Sororities in boulder?

I've been looking online at the websites of all the different sororities, but online they all look the same to me. Is there anything anyone can tell me that the websites DON'T say so i can differentiate between different sororities?

Sure -- some are really close to campus, and some are a LONG walk. Some are much larger than others.

That's a question nearly impossible to answer. I have two kids at CU. My D is a junior/senior who didn't go Greek. It didn't fit with who she is, she had/has nothing against sororities. My S is a freshman who pledged a fraternity, and he has had a very positive experience. Both have former high school classmates and current friends who pledged CU sororities.

For every thing I could say about a particular sorority's "reputation" (i.e., "hot" girls, party girls, brainiacs, etc.), you would very likely meet someone in that sorority that does not fit that mold. If you think you might be interested in going Greek, I encourage you to go through Rush. It's held in mid-September in the fall and in mid-to-late January in the Spring. Visit all of the houses. Talk to a lot of girls in each house to get a feel of what those women are like. Also talk to the women that you might potentially be pledging with to find those that might mesh the most closely with you as well. Your pledge class sisters will be important to you, as you will be spending a lot of time with them. A lot of it boils down to a "vibe" that a particular house just feels right for you.

Sorry to not directly answer your question, but a fraternity or sorority is much more than a single face or character. They are made up of individuals, and if you join a sorority, I can guarantee that you will love some of your sisters and not feel so charitable toward others. It's all human nature. Participation in Rush and trying to get a feel for where your people are is essential.

I wish you the best of luck.
