ISP
When my oldest daughter was going through recruitment she called before she signed her card. She asked if she should go "suicide". I responded with the question "Do you want to be Greek, or do you only want Alpha Gam? She was at a relatively non-competitive school and knew that she would get a bid to Alpha Gam. I don't know until this day (she was a PNM in 1997) what she decided, but I do know I explained to her that being Greek was more important than the GLO. I won't tell you that I didn't want her to be an Alpha Gam...
When my 2nd daughter (same school) wanted to put another GLO as her first choice in 1999, it hurt. I gave the phone to her dad, who knew what they system was like as I was a member of the VST. I don't know what he said, but she also pledged AGD.
The next year, my 3rd daughter was cut by the other 2 chapters on campus before pref... she really didn't have a choice. In 2003, I was truly surprised that the other 2 chapters carried my 4th daughter to pref along with Alpha Gam. To make the story short, as my 4th daughter put on her AGD letters, her comment was, it's about damn time.
ISP would have probably been a viable choice for my daughters, but I could never recommend it.
