Whenever I tell people what sorority I am in, they just ask “what’s that?” I am in a sorority that is Asian interested, but not restricted to only Asians, of course. After being in my sorority for almost two years, I realized how different it is from the Panhellenic community and how unknown it is. So, here is a little glimpse of what Greek life is like when you’re in an Asian interest sorority.

1. EDM, and LOTS of it

Before joining my sorority, I barely listened to EDM. In fact, I pretty much hated it. Now, you’ll find me at least one EDM music festival every year and going to numerous concerts at Canopy Club. This is because most of the people in Asian Greek live and breathe EDM. You can’t help but get sucked in.

2. “Scroll!”

This is what you constantly hear at parties. Those who are older than you get to scroll you, which basically means you have to take a shot from them if they say “scroll.”

3. Line jackets

Ever see those windbreaker-like jackets with huge greek letters on them? Yup, those are line jackets. We usually wear them at UGC events to “show off” our letters or you can practically wear them anywhere your heart desires.

4. Probates

Unfortunately, we can’t run to our house on bid day. We have to keep it a secret until our probate. A probate is where the new members are presented and it involves some history of our sorority, stepping, revealing ourselves and who our big is.

5. Bubble tea

You will often find a group of us bonding and getting boba together. How else do you think all those bubble tea shops on Green St. are surviving?
