I heard XYZ circles the fat on their pledges in front of fraternity guys. Is that true?

Hi. I want to form a sorority at my school even though my school does not recognize Greek organizations. Therefore we will just call ourselves a sisterhood. I think ABZ is super cool...therefore we want to call ourselves ABZD and use all their symbols!

In the XYZ forum:

"Hi girls! I'm a HS senior and I'll be rushing at So-and-so University this fall! I'm new to the boards, but I really like what XYZ stands for and I hope to be an XYZ this fall. I was just wondering if there are any XYZs that would be willing to write me a rec especially because no one's Greek in my family and I don't have any Greek friends. Any help would be much appreciated. ThAnKs!"

Two minutes later...in the ABC forum:

"Hi girls! I'm a HS senior and I'll be rushing at So-and-so University this fall! I'm new to the boards, but I really like what ABC stands for and I hope to be an ABC this fall. I was just wondering if there are any ABCs that would be willing to write me a rec especially because no one's Greek in my family and I don't have any Greek friends. Any help would be much appreciated. ThAnKs!"

No responses are heard. Just the banging of heads on the computer monitors.

My favorite is...

I just got elected rush chair. Anybody know any good rush slogans?

Although it has already been mentioned... can we have one more:

"I'm rushing this fall. What are my chances?"

Or...

"What's rush like at XYZ College?"

Ok, I'm NOT trying to cause trouble but name the top 3 frats at your college, because, UM, I LOOOOOVE the XZ's and the RQ's and the PYZ's caz they throw, like THE best parties. Who throws the best parties at your school?

my step mother nanny's next door neighbour was a xyz. Does that mean I'm a legacy?

Hi, I'm going to Big Central University and I'm going through rush in the fall and I'm going to be an XYZ!! I can't wait til I'm a member! Oh, and here's my forum group about it...

I have no idea what AOT means, of course, but every time I see it, I think of horse shows. At a lot of Walking Horse shows, AOT is used as an abbreviation for the Amateur Owned and Trained class. So I guess you could always bust that definition out on the nosy folks.

Maybe we should sticky this to the top for new posters: If your question is in this thread, you'd be best not to ask it....

AlphaFrog · #41 09-30-2005, 01:37 PM

Recent post just made me think of one--

I'm just curious, but please describe IN DETAIL the voting process EACH sorority goes through when deciding who to invite back/bid... I'm just wanting to know because I only talked to each girl for 4.342 minutes and how can that snobby girl I met on the way in have gotten a good look at my Lilly dress and Kate Spade bag from that???

We had to go get the ritual book and find it. Turns out it was in there, but I guess when you're being initiated it's a lot to take in so you miss some stuff.

I do agree that most of these are not legit, though.

After inititation, I had to sit down and re-read most of the inititation book cus i forgot most stuff cus I was so nervous, lol!

"I am going through rush in 3 days at a very competitive school. Can you greekchatters write me a rec? I'll PM you my resume and we can chat on AIM so you can get to know me."

(and of course, someone says, "SURE!" )

Some reasonable advice... If you're interested in Greek Life, contact the office of Greek Life at your school to learn about the groups that are represented on your campus, find out about the dates of recruitment (and what to expect at recruitment), as well as general stats for the chapters on your campus. Look at the national or chapter web sites.

Greek Chat is a message board, not a Sorority/Fraternity Bible. You'll get lots of opinions here. Just remember that every chapter of a GLO is different from campus to campus and even from year to year.
