Sorority
의미: A social organization for female college students with Greek letter names, rituals, and chapter houses.
Sororities are the female counterpart of fraternities. Members form tight-knit sisterhoods with matching T-shirts, philanthropy events, date parties, and lifelong bonds. Sorority recruitment (rush) has become a TikTok phenomenon — 'Bama Rush' videos get millions of views. 'She is in a sorority' signals a social identity. Sorority culture includes Big/Little (mentorship pairing), chapter meetings, formal dances, and community service. Like fraternities, sororities face criticism about exclusivity and conformity.
