UF recruitment is huge, as are the chapters. The probability that every chapter at UF will even remember PNMs that are going thru recruitment a 2nd time is slim. Remembering that they pledged somewhere will be even slimmer.

The sororities are so busy during recruitment that they don't have much time to talk to other sororities on campus, and they may even be told not to talk about recruitment with other sororities.

ABCD89, go for it. Your choices will most likely be much less than last year, but you never know. Good luck to you.

I don't think it's a matter of "everyone remembering her." In my experience, these things usually happen in two ways:

1. You have to go to the house you depledged from during first round. Obviously they aren't going to forget you, especially your pledge sisters. It will be a topic of conversation for them "OMG did you see Patti PNM is rushing AGAIN?!" Eventually they tell friends in other houses, they tell others etc. etc. Pretty soon lots of people know. Yes, even during a super big competitive recruitment, girls do manage to talk to people other than their own sisters.

2. During a party, a member will straight up ask you why, as a junior, you're rushing, if you've rushed before blah blah blah. You're going to need to have an answer for this.

Absolutely. Do not lie. Have a positive way to spin the truth.

Yep, that's exactly the scenario I was thinking. It takes about 5 seconds for someone to tweet and have it around campus...

I just used the word tweet as a verb. Barf.
