Well this isn't about being cut during recruitment, but I think it's why I didn't get picked as a Rho Chi for next semester. I went to the interview and it was going GREAT! I mean, they (Panhellenic Pres, VP: Membership, and Rho Chi Educator) asked all the right questions and I had all the right answers! We got along great, they were easy to talk to and everything...THEN the last question they asked me (and this was more in just casual conversation than in interview style), "Why didn't you RUSH as a freshman?" I jumped right in with the honest answer, which was that my freshman year roommate was rushing and was totally psycho!! It gave me the impression that sorority girls were going to be similar to her. I told them that apparently the sororities saw how psycho she was because she didn't get a bid anywhere...well then, they laughed (relating to bad roommate experiences) and asked who it was...I told them the girls name and then the Pres and Rho Chi educator looked at each other and suddenly stopped laughing...apparently, my freshman year terrible roomie rushed her sophomore year and was picked up by their sorority!!! Talk about foot in mouth disease!!!

Edited to add that after her sophomore year, the same girl transfered to another school and was denyed affiliation with the chapter at the transfer school.
