My Dad was all about it and encouraged me. He also supported me and helped talk to me when I called him crying the last night during recruitment. He was President of the PIKES when he went to my school - so he knows being a member of a greek org. can be really rewarding. When I drove home from recruitment he had DG letters all over my house outside. Hahaha - it was the funniest thing. I think he knew more about my sorority than I did before I went through my new member education process. I told him I really liked Delta Gamma during recruitment - and I guess he got on the wbesite that week and started learning the colors and the facts.
My mom didn't go to a school with sororities, and so she was very happy for me. She said she always felt like she missed out by not being able to join a sorority (but I am going to help her take steps to become an Alumnae Initiate of DG!!).
So, I guess I was pretty lucky. I really had no conflict from my parents about wanting to go through recruitment - if anything I had their full support. My brother is a different story. hahaha
