Some people just don't understand the AMOUNT of girls going through. I know if you told most of my chapter sisters that there are schools where 1000-2000 women go through rush, they would be absolutely flabbergasted.

We had one phone call where the other adviser and I were worried that it wouldn't go well. We actually held hands while she made the call. I guess you could call it a sisterhood moment.

I think that if a group or chapter is one that makes phone calls to alumnae, writing a script and perhaps asking an alumna volunteer, or volunteers to do so has some positives. Not only does it free up the collegians and alumnae advisors, but it does provide a bit of distance from the chapter itself, yet it is still coming from a sister.
