Seminole Dad, it's good to know that you're okay. Don't worry about not keeping us informed, but I'm sure I speak for others when I say that it's a relief to read that you and your family are safe and sound.
Hang in there with the rush thing, it's almost over and I'm sure things will turn out the way they should. I can't imagine the nerves of a parent waiting the results of their daughter's recruitment, but having read your incredibly supportive posts I'm quite sure Starlyte is a young woman who can handle things with grace. Family is the truly important thing in life and it seems like she is blessed with a great one. Thanks again for letting us know you're okay.

You mentioned that your daughter is shy... it reminds me of a girl I sponsored this fall who went through a very large rush and was very nervous about being too shy. She ended up only attending prefs at 2 houses and got a bid from the one that was her first choice all along! That just goes to show that being reserved may not make for a full party schedule, but the houses that are a true fit will recognize that it's just Starlyte's personality.
I can't wait to find out how it went!

update
I would like to tell you more about my daughter's rush experience. I know some of you are waiting to find out what happened. In response to dramadawg, I wouldn't exactly call my daughter shy, but I guess that I wonder whether she went all out with each rush interview. There isn't much time and I think there may be a little "luck of the draw" with regards to who rushes you. She went to 5 sororities on thursday. She really liked three out of the five and she liked one other somewhat. So at this poing she has the potential to be invited back to five that she really likes out of 9. I don't know how anyone could really know with such short meetings. I'll post at work tomorrow for sure and let you know what happened friday.

Yes, it is. I think he is trying to keep the element of surprise still by recalling piece by piece, his daughter's recruitment experience.

I know I'm late on this, but I thought I'd jump on board and agree with everyone else- it's so great to see a dad's POV! Your daughter is very lucky that you are taking so much interest in her life and what's going on with her :-)
I hope everything's been going well for her (and you!)!!

I'm a little late too to this thread, but seriously it brought warm fuzzies to my heart hearing rush from a dad's POV.
I think it is soooo sweet that he started this thread.
You rock!!!!!
since I am a little late, I hope all went well for your daughter.

final result
Sorry to take so long to post. I might as well tell you what happened. She was cut by more prior to skit day. That was friday. She attended friday and loved one and really liked a couple more and didn't care for the others. She was invited back to 4 houses for preferentials. She listed two and she got a bid at her first choice. It was Alpha Chi Omega. I hope she is happy. Looking back, she told me initially that she really liked them at Icy waters, then I didn't hear much at philanthropy days and then she loved their skit. She has been meeting with the girls and went tubing with them last saturday and attended the FSU/Miami game last night with them. Thanks for listening and if you have any questions, I'll try to answer them.
