Go Greek! Even if you don't think that you're the sorority girl "type," just try it out. Pay the small fee to go through recruitment and I promise it will be worth it. Maybe you're thinking, "what if I don't like it?" So what? Nobody says you have to join a sorority at the end if you really don't want to. Just go through recruitment and learn the truth behind the reasons why you should.

1. Even if you decide joining a sorority isn't for you and you drop out of recruitment, you still meet some amazing girls. Sorority girls may have a negative reputation portrayed by the media, but when you go through recruitment you'll meet girls that are strong, inspiring, and absolute fun to be around.

2. You meet girls that share your interests and values and then you become sisters. Once you find your niche, you hate to be away from it and find yourself feeling like you could take on the world with your sisters.

3. With that said, you find your home away from home. Your sorority becomes your family and support system, especially while away at school. Sad? Call a sister and she'll be there to comfort you and help you finish a pint of ice cream. Happy? Call a sister and she'll be happy with you and even go out with you to celebrate. You're never short on people that love you and it's a wonderful feeling.

4. There are some pretty awesome themed mixers. Every Greek community across the country has different and unique mixers and my favorites were Mathletes and Athletes as well as the ABC (anything but clothes) party. It's fun to see how unique and goofy people can get with their costumes, even though it costs you some weird looks when you're leaving your dorm room. And is there a better way to get cute pictures to put on Instagram? No...the answer is no.

5. You will make memories and friends that last a lifetime. Before joining my sisterhood, I didn't realize that it truly lasted a lifetime until we went to brunch with some alumni. At my table were two women in their 80s and they told me about how they were best friends and sisters in college, they were in each other's weddings, and now they're neighbors in their cute beach neighborhood in St. Augustine, Florida. Adorable, right? That's what going Greek will do for you.
