rec. letters
Some of you are kidding yourselves by thinking that elevating yourselves to chapter advisors local alumni chapter officers will make a difference when your daughter/other relative legacy goes through. If you are talking large Southern schools, it will not mean beans. You all know that some chapters have configured themselves as all "Old South", etc.
I can speak of a girl who had personal letters from BOTH the current president and former president of her mother's sorority. (And I am speaking of a huge national.) Her mother had actually helped found a chapter of her GLO at a local college and was currently main advisor. Add to that that the chapter at the school the girl was attending had a field rep. there to help them because that particular group had "ended up 3rd choice on too many girls 1,2,3 choices in final parties. The girl in questions had nearly 1400 SAT, tons of activities, was beautiful and articulate, had been a deb at a Junior League ball, etc. BUT---she was FROM TOO FAR NORTH!!
S0--ladies--if letters and calls from your own national don't guarantee an invite back to prefs., nothing else you can do will.
