My best friend's daughter went through Auburn rush two years ago and was cut from our own sorority just before prefs....we were not expecting that at all. That's why I'd love to know the policy now...just to be prepared. Fortunately, she pledged the ONE sorority that asked her back, and now, she's a vice-president and loving the leadership opportunity. We feel like she would not have excelled so well had she not been in a smaller chapter, so I'm believing that wherever my baby dawg ends up, that's her greek home.
The best thing about being greek in my book is the lifelong friendships you make. To me, the three year campus experience was great, but my sisters now have always got my back! Love the bond!!!
Here's to all of our UGAdaughters and Baby Dawgs getting to go where they will the happiest and most fulfilled...not just for four years....but a lifetime!

Thanks, Mama Dawg. Best of luck to Baby Dawg. In the long run I think she may be better off having some breaks. When I talked to UGADaughter today during lunch break (yes she called me this time!) she was exhausted (but of course enjoying second round very much -- I know I better add that). She was also becoming very confused. I tried to calm her down and just remind her to be herself, try to keep her options open, and enjoy the ride. I hope it helped. One thing she said was that the girls who seemed to have fewer parties today were, like Baby Dawg, legacies to UGA sororities. The theory is that other soororities think they won't get the girls who will likely go to their legacy sorority. Of course, in the long run that legacy will likely be a good thing, but it may be limiting in the early stages. The fact that UGAMom's sorority is not on campus at UGA probably helped with second round invites, but it may not be so good later in the process.
Anyway, what do I know? Best of luck to your daughter.
By the way, I answered candiceena by PM -- I'm adding that because I didn't want folks to think I didn't respond.
I hope all the UGA girls have had a great day today.
