When I was a PX, we took away the term "Suiciding" and replaced it with "SIP"--- single individual preferencing. We tried not to encourage SIPping-- but there were still girls who did it. Our reasoning was that the computer program we were using would kick out a SIP, and she wouldn't get placed, even if she was on top of the first bid list. Girls SIPped anyway, so we had to do a lot of hand matching. Ai caramba!

I am a die-hard fan of my sorority, and it made me very happy in college and now as an alum, but I know I could have been just as happy if I had gotten my second choice, or even my third. I encourage every PNM to put down two choices. I think of all the women who DID get their second choice and how happy they were. I know not everyone will agree with me on this, but I do believe everything happens for a reason in our lives.

Good luck Crystal. Whatever decision you make, we are behind you 110%!
