Daughter is a legacy and was cut
Hello, everyone! My daughter is a First year, and went through Rush in the fall. She was shocked and hurt when she was cut by my house at my alma mater. I remember how hard it was to cut a legacy...we had to get special permission from our national office, and we had to have specific reasons to "release" her. She kept her head up, and continued to rush, but dropped out before Pref night when she couldn't picture herself in any of the houses she had left.
My daughter has been approached by some friends to participate in Spring rush.... evidently it's for houses that either didn't make quota or had girls drop out. These girls are at a house that she liked, but didn't love.
From what I've heard, her story isn't unique. SO many girls were broken-hearted after Fall rush. She's asked me for my opinion of what to do. Should she go through Spring rush and potentially pledge a house that she "kind-of liked" or wait til Fall and start over again with a clean slate?
