience at Indiana without living in a house.

I hope that's true if I end up getting a bid from an Unhoused chapter or any chapter really. I worry no one will consider me because I have below a 3.0 but I have reasons for my tough first semester.( I'm not going to spew my sob story to any of them, because no one really cares and I don't want to be "that" girl).
