And while the posts may strike you as judgmental, let me say that they reflect many sorority members' reaction to pnms dropping out of recruitment. She has missed an opportunity, and the harsh reality is that she may not have another chance. Or she might. We don't know. Her chances are certainly much slimmer now. If she had her heart set on a chapter which does not cob, she has no chance now.

You can't handle the truth.

The advice to give your daughter? - Inquire about informal recruitment, go in with an open mind, and if it doesn't work out take advantage of the numerous other opportunities on campus.

eta - Please don't play the "If sorority women are like this then my daughter is better off without them!" card. That's so last year.
