Coming from a very small chapter, I cannot even comprehend what it must be like to have 150+ sisters. That's SO MANY GIRLS to talk to, to learn about, to form bonds with. You cant (and wont) be best friends with everybody in a chapter that size but you can most definitely find some friends that you value.
If she depledges, she has to wait a year to try again. And being an SEC school, chances of getting a bid as a sophomore is probably slim to none. Your daughter has approximately 5-8 weeks to decide if this chapter is the one for her. If, prior to initiation, she still doesnt feel the connection, then okay. But 1 1/2 days after bid day without HAVING the time to meet all of the new sisters, (and
getting to know them) is really unfair to those sisters. If she didnt want to be in that chapter, she shouldnt have listed them on her preference card. But she did, so she *should* give them a chance. There were several girls who didnt get that option. There were several girls who didnt get a bid at all.
