Iowa State University Sororities?
Hey! I am going to be attending ISU in Fall 2011, and I am interested in the sororities there. Does anyone have any information for me? Any tips/advice/comments? I am very open-minded to all the sororities!
-Where to find recommendations? (If necessary)
-Recruitment advice?
-Anything else you have to offer!
Thanks!!!!
-Hill

If you're asking about reputations, then I call bullshit on the being open-minded.

I just meant from someone who can tell me from firsthand experience, someone who can describe the recruitment experience to me. I did google "Iowa State Greek Life" and it helped a lot, but the firsthand experience was never really described. I did find a lot on how popular being Greek is though!

Sorry I should have made my post a lot more specific now that I realize how truly open it is. I don't really care about reputation, I just want to get a general idea of where I might fit the best before I head off to Greek Getaway soon

If you're looking to win a popularity contest, you've come to the wrong place.

Oh no! On campus! Not that it would automatically make me popular or anything! I didn't realize how apparently dominant Greek life is on campus until I read a few articles from IA State students. No popularity contest here, promise.

The grave mistake you made was asking about reputations. The vast majority of the people who post regularly here have less than zero tolerance for that question.
The nice answer is that reputations aren't discussed on GreekChat.
I'm not familiar with Iowa State, but I'm sure someone from there will chime in.
Have fun!

Don't feel stupid.
Just browse the forums to get a feel of Greek Life in general. There may be some threads about Iowa State specifically, but you'll need to do a search to find out.
Good luck.

You will have no way of knowing where you fit by trying to find out reputations on the intartubes. That's what recruitment is for. Meet the members in person and you'll mutually decide where you will fit.

Thank you for the helpful information. I am just very nervous for Greek Getaway coming up soon.
Meeting the members really would be the most true way to see for myself which sororities I feel most comfortable with.
oh, I will also work on the overwhelming punctuation to those it seems to bother, that was not my purpose, sorry to you guys. But I like that it helps me learn what is not tolerated here, so
