going to drop totally
by: What to do
Hear me out. I can't talk to my roommate or girls in my group anymore about this. Some got released, some are sad, some are insanely excited.
I had 5 houses this round and have met some amazing girls Id love to be friends with.
Just the greek thing still just doesnt feel right for me. I always though it would. Prettyish, popularish and involved in everything.
I just don't want to turn in my rankings and go to pref when I know my heart this isn't something I want to do. I offically dropped out.
Also there might be a girl who wants this more than anything and my name is right above hers.
I know I might regret this but I'm going to have 4 years here and if I do regret it then I can join when and if it feels right

I know there are other actives who will tell you the cliche "give it a try" spiel. And while I do agree that sorority life is something that a lot of girls do have to get acclimated to, if you genuinely feel that this isn't for you then you should drop. You're the only one who knows yourself completely and if you have this kind of gut feeling about wanting to drop then you should listen to it. You can ALWAYS rush again if you feel that you made a mistake. But like you said, give the spot to another girl who IS excited about Greek life. I hope this response doesnt sound too cynical, but the honest truth is that Greek life isn't for everyone and if you're not 100% dedicated to it then you'll end up just wasting a ton of money and time.
Good luck :)

Being unhappy is no fun and even less fun when you pay several thousand dollars for the honor.
For those "into" it is worth every penny but it takes a truly wise and brave person to admit it is not for them and move on. You will have more time to find the things you do want to do.

I love greek life and think it's amazing, but even though "there's a house for everyone," that's only true for people who want it. If you know in your heart greek life as a whole isn't for you, more power to you! I totally support you. There are great girls who aren't greek, and it's commendable for you to make this decision with the understanding that you'd otherwise be potentially taking a spot away from a girl who really wants to be there. At a school where greek involvement can seem like the be-all, end-all of social life and involvement, this is a very mature stance to take.

Good for you. A strong enough person to know you don't need letters to define you at a school that seems to put such emphasis on it. You will be fine. People that only look at you because of your affiliation with Greek life are not worth your time. It's a big campus with a lot to do.
