What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
Katie is a prized Delta legacy because her mother co-founded the sorority, but that inherited status becomes entangled with her exclusion and later move to Kappa.
The Delta-Kappa rivalry divides childhood friends Katie and Sara while also extending into the older generation's alumnae association.
Pledge week, sorority recruitment, rival houses, and alumnae politics organize the film's social setting and conflict.
The television-movie presentation emphasizes playful rivalry, broad social complications, and a breezy weekend-viewing sensibility.
