D was pretty adament about never joining a sorority (sp?). But because she was worried about making friends (she is OOS), she decided to go through rush to keep her options open. She found that some of the houses were stereotypical sorority b&*%$es and she had no interest in those houses, but she ended up finding one house that was a perfect fit for her and is very glad she went through rush. But even if she hadn’t gone Greek, she has made a ton of friends outside the Greek system and she has found MI to be very friendly. BTW, she is in LSA honors and they told her that the girls do fine with sororities, but that the boys who join fraternities their first semester usually pay for it with a bad GPA. I have no idea if that is true, but that is what she was told.
