As for being in a group with another PNM when there were other actives, let me tell you that it all works in a system and those sisters might have been busy with skits even if they did not look like it. Doubling up is normal and usually the active knows that she will have to double up. It is not all the actives fault. Not to put down TBSG, but you have not meet her and each chapter did and decided that maybe she was not the best fit. Maybe she did nothing wrong but we did not either.
Sorry to rant on here but don't knock things you don't know a thing about. Besides, don't you initiated members of your respective sororities tell me that you have never made a mistake or dropped a PNM. We don't get sore when PNMS drop us for other groups that might be better for them. It is normal and expected, otherwise all the sororities would just initiate anyone who walked in the door!
I understand your position TBSG but don't blame us completly for how things turned out. As with all else in life, things have a reason for working out the way that they do.

Annie, is it your sorority TBSB is talking about? If so, I would hope that you would take our sincere criticisms of the chapter's rushing skills (or heinous lack thereof) and try and put them to good use next semester so that some other rushee isn't put in the uncomfortable position TBSB was.
Before you get your panties in a twist, please know that I'm not knocking things I know nothing about. I've been participating in rush since you were in about second grade, including teaching chapters how to do it correctly. Soooo, I know what I'm talking about.
We're not saying those sisters were horrible people, we're saying they were horrible rushers. It's pretty obvious during rush when you scan the room what conversations are being dominated by one rushee or are otherwise laying an egg. That's why we have floaters.
If any truly interested, eager rushee leaves a sorority house feeling like crap,
THE SISTERS DID A POOR JOB . Period. My collegiate chapter could have been rushing a triple legacy at our biggest rival, but believe me when I say I can guarantee that she would have not left the house feeling like her questions weren't answered or we weren't interested in making her feel comfortable.
Someone is a guest in your home; you make them feel welcome. It's called "common courtesy".
How dare you kick someone when she's down? That's just plain rude.
