My daughter is a senior at an SEC school and is preparing for the final Recruitment experience. When she went through recruitment 3 years ago it was really tough on both of us. All of you are right about the parents having a tough time with their kids being "judged". She was looking to forward to a very positive experience; then, her best friend(at a different SEC school) was cut (she had a full party schedule through six party) by everyone!!! My daughter's expectations immediately changed. She was very nervous. THings worked out really well and she is a proud member of AGD.
Friday evening I get to go to Friends and Family night and see all of the skits that they will do during recruitment. I have been every year and have always become very emotional during the pref performance. this year she will be part of that and it will be just as exciting and emotional for me as it will for her.
I was part of that seventies group that someone has already mentioned and did not join a sorority. I always wished that I had. I have to be very careful not to live vicariously through my daughter. I can enjoy the experience though her but with no pressure on either of us.
