So I wrote one, no problem. I told her it was done, heard nothing. Waited, then asked my friend. Apparently, as my friend apologized a bit to me (he wasn't in Greek life), the girl said she didn't give a you-know-what about my group, she was just told to get all the recs, and she wouldn't join my group if her life depended on it. Well. I wasn't happy. So, what to do? Can I rescind my rec? Just write another that's a no rec? Any help would be much appreciated.
Too bad you can't share what school and who she was. I'm sure many alumnae of the various NPC organizations would not want someone with such little class joining their organizations. I certainly wouldn't want someone like that in mine. I think that many women forget, as recruitment approaches, how much we all talk to one another and are actually friends. I have friends from pretty much every NPC organization. If any of them were treated poorly by a PNM, I would make sure that my organization knew about this young lady who does not know how to conduct herself respectfully to their fellow NPC sisters.
