Only a couple regions to go, but while I expected some gorgeous ladies in the South, West, or Midwest, I was surprised at how well these back-east babes turned out in Fall 2015! Smart AND beautiful, these pledge classes might have put em all to shame....

You have made one of the biggest decisions of your life to go to college. Congratulations! However, that’s not the only decision that you’ll have to make when it comes to college life. Another important decision that you’ll probably make is the decision to go Greek in college.
