I don't see how marriage would be a factor if you don't mention it 
And they shouldn't ask.
Its technically not their business.

Are you on a campus without houses? Housed chapters would probably care if you are married, because it means you will never live in.

Well I've heard that it would be an issue from many, but it might not be. I don't really know what to expect from my recruitment experience. There have never been threads on here from my school, nor do I know much from the girls that went through it.
Our sorority houses are not live in. They are mainly used for meetings, socials etc.

I really like your code names, they take me back to elementary school days....
Question though: how do you not like a philanthropy? I don't think any of them are too politically charged or anything like that.
But good luck, I look forward to hearing your story in he fall!

Yeah, no kidding. And moreso than not liking, but to "absolutely dislike"? How do you dislike fighting breast cancer, child abuse, etc.??? Not knowing what sorority is in question, but being at least vaguely familiar with the various philanthropies of all 26 NPC groups... I can't think of any that are something that someone could "absolutely dislike"???
Puzzling.

I just want to say good luck but to also caution about candidness. There may not be many from your school who post on here but there are definitely lurkers. One that I know has a pretty good idea about who is who. It may not matter now since these are your preliminary thoughts but when recruitment gets going, you just never know.

Some people are turned off by Alzheimer's Disease research because they don't like old people.

Yes but even though some chapters go to nursing homes or life care centers, we're not running around touching old people all the time!
That said I could also see people being uncomfortable volunteering at the Ronald McDonald house for example. But that's not specifically the philanthropy itself. So I"m not sure what that could mean, and I guess she can't really clarify without giving away her code names...

What I really don't like about it is how the girls describe it. I'm sure I might have been exposed to an improper explanation by a certain group of girls. That explanation may differ when I encounter new girls, who may explain their involvement with their philanthropy differently. I maybe should have clarified that their involvement with it, is what turns me off. So please don't make me sound like I'm some sort of heartless freak who hates __________.
These are all just pre-rush notions, that I am positive will change once I meet more girls from each group. You can't make solidified judgements based on a small percentage. I'm looking forward to seeing them on a larger scale and truly getting a feel for what each GLO is like.
