So, yes, I do believe that Greek organizations can be open to having moms as traditional collegiate member is the college and/or chapter environment is accepting as well as the member being accepting of the college/chapter atmosphere. It is definitley a 2 way street! |
I don't think it is dirty rushing....remember I tell all my "sisters"....an effective rush *begins* at home! I rush my daughters, I rush my nieces, I rush my cousins (who are all younger than me), I rush my neighbors, I rush teens at my church. I tell them all "Go Greek for sure, and if you can go Phi Mu"
I am careful when it is during recruitment and they are actually making their choices to avoid any problems.
When my youngest daughter was in Middle School, we would stop by any Phi Mu house along our way for a tour. One time we took a peek at the new floor being laid at the Purdue U chapter. I said "hopefully, one day you might live here" She said "what if they don't want me" I said "their loss then, you will find the right place, we can hope it is with Phi Mu". She is in her second year of nursing school (no greeks there) and when she finishes with her BSN, I will nominate her for AI as well.
