“You pay for your friends”

“People rush sororities because they can’t make friends outside of them”

“They only do it to party”

Trust me when I say I have heard it all.

I joined my sorority late, and I was constantly ask why I had any desire to join one. It wasn’t because I didn’t think I had a solid friend group on campus and it wasn’t because I wanted to party all the time. It was simple because I wanted to become more involved on campus and I felt that being in a sorority was the perfect way to do it.

So here’s what you need to know:

  1. Lots of sorority girls are not rich

This was a huge stereotype for sororities that wasn’t at all true in my sorority. Most girls were paying for their own college, their own dues, rent and food. It is constantly a stereotype that sorority girls are loaded, and so they pay for their friends, but this just isn’t the case.

2. You don’t pay for your friends
