My sophmore year, identical twins went through and their mom was a XO- lucky for me- they both pledged because one is my best friend/soul sister and the other is my daughter!

My senior year another set went through and one went XO the other Delta Gamma. This was tricky because we really adored Amy but her sister just did not seem to fit in. We had no idea if they wanted to join the same sorority or not so I think we spent too much time at the parties trying to find out if they were rushing "together" or making up their own minds. It ended up happy because I realize now that the sister "did not fit in" because she really loved Delta Gamma. She seemed so moody at our parties but after I saw her with the DGees and her huge smiles all the time- I knew her heart belonged there and both girls were happy with their choice!

P.S.- for those who think sororities just pick on looks- identical twins are proof that we don't. Two girls looking exactly alike can easily pledge two different houses.

Last year we had a set of twins go through Formal Recruitment. One of them ended up joining my chapter and the other went AOII.

A set of twins came through recruitment this year. These girls weren't your typical really close twins. I mean, they didn't hate hate each other, but they were very much into doing their own things and having different interests. Apparently, their mother used to be really big on them doing identical things when they were little, so as they grew up, they really tried to be individuals. They went to different high schools and had completely different sets of friends.

They were put in the same group (since they are divided alphabetically), so they went to the same parties for the first 2 days when the PNMs visit all chapters. My sister was their Rho Chi and said that they got REALLY annoyed whenever a chapter would mention something about one of them having a twin. They got really sick of:

"Oh hey, your last name is ____, is Suzie _______ your sister?"
"OMG that must be really neat to have a twin."
"I bet you guys are like best friends."
"Oh wow you guys look just alike!"
"So do you guys like to dress alike?"

They were so annoyed that they started saying things to rushers like "Yes, I have a twin, but I really don't feel like talking about her right now." I can somewhat understand this because recruitment is about YOU as an individual, and I'd be pissed if all my rusher could ask me about was my twin sister.

In the end they ended up in 2 different places and they're both very happy.
