alpha phi uf

by: lol   

So Alpha Phi is coming to UF next Fall and periodically posts about how hot Alpha Phi will be and how amazing they are on the west coast, and that they are top wherever they go...they already deleted a bunch of contrary posts, and recently posted about how at Ole Miss "every top tier sorority at OM agrees that they're up and coming. tbh they pick off looks mostly, so yeah, they'll get a few rep risks and grade risks when they colonize at uf, but they'll be hot and move up in fast. look at any of their other chapters." Who do you think writes this stuff, it is the same self ranking theme everywhere, their nationals? What have you all had to deal with...is it like dealing with fake news?

APhi is nationally known as the hottest chapter, at every school where looks define tiers APhi is top. Whether people agree with their tactics or not, we've seen that their nationals themselves have chosen girls based primarily on looks. This actually works quite well at a lot of campuses, outside the south even their brand new chapters rise to the top in no time just because they're shameless about only choose the prettiest.

Look at their chapters elsewhere, ZTA and APhi are always #1 outside the south, east coast west coast everywhere in between even in Canada

UF: this is what you get to look forward to, shameless, over the top, constant self-ranking by a group that is obsessed with looks only. Enjoy.

It does seem kind of odd that the only attribute for membership to Alpha Phi seems to be "hotness" (according to the endless posts by what I am assuming are Alpha Phi members). That's certainly not what I was looking for in a Sorority, but each to her own. That being said I have met some nice Alpha Phi's and I try to just overlook the shallow comments from the ones obsessed with looks.

Just because you say over and over again that you're the hottest sorority and rising at Ole Miss doesn't make it true. instead of trying to convince everyone you're super hot why don't you get out there and support your philanthropy, sisterhood, and the rest of the Greek community??

No one said that they were rising, I think even aphi knows that looks isn't the key factor in tiers around here - I mean honestly to me tiers couldn't be less relevant when they're based entirely on tradition rather than active members. They'll never change and no one, except maybe like DG, suggests that they will. But hey, id rather be a DG than an XO or DDD, maybe tiers SHOULD change... But they won't.

If you look at APhi social media at different schools, you can see that they definitely have a "brand."

I'm biased obv but I don't think it's a bad thing. I think recruiting similar girls creates an awesome atmosphere and knowing that my sisters across the nation are all very similar to me is what I imagined a sorority would be like... then you have DDD who is either rock bottom or superstars, when a chapter like that meets sisters from another chapter I know they don't always share the similarities that we do.

wait but girl, are you that desperate to disparage APhi's name that you have to go lurk UF's greekrank about they chapter that HASNT EVEN COLONIZED???

Sounds more like APHI is lurking UF's greekrank about a chapter they haven't even colonized.

To @OP: not lurking UF, since I am a gator! Was just curious if what APHI posted about Ole Miss was remotely true. After a quick look here, it looks like it is not...and that the comments are pretty much identical to what I've seen on UF's greekrank. Still makes me wonder if it is an APHI alum (since the posts are all the same) or if APHI's most similar quality across the board is this odd boasting about hotness.

To X: no worries, GPHI just colonized at UF and as any new sorority would/should, tried to get the most attractive girls they could (just as APHI will). They did the best they could and took a lot of risks. They did get a handful of pretty girls, but not near enough (even with all the others they had to take) to be at similar total as the other houses. They are currently last in grades and numbers, and have had several reputation-damaging incidents along the way. Can't see it playing out much differently with APHI. APHI may go for looks, but there's only a very small amount available after formal rush and almost all are risky...maybe 20 (being generous). UF chapters have upward of 250 sisters...the math is just not in APHI's favor for a 100% "HOT" 1st PC, especially with no house. I actually wish them well, but the bragging about how they will be top tier in no time is strange.

Many of UF's top houses are Southern af, not at all like ASU/UofA. APhi may do fine there eventually, but if they come in with a west coast attitude it will not be an easy fit.

On a scale of Ole Miss to ASU you are leaning much closer to ASU sweetheart

Alpha Phi is simply not as strong a presence in the South. This is something they are working hard to change, especially in the SEC...but what makes a chapter really strong in the South (tradition/positive overall reputation combined with looks) is not necessarily what makes a chapter strong elsewhere (hotness only). UF doesn't have the same Greek tradition as Ole Miss, but it is SEC through and through. IMO, good looks but a bad overall reputation doesn't equate to being top or even middle at most SEC schools.

Lol, yeah, truly can't defend DG's rep, but I will note that they have taken a big hit in rank over the years due to their behavior. Used to be considered really good though, but sadly for them, not as much anymore.

Just read the post OP was talking about on UF's greekrank. I know we can't trust everything we see on the internet, but it specifically said the poster was NOT an alpha phi at Ole Miss, but her friend was, so why don't we give APhi the benefit of the doubt and not accuse them of self ranking on ANOTHER school's uncolonized chapter. It might help to be a little bit positive towards them since everyone seems to be so intrigued by bashing them lately.

By: Hi

Yes, because Alpha Phi's aren't known for being big self rankers. They are so modest and humble, and aren't known to toot their horn. They are just so damn HOT everywhere they go; everyone else can't stop talking about how HOT they are. Everyone else, please tone it down, you are making them blush.

Good advice, and based on your British spelling of "humour" perhaps you are British. If so, it is suprising you don't appreciate sarcasm, a pillar of British "humour." :)

If you scroll back you can still see posts where Aphi alumni or students from other schools (or Aphi imposters) came on here, slamming Ole Miss, our sororities, our student body, etc. Before Aphi colonized. The same kind of talk - how hot they were, how they were top tier everywhere, how they were going to be top tier on campus right away, etc.

It pissed off a lot of people here. Alpha Phine was one name that comes to mind - allegedly involved in the colonization process and following the chapter. I suspect that ^ is the same person as Alpha Phine. The weird thing about it is that all they seem to succeed in doing is making people REALLY hate on Alpha Phi. So I don't get the point of the posts. Unless it's just a pure greekrank troll, and that's certainly possible too.

Colonizing at Ole Miss isn't the easiest process. It's not exactly a welcoming community. You'll hear a lot of talk about "leftovers" and "grade risks" and "rejects," etc. Which is just flat out stupid because colonization takes place after rush. The pool of girls includes those who didn't get a bid, so....yes. You will have grade risks and "leftovers" in the mix.

Aphi has a selection process based on looks. If that's the right strategy for them, so be it. I don't really care. My house does just fine using our membership selection process, how Alpha Phi recruits doesn't really affect me. And really, who cares? Just enjoy your sorority.
