shifts in rank

I'm a PNM for August 2017!

Can everyone name the sorority house that's declining most dramatically and the one on the rise after this past year's rush?

-kd is slipping significantly and i think the biggest reason why is because they refuse to branch out in terms of what kind of girls they take in and where they come from, same could be said for kkg
-axo's reputation is kind of slipping, of course we all know they're top in grades and they're very involved but besides that, they've really neglected the other aspects of sorority life
-phi mu has slipped a considerable amount considering they're pretty hyped up. a lot of people feel that they're very vein, and they had about 30 pledges drop this year so take that how you may
-dz had a really bad rush this year and currently holds the title of bottom house

Agree KD and PM have slipped the most. I think AXO is still in the top four with KKG, XO and DDD.

The house to improve the most in my opinion is Theta. Gamma Phi has been steadily increasing too. Also ADPi. They've gotten some strong pledge classes recently.

I would agree that theta has appeared to improve (esp with GPA) but they probably had the most girls crying on their lawn on bid day this year. Kind of an odd contrast between what actives think and what PNMs want. Could start to backslide if they don't start impressing PNMs

i love how dz can't just sit back and be content with how they rank.. stop trying to bring other houses down. and no, I'm not a theta but its clear that dz is constantly trying to put in their two cents about how "awful" theta is. truth be told, are there girls that are disappointed when they get bids from theta? yeah, i'd say almost every single house has at least a few girls that're upset with the bid they receive. stop trying to call theta out for everything.

KD and PM are definitely slipping:
- In my opinion, PM still ranks in the top three along with KKG and AXO, however their reputation for being shallow/vein/etc is really hurting them. 30 girls from their freshman pledge class dropped, some say because of the hazing others say because of the drama, but regardless, if PM was that great of a house they'd have a better retention rate.
- KD is a very traditional house, in some ways that's great, but in other ways that's their biggest problem. The majority of girls KD take in are from Alabama or the surrounding states and they all knew each other from high school... So basically as the other person before me said, KD is not branching out. KD has the potential to strengthen their house by taking in more well-rounded PNMs even though they're not from the South, but KD just chooses to prioritize connections over basically everything else.

Phi Mu is not a top 3 house. It's a pageant girl house. Top 6 maybe.

KDs problems are more than just only wanting Alabama girls. They're weird during rush. No one in my rush group felt like the KDs even liked their own sisters. Because they all knew each other before college, there's so much extra drama and infighting that other houses don't have. They just don't come across as a genuine sisterhood.

Theta did great this year. And so what if there were upset girls on bid day. Every house has those. Did those girls stay through to inititiation?

Gamma Phi is moving in the right direction and ADPi has had some really strong pledge classes. Give DZ a break. All houses have "off" years.

First, let me say, every house at UA is truly amazing!

For houses in decline...I'd say Pi Phi didn't do as well due to lack of house.

AOPi also declined substantially and has been. Likely because of no house.

As for houses on the rise... I d say AGD, although not discussed much, is gaining strength. Just love them and what's best about them...they don't feel the need to brag about themselves!

I would also agree GPhi has risen considerably. Just hope they hang on when the other soroirities get their new houses finished. I kinda think they will given their improvement has been so strong!

i don't understand how AGD is always ranked well and is still considered old row. like they're so lowkey. i know a few alpha gams and don't get me wrong, they're all extremely nice and poised, but there's so much more that they could improve on. all their girls are from alabama/surrounding states so there isn't really diversity and they're not too active socially. idk it just doesnt make sense

I'm not in AGD but the beauty of their house is that it seems so drama-free. They're also not on here constantly defending themselves. I find their attitudes refreshing and I don't know hardly any of them! I'm guessing when I say this but I suspect they have a strong sisterhood!

Dear supposed 2017 PNM:
This is the University of Alabama.
Tradition is all important.
Sorority ranks don't change all that much from year to year.
As the post #2 says, all the chapters are top chapters in their sororities. You'd be lucky to get a bid to any of them.
