My Formal Recruitment/Rush Story!
 
Tried to delete this, but I can't figure it out. I searched the FAQ's and it said the option to delete is probably not turned on for me or something along the lines. Sooooo that's that, sorry everyone! Too much risk/controversy!

perfectinpurple 07-16-2009 07:13 PM

Good Luck!

Smile_Awhile 07-16-2009 07:26 PM

I'm excited for you! However, you might want to edit a few details out- number of sororities, your state, etc. I could probably figure out which school you transferred to, and you never know who's reading GC. You don't want to shoot yourself in the foot before your recruitment experience even begins.

gee_ess 07-16-2009 07:33 PM

Ditto to what SmilieAwhile said. You don't want anyone to figure out who you are - and it would be easy.

Welcome to GC and we will be anxious to hear what you do this fall!

minDyG 07-16-2009 07:43 PM

Good luck with recruitment! Can't wait to hear your story.

love Chi Delta 07-16-2009 09:21 PM

I hope everything goes well for you!

DoctorD 07-17-2009 01:40 AM

good luck to you... it appears that you've done some editing already, but you may want to still edit more of your details. Your identity is probably still rather easy for someone to figure out.

Smile_Awhile 07-17-2009 02:27 AM

Court, it'd be great to tell us your story after it happens. I know many of us would enjoy it. :)

court4short 07-17-2009 02:30 AM

thanks smile awhile, i appreciate it.

AOII Angel 07-17-2009 05:27 AM

I think you made a good decision, court4short! Letting out too much info about yourself can be risky with recruitment. Many a PNM has made a seemingly innocent comment that is construed totally differently on GC. We'll be awaiting the details after the fact or either vague details as it happens!:)

loveandAOE 07-18-2009 02:06 AM

I think you did the right thing. There are some pretty nosy gc'ers here and I would hate for this thread to ruin your chances of getting a bid.

I hope you come back and tell us your story after recruitment.

Best of luck to you! If you have any questions along the way please feel free to post it on the appropriate board. Sometimes the search function doesn't answer your exact question or is not current [hello, there are a lot of threads on here from almost 10 years ago--times change]. Please don't be afraid to post, that's what this site is for! Just ignore the [sometimes] rude posters and you'll be good!

court4short 07-18-2009 06:47 PM

Thanks, AOII Angel and loveandAOE! I think it was the right thing to do, and maybe during rush I will post some vague details but definitely afterwards I would love to share my story. Thanks again everyone for all the support :)!

twinkle555 08-24-2009 01:12 PM

Court, when is/was your recruitment? I though you went to FSU, no?

KSUViolet06 08-24-2009 03:53 PM

If I recall correctly, court4short is somewhere in PA.

court4short 08-24-2009 04:30 PM

Haha, I only wish I went to FSU :) KSUViolet is correct - I'm in Pennsylvania. Recruitment starts around the first week or so of September.

Hey guys,

I just wanted to let you all know that BID DAY is today at 4:15 and I'm getting my bid from my Pi Chi at 3:45 (ughhh!)

Luckily, the two parties I attended for Pref were my two favorites from the first night and I'm so fortunate to be asked back.

I ranked them:
1. Alpha Phi
2. Zeta Tau Alpha

I will let you know what happens :)


(I posted in case anyone was curious, lol..not sure if anyone actually is!)

Psi U MC Vito 09-13-2009 01:20 PM

Of course we are. I'm sure everybody will want to hear the full story as well if you wish to share it.

court4short 09-13-2009 01:22 PM

I do want to share it...we'll just see if I'm not too lazy to type it ;)

Court4short, I hope you are having lots of fun at Bid Day! Please indulge us and scrape out a few paragraphs about your recruitment... when you get chance, of course.
