I was in Sigma Delta Tau, but I deactivated when I was a junior.

Nope. Greek societies more or less don't exist in Australia, which used to really upset the American exchange students at my university.

Re: Sororities..

They aren't very strong in any other country besides USA, or that I know of. There are some in Canadian universities as well but they sorta get made fun of. Some girl wanted me to pledge but I think they are lame...

Re: Sororities..

Wasn't an option at my college and I wouldn't have rushed if I had the option.

My brother and some of my friends did the Greek thing. From their stories, I definitely could see some positives, but I also saw too many negatives for me to consider it.

Re: Sororities..

I was in one and I loved it. It's a small one, neither panhellenic nor AGC so it felt like family.

Pretty much, I personally find my uni to be very socially uninviting, unless you play sports or drink. I do neither.

Re: Sororities..

I did join a sorority (Zeta Phi Beta ) and am still part of one since it is for life. Some of my sorors are my best friends til this day!

Although the sorority stuff has pretty much took a back seat to everyday life...my experience was very positive, nothing like the stuff you see in movies. My sorority revolves around scholorship, community service, sisterly love and finer womanhood. I have nothing but positive things to say...out of the 6 ladies I am closest with, all of us have our Bachelors and 3of us have Master's. I'm not saying we wouldn't have did this if we wouldn't have joined but it was nice to support one another.

Anywho, this was just a snippet of my experience.

Re: Sororities..

I wasn't in a sorority, but I didn't really have an opinion on them either. I didn't hate them and I didn't want to be in one. I just didn't have the time to invest in it. I've met tons of women who were in sororities and tons who weren't. I have yet to meet someone who has struck me as what is defined as the typical "sorority girl". I guess I just feel like that only exists on MTV.

Re: Sororities..

<~~ Sigma Sigma Sigma!!!!!!! Had many wild nights, lots of fun, and some of the best friends i could ever find! But to be honest I really cant stand that some people think that sorority girls are just drunken sluts, because I'm sorry but the only thing that makes me different from any other girl in my school is that I rock letters. Can't judge what you don't know!

Re: Sororities..

I think the idea is cool but I would never make it in a sorority.

I don't fair well around a lot of women. They drive me nuts!

Re: Sororities..

My school is too small for sororities.. there are only 1400 people total in the undergrand and grad programs. The entire university is smaller than my high school was.

Re: Sororities..

If I were to go off to college, it would be something I wanted to do-but I am delaying college for a few years so I will be too old to rush when I do get there.
