I'm willing to bet that her response will be be something in the vein of "you don't know me, you don't know what you're talking about, my mom and sisters have all told me that I'm guaranteed a bid!!!!!!"

If it's not I'll be really surprised.

I didn't catch the "our sorority" party. Technically speaking, it's not yours until you have that bid in your hand hun.

Well, we all have different policies re: depledging.

I can only speak for my own org and say that yes we can.

I'm not stupid. I know I'm not guaranteed a bid. But as for me not knowing house politics, I know them pretty well from what I've heard from my sisters and all of their friends. Both my sisters had the same view as me going into rush and it worked out for them. All my eggs are not in "one basket" but like applying to college you usually have a favorite. My families house is my top choice and I would be overjoyed to get it. If I don't I'll join another house and make the best of it.

Also I have no intention of treating other chapters poorly I've met and know girls in most chapters on campus I don't think poor about them but I would prefer to go where my legacy is.

Yes, but you'd have to do far worse than be obnoxious and arrogant. Policies may vary.

Then never say "our" or "my sorority" again.

Oh I know that for some NPCs it could require an act of God. But I was just pointing out that nothing is guaranteed, even if you got a bid card.

Haven't we heard almost exactly the same line before??? I forget which troll, but that's awfully familiar.

ASTalumna06 06-08-2010 01:13 PM

^ Yes, and it's true that people usually do have a favorite college when they apply. However, they also accept the fact that they might not get in.

And last time I checked, applying for college doesn't = sorority recruitment.

And to the OP - I'm pretty sure you don't know as much about house politics as you think you do. And I GUARANTEE you don't know how membership selection works (unless someone told you more than they should have).

It's pinging on the "my great grandmother founded the chapter/mom took me to formals with all the other alumnae/I'm guaranteed a bid" side of my radar. But she could still be legit.

Best of luck to you Gator*Belle as I am quite familiar with Gator recruitment and sorority life at UF. I do hope it turns out the way you are wishing for yourself.

I would never have gone around in my time saying -- "Plus it's the best house on campus with an amazing social calendar". Yikes! I am not sure what organization you are speaking of, but there are several at UF that truly have amazing social calendars. I know mine did, but to say one organization is the "best" on that campus is pretty tough to do. I would at least say "one of the best" orgs on campus.

In my time, we just kept what we thought to ourselves and between our sisters.

I'm running with the rainbow unicorn! Don't you wish you were me!

Anyone else remember a couple of years ago when the UF KD mom went in on everyone here because her perfect pretty princess legacy got dropped during recruitment? Ahhh ..... good times.

And yeah, I think "E" came galloping in on the same rainbow colored pony that a certain mustang riding volleyball player was riding.

OP, Seriously consider all the houses. Suiciding is the most unfortunate thing we deal with in Panhellenic at UF. It tears Pi Chis hearts apart, and a lot of girls who could do amazing things for and in a chapter they didn't originally consider - and its hard to watch year after year. Look at all the other houses and see if you can get letters for those. Letters aren't hard for PC women to do, just ask!
