Little GoGo's Fall Recruitment

gogoaphi · #1 06-13-2006, 10:30 PM

So, the day that I have been long waiting for is about to arrive! My daughter just graduated from high school and is headed for college somewhere in California this Fall. Of course, she is going to rush and I'm cheering her on from the sidelines! I have to admit that I am feeling anxious about the whole thing and she is quite calm about it ... at least for now! Anyway ... stay tuned as "Little GoGo" takes her turn at Formal Recruitment. I won't post the school as I don't want to give it away.

And, yes ... there IS an Alpha Phi chapter on this particular campus ... so I've now narrowed it down to 22 possible schools!

Good luck to your daughter!!!! I too have a freshman going through rush next year and the legacy chapter is at her school. I am nervous as can be.....

Good luck to your daughter!
Any chance you will give another hint about the school? (hey, I got to ask!

)

Well ... I'm not asking her a whole lot about it because I don't want her to feel overly pressured. BUT ... I will say that she does like to wear the t-shirts and sweatshirts I bring home from my recruitment advising gig at another school in California. (So ... I've eliminated at least ONE California school for those who even know where in the heck I advise!)

I think she is so focused on her summer activities and spending as much time as possible with her highschool friends that she isn't thinking about it too much. She is cool like that. Takes it as it comes and always positive. I'm the wreck.

I swear it's harder on moms than daughters! - although they would probably disagree. I went through it twice with my daughter and I'm not sure which time was worse, the first time when we both cried (she to her dorm friends and me to my grown-up friends) at the perceived injustice of it all or the second time when she re-rushed and all I could do was hold my breath and think "don't hurt my sweet baby girl." Luckily, it had a happy ending and I hope yours does, too!

Amen, amen to what proudmom said. We other moms will be praying for you! There are several moms of fall PNMs on the boards this year.

Oh how exciting for you and your daughter.

I don't have kids yet, but I'm sure I'll be absolute nervous wreck when my daughter (thinking positive that I'll have a daughter

) goes through recruitment (thinking positive that she would go through recruitment, but with a greek mom, how could she not. LOL).

Are there any other sororities that she is legacy's too? Or just Alpha Phi? How would you feel about her not going Alpha Phi but some other chapter? Sorry, just curious.
