Each party before today was great, with strong conversations and really feeling a connection with every girl she talked with. She was on cloud 9 going to the final party today. But, after the party, she called me in tears. The girl she talked with today was totally unengaged kept looking around the room and made no effort to connect. She's worried that this girl "holds all the cards" and all the other positives until today are meaningless and she won't get a bid. I wasn't in a sorority, so I have no idea of what to say to her. Any thoughts? So appreciative!

That girl doesn't "hold all the cards." Your daughter's final placement on the bid list will be based on all the visits and interactions she had during the process. It's unfortunate she had that experience today, but maybe the active member was tired or more introverted. It might have nothing to do with your daughter. Tell her to stay positive and also be happy that she liked the other house she visited today, too. She should be pleased with receiving a bid from either chapter.
