What a great story! I wish I had a bio sister as well now. I'll just have to hope for neices and daughters in my future. 
BTW the picture of you and your sister, too cute!

Those shirts are freakin' cute. They're throwback font without being tacky. 
Do all the NMs get the key necklaces or did you get it for her?

Thanks, everybody!!
No, the necklace wasn't a bid day gift - I don't think we could afford a Tiffany key for 49 people!  (Although luckily they make some pretty convincing fakes these days.) It was her HS graduation gift.
I honestly don't know if her legacy status affected her cuts. There were actually quite a few PNMs with sisters currently in the chapters (1 at Phi Mu, 1 at Kappa and 3 at Alpha Phi) and they all got into their legacy chapters.

Which, since there are 3 sororities, might mean that legacy status (since they are legacies to actives on campus) affected both cuts and bids.

I know I already told you on FB (and probably in another thread) but congrats to you both! I realize I'm jumping ahead a bit, but when is initiation? That will be so special to share with her!

Congratulations! My sister went through recruitment and ended up in my chapter. I'm also graduating this year.
It's been an amazing experience: I hope yours is too!

So cute. I like when biological sisters are sorority sisters too.
I have a question, though. You said you wrote this in real time but waited to post it... does that mean that you don't have to participate in silence with your biological sister if she's a PNM? That's a general, you, there, I'm genuinely curious.

So cute! This is what makes me wish my real sister was old enough to go through recruitment while I'm still in college.
LOVE the shirts too

I never had a sister. However, three in my pledge classes had biological sisters in the chapter, and it was great!

When I was a senior, my sister went through rush as a freshman. I was shocked and surprised when she chose Theta as her first choice. I thought for sure she'd go with another house who rushed her really really hard.
It was amazing b/c we are so opposite in every way. Interesting factoid: we had at least two sets of twins and several sister pairs during my time as an active.
Loved your story, the photos, the t-shirts & that necklace is adorable! Thanks for sharing.
