USC’s ruthless sorority tactics exposed in hunt for A-list offspring — and the billionaire daddy’s girl who joined

Former University of Southern California sorority members say recruitment can favour wealth, celebrity connections and conventional ideas of beauty, raising questions about fairness and inclusion. Their accounts describe a competitive process in which houses seek high-profile recruits while applicants are assessed and ranked.

One former member alleged that houses sent gift baskets to Natalia Bryant and Sasha Obama, though the claims could not be independently verified; Bryant reportedly joined Kappa Kappa Gamma, while Kylie Rubin joined Delta Gamma. Former members also described rating applicants on appearance, including one house reportedly voting on Instagram photos. USC recruitment involves visits to all nine Panhellenic sorority houses, with applicants and houses ranking one another over several days; accounts also included reports of insensitive remarks and an exhausting schedule starting at 7 a.m.
