Glad to know that, MaryPoppins. There's just no excuse for bad manners or rude PNMs!

And you'd think at a school with such a competitive rush they'd be on their best behavior. I can't fathom being rude like that.

Unfortunately, there are some girls who go into recruitment thinking they are too good for certain sororities who act snotty to the actives during the parties at those houses. What the PNMs don't realize is that ALL the sororities are good at Ole Miss, but they only listened to the "tent talk" or "status quo" sorority reputations on campus. Too bad for those girls. They missed out on experiencing what real sisterhood is all about.

Speaking of rude PNMs, a few weeks ago there was a post about a PNM and her rude (off the wall) roomate. I think she was attending Ole Miss. The thread has since been deleted. Does anyone know what happened?

Another thing these PNMs fail to realize is that, believe it or not, we all talk to each other. And we do watch each other's backs (at least in my experience). And it's not just at the alumnae level, but at the collegiate level. Word gets around faster than the speed of light.

She said her campus had 8 chapters and Ole Miss has 9, someone suggested to me that it might have been Samford U. in Alabama. Would adore to know how that instance turned out.

Want to know also
 
So what happened to that thread about the super PNM...it was a good story and curious to know how it turned out....:confused:

AZTheta 10-04-2012 08:58 PM

The thread went way off in the wrong direction, unfortunately... I doubt it'll resurface & would be surprised if the OP comes back, although I would like to know the outcome of her rush.

Samford has 5 chapters, so it probably wasn't Samford.

I wish she would return too -- I was really looking forward to her rush story and finding out where she pledged. I doubt she will return, however, considering the criticism sent her way.

Agree that it wasn't Ole Miss. I noted in the thread when she specifically mentioned the number of chapters (which I remember as fewer than 8) that it ruled out Ole Miss. Yet, I think many of the other readers were quick to assume that she was at Ole Miss. Several even stated that "everyone" knew the school she was attending.

I just went to quote her from that thread, but guess what? Poof! It is gone. Oh well.

I wish her well.

MaryPoppins 10-05-2012 08:02 AM

I've sent that GC PNM a PM to check on her. Will advise if I hear back.

MaryPoppins 10-05-2012 08:11 AM

Here's a real conundrum. Big-Little gifting. Managing behavior and expectation in this arena is difficult at best. And across campus chapters it's just insane. Any ideas? Please discuss!

Hey, could you start a new thread on big-little gifting? I'd like to read it and put in some thoughts!

Done. It's in the Greek Life Forum.
