WOW, to an open question!

First if you do not like them and just because they may have a big name, or are big on campus, don't.

If you find a fit, then join! Life will be better!

College is such a short term compared to life after college.

The very best of luck in your Greek Quest!

I take it you're a collegiate woman from your screen name. Are you considering joining an NPC or NPHC organization? There may be differing advice, depending on this.

I take it from her screen name she's also black, has shoulder length hair, 5'5'', age 19, and wears a c-cup.

Ok, so first, be sure you ALWAYS wear pink panties because they DO check. If you're not wearing them, you won't be allowed to wear ANY undergarments for the rest of pledging. Also, DO NOT under any circumstances let the goat die. They'll give you one to take care of until initiation. Also, you should try to keep it as healthy as possible because you're going to have to drink its blood.

do not ignore your good common sense! don't talk smack about anybody behind their backs no matter how much you dislike them. i promise i always comes back to bite you in the behind. most importantly if you are completely miserable dont go through with initiation or your college experience will be that much worse.

There's no such thing as an NHPC organization.

If I were you, I'd worry about the 2 more years of high school before worrying about joining a sorority. If and when that day comes, make sure you bring your snarky attitude to the interest meeting.

What sorority are you interested in, by the way?

sorry that was a typo i meant NPHC
and i respect your opinion about worrying about the present instead of the future & all but i have my mind set on this and it's not taking away from my education neither has it become a hinderance, so why should furthering my knowledge about something i have my mind set on be pushed aside?
also i dont mean to come off as having a "snarky" attitude...my guards were just up from reading other posts where people have serious questions and are answered with useless & petty remarks

Kudos to you for having read other posts, but read a bit more and see if you can figure out why "serious questions" sometimes get answered with useless and petty remarks on this site. There is a reason for it, and it'll go a long way in making this site useful to you in your attempts to glean information about maybe joining an NPHC group when you get to college. If you do this, you will truly be wise.
