^ My esteemed fellow Ohioan is quite right.

Best thing to do this year is to prepare for next year, meaning get involved on campus (paper, intervarsity, something!) and try to meet/chat with a variety of sorority women on campus*. Practice discretion in your actions (tabletop dancing at the Omega House Oktoberfest, not advised), and of course, FOCUS ON YOUR GRADES! You can be the best person out there, but if the grades aren't there, you're stuck. And try to secure recommendations for each sorority by contacting your local alumni panhellenic.


*and by chat, I mean just chat. Sorority women are supposed to talk about Greek life to PNMs in Panhellenic terms, meaning overarching, broad information. Don't put them in a sticky situation by asking about ritual, or membership selection. Make genuine, friendly, open conversation. It gives you a better idea of what they're REALLY like, outside of a rush situation.

Good luck with school!
