Sorority life has not always been Lululemon and bid day YouTube videos. Take a trip back in time through this photo gallery that includes photos of sorority chapters from each decade since 1880. It's fascinating to see how not only how fashion changed throughout the decades, but also the changes of the poses and general mood of the photos. Apparently, the first time a sorority girl smiled in a photo was in ...

Junior year, I had a thermodynamics exam on a Tuesday and hadn't slept more than four hours in three days. I was ready to just grind it out alone in the library like I always did freshman year - before I joined. Then my brother Marcus, a mechanical engineering senior, sat down next to me at the chapter house kitchen table at 10 PM and said, "You're doing the energy balance wrong."
