twocutetx - I'm glad you found your home, however, many here believe that Alumnae Initiation is not just something people who either didn't rush or have a successful rush in college do. It's an honor given to women and men who the groups feel are outstanding examples of what their ideals are.

Which means it's not something that any Jane or Mary should "reach out" for... it's something that is given to them.

There was a time here not long ago where random people would come on here and post "Oh, sorry you didn't have a successful rush, there's always AI!"

When there ISN'T always AI.

AI is not just something you wake up one morning and decide to do.

Or "keep on reading because you too can be an AI!!!" because that isn't the case.

It's been said that GC has created a market for AI. All of a sudden random people doing internet searches who didn't fulfill their college dream of joining a sorority find it and are bombarding HQ's with calls about AI. Not only are they calling 1 GLO, they are calling 2 or more trying to find out which ones will take them and that really isn't the spirit of the program.
