- Typically the srat look consists of chacos and big t-shirts. But even people who are not a part of Greek life still dress that way because we live in Arkansas. It is the natural state and we like to be comfortable.

- 2021 July 25, Jennimai Nguyen, “Tesla channels old school sorority values by policing customers' social media posts”, in Mashable[3], archived from the original on 28 July 2021:
- Apparently, the situation isn't unique to srats. If you post a complaint about Tesla to social media, you might get a similar request to delete your post. […] If Tesla's gonna act like a sorority on overdrive, maybe they shouldn't tell their customers to post the very comments they want to take down. At least srat standards boards have clear guidelines!
