Over the past week, hundreds of students at the University of Alabama participated in Rush Week, vying for spots at the institution's coveted sorority houses.

Among them was biological male Grant Sikes, who identifies as transgender. Sikes attempted to obtain a bid for numerous sororities, but by the end of the week had been denied by all of them.

Following Sikes' unanimous rejection, Sikes shared a post to Instagram outlining Sikes' thoughts.

"Unfortunately, this chapter is closed," Sikes wrote. "This recruitment journey is over for me. Being dropped from my last house this morning during primary recruitment at the University of Alabama doesn't come as a surprise considering out of the almost 20 chapters – I was dropped by every single one except 2 before day 1."

"I'm hopeful of a future where everyone is welcomed for just being themselves – everywhere," Sikes continued, adding, "If you are going through a hard time today, remember that life is too short to ponder on the things lost. Choose happiness & always look for the positive things throughout life. Move on. See the good. See the bad. Hope for the best. Brave the worst."

While Sikes failed to get accepted into any sororities, it can be argued that Sikes came out on top when it comes to online engagement.

Documenting the journey to Sikes' 1 million TikTok subscribers, Sikes received countless views and comments.

On Monday, Outkick's Clay Travis applauded the sororities for their decision to safeguard women-only spaces.

"Roll-tide, good for them for standing up to this absurdity," he said. "Men should not be able to be members of Alabama sororities.

According to AL.com, "Bama's Rush Week went viral and caught the attention of filmmakers from Vice, who allegedly began working on a documentary about the event."
