I want to emphasize that I am incredibly thankful for all the new friends that my sorority has brought into my life this past year, but also not fail to remind everyone that the greek system is inherently exclusive, and with that holds MANY many problems. However, these are my reflections and tips for those who may be considering greek life or who have recently rushed and are trying to navigate the crazy and often times frustratingly superficial and political world of college greek life. I hope the people this video reaches are able to take my experiences and learn from them, or at least apply some parts to their personal situations to give them more of a perspective on what their greek house involvement means to them and to others.

loved this so much! you covered a lot and I deeeeeefinitely felt a lot of the things that you mentioned.

[@joelleolol]

awh thanks so much girl I really appreciate it! haha I'm glad you feel me greek life is such an interesting world to navigate ahha

[@TheresaTrends]

AYEE JTEAM! And yess love the lighting hehe & your jewellery as well!

[@TheresaTrends]

this is all so interesting cause there's nothing like this in Australia! What does it mean by "rushed" ??

[@joelleolol]

hahah ILY GIRL thank you!! and "rushing" is like the process of choosing/ getting chosen for a greek house! that's so interesting it's cool to hear about australian vs american university life haha

[@stephaniedoan3374]

you're so incredibly articulate! thank you for the great insight!

[@joelleolol]

of course!! thank you for your kindness!! haha

[@prophetsophee3795]

Hi Joelle, thank you so much for this video! I'm applying to Dartmouth this year and I really hope I get in. I'm from China and my parents were really concerned about the Greek life (due to the drinking reputation) and they rubbed off on me, but I watched your video and I feel like it helped so much. I think your video was super informative on the Greek Life at Dartmouth but also like, life as a whole haha :)

[@joelleolol]

Aw thank you so much! I'm so glad you found this helpful! Best of luck to you with all of your college applications!!!

[@theplantainchiplover]

14:04 this is literally what I tell all my friends! If you don't like something, and you can do something about it, then just DO something about it and stop complaining lol edit: just wanted to say that you are such a genuine and (seemingly) loving person, Joelle! everything you say resonates so much with me :)

[@joelleolol]

aw thank you SO much- you have no idea how much that means to me!! and ahha share this video with your friends!! show them it's not just you saying it;) haha

[@asiajadewalker]

Love your lip colour girl ❤️

[@fredericavonsiemens6956]

I might have missed it in the video, but what sorority did you join? Love your videos!❤️

[@fredericavonsiemens6956]

Also, were you friends with girls in the other sororities?

[@joelleolol]

I'm in kkg! and Yes my friends are in all different sororities and a handful of them didn't rush!

[@yixuannchann4970]

You are really gorgeous!!! (I'm also thinking about Dartmouth in the future, wish I can see you then :)

[@joelleolol]

why thank youu!! and omg exciting! feel free to hmu if you have questions about dart!

[@agcc1014]

I was just wondering- Im leaning more against rushing any sororities, so do you think I would still fit in at dart? I’m not really a party girl, I am terrified of joining a sorority that hazes, and I just don’t really feel like Greek life is for me. You always mention how Greek life is a very big part of Dartmouth, and my dad and uncle were both in a fraternity at Dartmouth, so do you still think I would fit in ok there? My friends describe me as an extroverted introvert, if that helps at all.

[@joelleolol]

don't be so quick to categorize yourself!! I'd say greek life is for anyone who wants it. Hazing/ being mean isn't a thing in sororities here, they're all really supportive and all new member activities are 10000% optional. If you want to get to know some girls and think you'd like the people in greek life, then rush! if you're happy without it, then don't!

[@samanthadavis6967]

Have you heard of Kappa Phi? It is a National Christian club that thrives on inclusivity that is structured like a sorority. I know that Dartmouth doesn’t have one but it can be started there. If you’re interested you can check out kappaphi.org and/or contact me. I’m on the board for a chapter in California. Everything that you have mentioned that are your concerns and stuff scream Kappa Phi!

[@shreyam5515]

is greek life the major way to make friends? or can you still make good friends through clubs and classes?

[@joelleolol]

ehh it's definitely a place to make friends, but most people make a ton of friends outside of greek life through classes, other extracurriculars, etc.

[@shreyam5515]

Joelle thank you!!! it’s kinda amazing to see how friendly dartmouth students are because i’ve been commenting on dartmouth vids and all the creators have been so prompt in replying and so helpful! it’s such an amazing community that i hope to be a part of soon! hopefully i’ll get in!!

"can we at least just pretend or can we at least just not be mean"

[@elizabthchan]

Role model :*)

[@joelleolol]

awh thanks girl :') ily

[@danieljohnson3172]

Joelle What the best Greek life for a male?

[@joelleolol]

hahah unsure what you mean sorry! I don't think there's such thing as "best greek life"

[@danieljohnson3172]

You know the age limit Greek life.
