At this stage it would be really easy for a WSU sorority member to figure out who you were and that you didn't like her house b/c of the construction. That could negatively affect you during recruitment.
I know it's early to be ranking chapters, but I just want to be able to remember my initial impressions.

I would be surprised that my not liking the idea of being in a house that was going to have construction done would affect me negatively during recruitment. I'm just being honest. And honestly, I bet a lot of other people think the same thing. I'm disappointed to hear that chapters might cut you for saying something negative about the house even if they themselves share the opinion. Even my dad, after attending the partent Q&A told me I might want to consider that as a factor. I don't think it would be a major part of my desicion, I'm just telling you guys what was going through my mind.

Perhaps I shouldn't be talking so much about the houses, because I might give off the impression that I care about them as much as the women who live in them. But it's just hard not to say anything when you visit five mansions! And if you think that's an overstatement, it's not. I think all of the houses are beautiful, and it would definately be neat to live in any one of them.

Anyway, I'll try to be more discreet, but honestly, if a chapter wouldn't want me based on my honest opinions, I'm not sure how I feel about that. I don't think I said anything mean-spirited towards any of the houses.

ETA: Thank you for all the "hello"s people from the NW! And thank you everyone for the advice!
