Bid night has arrived and every sorority girl in the quad will soon be breathing a sigh of relief after spending the last few months focused solely on the finer points of girl-flirting and, of course, promoting her chapter with every turn. And what better way to pimp out your chapter than wearing unofficial recruitment shirts throughout Fall Quarter? Naturally, we thought the best way to celebrate the end of rush was to give these shirts superlatives—high school yearbook style. Check out our nominations after the jump.
Theta: Cheesiest pick up line
The dedication to the Starbucks theme is admirable but “Caution: This beverage may be extremely hot” might be going a little far. You can do far better than comparing yourself to a latte, ladies.
Zeta: Best use of rap song
Hot pink, metallic letters, and our favorite middle-school-rap song; we’re ready to be crowned.
Gamma Phi: Worst use of a rap song
Although the “all the ladies in the place with style and grace” seems fitting, calling GPhi notorious is a little off the mark.
Chi O: Worst font
Sure, the shirt might be one of the cutest, but that font? Awful. That curly script hasn’t been cool since third grade.
KD: Most likely to be on your grandmother’s throw pillow
White and purple floral prints are super flattering on your grandmother’s chaise lounge. People? Not so much.
Pi Phi: Biggest tease
This one has some serious promise with the sleek design and witty pun on the front but once the girls turn around, it’s just a letdown with an odd looking combo of crossed arrows and Greek letters.
AChiO: Most changed since freshmen year
Reading, “Alpha Chi,” on the back of this shirt takes us back to the days when they were “A Chi O”. We guess there’s something to be said for reinventing your image.
DZ: most likely to be found on the side of an El train
The graffiti font seems more at home on the Red Line than on some poor sorostitute’s shirt.
Tridelt: Frattiest
It is only a matter of time before the sleeves are cut off this bad boy and a fratstar near you rocks it at SPAC. Not to mention Bob Marley allusion screams frat cliché.
APhi: Least memorable
With no cute sayings, metallic fonts, or really anything but the chapter name, APhi seems to be lacking on the creativity front. Or maybe they just realized that no one really wants to wear a tacky shirt anyway.
Kappa: Most meteorologically inaccurate
Palm trees growing in the snow? Seems right to us.
DG: Most image conscious
We understand that rush is a time to save face and all (hence: refusing to send us a pic of your otherwise very public shirt), but isn’t it a time to get your soror’s name out there, too? Oh, well.
