You haven't been around long.

It's ok to encourage other PNMs, but we try to steer clear of:

"OMG you're soo going to get a bid!"

"I know you're going to do sooo well at rush!"

and things like that.

Why?

Because we do not know if that's the case.

There have been instances in the past of PNMs not getting bids and feeling kind of hurt because GCers said things like that and it didn't happen.

Also, we really don't know these PNMs and how they'll do at recruitment, so why say that?

And really, who's to say that a PNM thinks she is any less pretty or something like that, just because she wants to shed a few lbs. She may just want to feel healthier. Weight loss does not always mean that a girl is starving herself to be in a sorority.
