You should at least make the girl pay for lunch who's coming for a rec interview

That website is a hot mess. I don't know that I'd be trusting two ladies in pink feather boas to advise me on my wardrobe, but hey - if they're making money, bless their hearts.

But if they are sorority alums and they help during recruitment isn't that a recruitment infraction, and if they aren't sorority alums - don't they have an awful lot of free time?

It looks like Geocities.

Seriously. I think I need to quit my job and drop out. I've found my calling.

Thinking about this, it kind of sucks because you KNOW that Average Southern Suzie PNM is probably not going to utilize this. It's the clueless out-of-stater or first generation college student with no one to go to for advice who is most likely to pay for this, not knowing that everything they're offering, you can do on your own. They're also most likely to fall for the "we guarantee it" thing.

You could get them through rush, then plan their wedding with their new bridesmaids that they've just found. You'd be like a personal one-stop high-school through MRS Degree survival shop. LOL

You know, I'm not so sure. I could see some "real" Southern belles (as opposed to out-of-state/first gen/even first gen SEC moms) doing this as well. Rush was a BIG deal in my hometown, which sent tons of young women to UF, Auburn, and Bama. Even though they were sorority women themselves and ostensibly knew what was up, they'd really go all out to make sure their daughters had everything set up.

I could see some of those women pay for a consultant. That said, if they did, the consultants would have to have a much better set up than these ladies do. Pull in some recent alumnae from a range of schools, teach the PNMs strategies about not suiciding and really keeping an open mind, and this might not be so crazy.

Their website is a little busy. Serif fonts don't really work in multiple colors.

That's a great idea! It could help defray the cost of keeping GC up and running... lol

And their web site makes my eyes hurt.

So that means we need to keep the snark to the second page or later. Unacceptable.

I want to know their credentials. Where they went to school. What group they joined. How many campuses they visited. What is their success rate?

(The "migrate" comment really tickles me!)
