TexasMom, don't sweat it. This thread has just touched a lot of nerves, and I know that's not what you said. The key point to take away, and I think you did, is that your daughter never CUT a single house. She ranked them lower and expected them to be gone. And although we hate for any PNM to not give a house a chance, the fact is that there are times for a girl to decide on one (or two) or nothing. We just hope and reiterate ad nauseam that on some campuses "or nothing" can really mean no house, no Greek life, no 50 year pin, etc. And maybe taking that last choice house wouldn't be so terrible after all, particularly in light of what you get for the rest of your life.
I'm glad it worked out for your daughter, and I'm sorry she had to make a difficult decision when her expectation was to have 3 houses on her preference card, any of which she'd be happy to take. The reality is not that many girls have the perfect rush and end that way. Thankfully in her case it was just a few minutes of stress, and not having to decide whether to take the house she was offered or not.
