aphi

HOWWWWWWW is Aphi ranked higher than theta? seriously after their scandals and their reputation even before that I just don't get it? Stop trying to say they might have a better rush because we all know no Pam in their right mind is going to want to join phi after everything that happened no matter how hard nationals purged their chapter

Theta will have their day. Their problem is that while they have great grades and accomplishments they put on a bad rush, whereas aphi is exactly the opposite. Most PNMs only know what they see during rush week. I’m sure the new house will help them like it helped gphi.

I agree that Theta did not rush as strong as many of the other houses and I did not rank them as high as I would if I were going through knowing what I know now. I thought my house was all perfect girls and was flattered that they wanted me, then I met all of the sisters my house hid upstairs. Many (most?) houses marginalize some of their sisters (their legacies that they had to take or their OOS grade boosters or connected girls that were pulled in but don't look like the perfect bama girl).

Looking back, what you see is what you get at Theta and a few of the other houses and this could look less "perfect" than many of the houses who don't value all of their sisters and hide some away. I know when I was on the other side I was shocked to see the lengths that our house went through to make us all appear exactly the same and it did a lot of damage to friendships and our house when girls were told the weren't good enough.

You'd be hard pressed to find a girl who would rather be a theta than an alpha phi..... thats why

Alpha phi was the one house I would have dropped if I got them on bid day and many girls in my rho chi felt the same way. Now that I’ve been here a few years I would add other houses to that list but that was my view as a PNM.

I would say that maybe on bid day that could be true because of sites like this but after spending a few weeks on campus, I think most greeks would completely disagree. They do get their "type" but not sure that any PNM aspires to be known for what they are known for. On the other hand, everyone is friends with Thetas and knows they have a strong sisterhood.

Why they are ranked on here higher:
Known for being the “hot/fun popular girls that frats like”

They are a relatively young chapter here (Installed in 2009). When they colonized they made sure to recruit a lot of pretty girls. But since they focused on growing a big chapter (which is necessary to compete here) many of their new members had lower GPAs.

They became the up and coming chapter. They worked hard to become favorites with the fraternities.

And they built a big beautiful new house as did most of our chapters.

So they surpassed some of the other chapters that had more well-rounded women/chapters.

Whats this? Are any of us who rank on GR any better than APhi? Most of the GR posters are sorority women, and every ranking over the past year AND since "the incident" has put the looks house much higher than the house everyone says is admired for integrity, grades, and friendliness. In fact we make sure that house stays at the bottom! APhi fits right in with our whole way of thinking here. Look in the mirror ladies!

I think it’s pretty obvious that those of us who value grades/involvement over looks are not going to take the time to make a ranking and put it on here because that by nature is very superficial

Someone already used the word "superficial", so I'm going to run with that and say maybe Theta became what everyone on here says is the friendly house with integrity and a strong sisterhood because of their low ranking and old house. Consider that many, many PNMs base their decision on superficial things like GR ranks and shiny new houses. (Come'on how many times have you seen PNMs post the houses they want before meeting any of them?) So maybe being at the bottom has its benefits - no superficial members. Honestly, they should hope they stay at the bottom, hope those "crying on bid day" drop, and it is too late now, but they should have kept their old house too! What a radical recruitment strategy.

No one wants to be in Theta because they are at the bottom. They take too many OOS, too many overly focused on academics, and too many plain looking PNMs. APhi should be ranked higher. They are hot and fun!

They are more desired by pnms. It is as simple as that

So everyone secretly loves Theta and now they are suddenly going to get noticed by PNMs and rocket out of last place on the ranks to mid tier and Aphi is going to drop like a to rock to the bottom? I will agree Theta has made some respectable choices (Yawn) that we all seem to admire, no machine, grade picks, friendly, etc. BUT NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN! They have been doing the same stuff since I've been here and they are still at the bottom and now they do not have a house! Aphi cleaned house and although they take grade risks, they are very well liked by frats. Aphi will not fall lower than a couple of places in the ranks and will have a fine recruitment. Respectable is boring. Most of us could have gone to a respectable school, but we came to Bama to have fun!
