Why You HAVE to be Greek

Hello, Tigers. It's become an emergent concern of mine, and apparently a number of others’ as well, that potential new members going through recruitment this fall may feel that dropping out of rush would be better than joining a lower-tier chapter.

Let me be explicit in saying: THIS IS INCORRECT.

LSU, along with Alabama, Texas, Georgia, Tennessee, Ole Miss, USC, Texas A&M, etc., are all schools of the South. This means that you must be Greek in order to have a social life. You will be astonished to find that not being Greek at LSU makes you unequivocally miserable. We all love the Bayou, and LSU has so much to offer a student, Greek or not. The fact of the matter is that Greeks without a doubt govern social order at LSU. Quite literally, actually, because the predominantly Greek 'Unite LSU' ticket is now in control of the LSU student government. It's plain and simple: if you wish to experience the full college experience at LSU, you have got to be Greek. The decision to be a GDI, is the path to collegiate mediocrity.

Potential New Members, I’d like you to do the following:

1. Go to the LSU Class of 2017 facebook page. (Click here to view)
2. Scroll through the posts.
3. Take a close look at the people who’ve posted on that page. Notice how they’ve embarrassed themselves beyond comprehension by doing things such as: asking the facebook group for social plans, sharing useless, ridiculous stories that aren't the least bit entertaining.
4. Now, think about how these posts make you feel: amused, and confused as to how these people aren't mindful of how much they’ve humiliated themselves.
5. Now please know that every single one of these absurd beings is a GDI. They are simply unfit for Greek Life, and that's why they aren't Greek. They aren’t Greek, because they CAN’T be Greek.

DO NOT allow yourselves to be categorized alongside these ordinary individuals because you didn’t get the sorority that you wanted. You will find your place in Greek Life, just as so many others have. You will sincerely regret the decision to drop out of rush. So many Greeks are unable to find an acceptable Non Greek, and therefore they stopped trying and stick to their own kind.

The only exception to this post would be if you were not a proper fit for Greek Life. In that case, you will certainly discover this during recruitment. My intent in continuing the legacy of the fallen LSU Greeks That Matter blogger is so that PNMs may know the reputations of each chapter. It is important for girls to know what each house is known for, BEFORE joining that house.

If lower-tier chapters are bothered by this website, and claim that it is inaccurate.. shouldn’t they be thanking me? If this site were to cause PNMs to pursue other options, wouldn’t that be the perfect filter for these lower-tier chapters? They clearly don’t want girls who would concern themselves with tier-rankings. Therefore, everyone wins.
