A lot of y'all have already heard this story, so this is for the newbies:

We had a 5-generation legacy rush our chapter - the first generation was actually an Adelphean! We were duly impressed when we got her rec, along with a letter from EO which basically said, "You have zero choice here!" Oh, when I say 5-generation legacy, I mean just that - in several of those generations, there were 4-5 ADPi sisters!

All well and good - but this woman did NOT want to be a greek. She went to the minimum of rush parties, made minimal conversation, and when asked, said, "I was told to rush or else." She was very nice, she just didn't want the greek scene.

We put her at the top of our list, and she accepted our bid (along with her roomie). Again, she put the minimum amount of time in that she could get away with, but it was obvious that her heart wasn't in it. We got another letter from EO, informing us that she would be initiated at Convention, we were not to worry about her. She was initiated at Convention, showed up long enough to get her photo on the composite, and we never saw her again.

But we did get her roomie - who was a FANTASTIC sister!!

So, I think she's a prime example of overdoing it.
