Is this the "suicide" thing?

The "suicide" thing is usually when a girl only lists one sorority after preference party. My chapter considered this a "partial suicide" and while I normally don't support suiciding because it can greatly hurt your chances of getting any bids I think that if your D is not comfortable with the 3rd house then she should not list it at all. Realistically - it is a possibility that your D is not high enough on the 2 favorites bid list to make a bid match so if she can't see herself in that 3rd choice then she doesn't need to list it at all. She just needs to make sure that she feels
that strongly about this house because it does lessen her chances of a bid and at a school like UGA the COB process is sometimes non-existant (especially at the stronger sororities) because houses are already at total. I wish your D the best of luck - I am sure that she will make the decision that is best for her. Best of luck for both of your nerves as you wait for tomorrow.
