My daughter is on the inside this year, so I can well understand what you parents are going through with Recruitment. It is hot, your daughter has just arrived on campus, and they are overwhelmed. I will tell you the quality of young woman who is now attending UGA is really setting a very, very high bar. These girls must be stellar to get into UGA. I heard the acceptance level is about 3.9, so these are all great young woman.

My daughter tells me each house is looking for those special young ladies. It is really hard with the beastly hot weather to shine. The sisters want to make a good impression as well. They KNOW what it is like on the sidewalk. They do have their favorites, but I heard repeatedly about girls who just bloomed during recruitment. They talked, they were funny, they really clicked with their hostess. As in any friendship, if it clicks, it works.

Your daughters will get through this. It is an ongoing process of adaptation and adjustment. They will find their spots and they will shine. Tell them their sisters are waiting for them and they are just as nervous and excited.
