Dropped Pledges Re-rushing
Hi all, my question is more out of curiosity than anything, as it is a situation I have never been in myself, nor do I recall my sorority having to deal with it:
If a girl drops from pledgeship before initiation and decides to go through the next formal recruitment (assuming that it is one year later, she is elegible, and the process requires you to go to each house for at least the first round), how does the sorority she dropped usually handle that PNM? Or, rather, what does/did your sorority do?
Be polite the first round but not plan on having her back and assume she wouldn't want to be back? Give her a clean slate and recruit her like she had never pledged before? Try extra hard to make her want to be a part of your sisterhood again?
I guess I'm mostly curious if sororities usually acknowledge that the girl had once pledged or if they pretend like it never happened.
If you have dropped then re-rushed, what was your experience like at your old house?
I'm not looking for names ("OMG XYZ was so mean to meeeee"), and I hope I'm not creeping too much into 'membership selection territory', I am just wondering how a delicate situation like that might be handled.
