I posted a thread a few weeks ago asking about rush, and got a lot of helpful responses. I was wondering if anyone could give me some insight on this dilemma I'm having (Or this situation that I'm kind of psyching myself out over!)
As most people already know, there are just as many people who dislike the greek system as there is who support it. Obviously I'm interested in going greek when I transfer to ASU, but I've had more than an earful from others around me (Family and friends - mainly friends).
I'm not usually one to psych myself out when it comes to what others have to say about my decisions (Such as going greek) but recently a friend told me the only girls who are able to keep up with the greek system are the girls who come from rich families and don't have to work while going to college. - I don't come from a rich family (They're not poor, but I know for a fact they can't afford to pay for sorority dues. - And I've always worked while I was going to school to pay for my own stuff, even in high school.)
I really didn't pay much attention to what my friend said at first (I brushed it off as her trying to talk me out of joining a sorority). In time though, I did start thinking about what she said, especially the last month or two since Fall is approaching. Sororities have events nearly every week at ASU from what I understand; meaning outfits for the events - like formals (Which adds up along with tuition)
As I said before, I'm psyching myself out about all this, and was wanting to get a word of wisdom from those who know about ASU sororities (Or even greeks who attend other large universities with active sorority events taking place around their campus) Is it hard to keep up with the greek society if you work? Better yet, are you looked down on if you don't come from a rich family?
