LOL! I think we all get a dose of culture shock every year on GC when we read about how different schools do recruitment...whether it's the traditional southern school where ladies spend $1000 on recruitment wardrobes and scramble to get 19 rec letters, or the the liberal, nontraditional Northern colleges where ladies go through with flip flops and ripped up Urban Outfitters pants and Paul Frank t-shirts.
I'll tell you that I'm sure my Northern roots showed when I once told a story here about how one of my sorority sisters was annoyed when she received a recommendation letter for a PNM... she said "Well isn't this a little presumptuous. I think I can pick my own sorority sisters!"
Being an experienced GCer, I quickly set her straight...but she had never SEEN a recommendation letter before! They're certainly not common at some Northern/Midwestern schools, that's for sure
