First sentence: ON SORORITY ROW, SORORITY girls stepped cheerily into their houses, many of them followed by fathers loaded up with boxes or, in the exceptionally good-looking cases, towing beefy undergrad boys just barely able to see over the duffel bags full of clothes and stuffed animals they dutifully hefted.
Description: A look inside the world of sorority life offers an eye-opening view of the drugs, psychological abuse, promiscuity, racism, violence, and other problems that are rampant among young women in a typical sorority.
