My heart is breaking! My daughter has not been asked back to any of her top choices since round 2. She is trying to keep a great attitude but I hear her dissapointment in her voice. She was asked back to two today and really loves one group but feels she has never clicked with the other. She just called and told me that she did put two down but really is only interested in one of them and will be dissapointed if she does not receive her current first choice. She is so exhausted and told me today that this has been the most stressful situation she has ever encountered. While she knows the end justifies the mean she has found the process to be so superficial and shallow. It is difficult to get through to an 18 year old some times that life isn't fair and what doesn't kill us makes us stronger!! On paper she was the ideal candidate, 3.7 30 act, at least two recs for each soroity, 2 legacies, and many leadership positions, activities, work history and scholarship awards. And yes she is outgoing, very attractive, and extremely charming. At least 5 from her floor have dropped out of rush completely. I know this happens and it seems like the addition of a few more chapters would surely help these great girls find a home! Keep your fingers crossed for all of these girls that wish to grow within the greek system at Mizzou
