Right. Again, here is what I will re-iterate.

When asked does a girl who attended one of these camps have a better shot at getting into a "Big Six" sorority than a girl who does not, I will say Myth.

Now, going to this camp and getting exposure to the sorority girls is wonderful. I am very familiar with Camp Mystic and Camp Longhorn and can tell you, if I see something like that on their rec, it is nice to know that they have qualities that can be similiar to sorority life. Here's the thing. If camp is the ONLY thing they've done, I would strongly worry about them socially, as it looks like they took no interest in their peers throughout high school.

Again, it ALL goes back to the quality of that girl. If she went to camp and is a demon on wheels, no one will want her, regardless of her pedigree. I also have seen some big chapters take girls who had NO legacy, small town, down home girls who were some of the nicest women you could meet.

I think at the end of the day, it's a nice thing to put on a rec.
