We unofficially tracked this- and it was amazing. I remember that out of the 50 women in my pledge class, 40 of them had preffed the same other chapter.

Wow! That was our biggest problem - our pledges preffed almost every other house. We said that was because we had "broad appeal".

I'd say most of our NMs pref 2 of 5 other chapters.

I am so glad you went through recruitment and found a wonderful home. I looooove all of the diversity and acceptance. My school isn't that willing to do that, sad, bad. I liked this and like Sigma Kappa and amso pleased you love it so much. Great thread. Great ending. I hope lots of PMNs that don't fit the sterotype but who are great girls and would be great sisters read this one. Congrats and thanks alot! LOL

WOW that sounds like a pretty disorganized recruitment! I graduated from UMD in Spring '02 so 2 years before you got there? I was a Rho Chi my Jr yr and I had my list of girls by New Years and had sent them all letters well before school started again. I think I would have cried if I was in the same situation. I totally went back to help that year too! I missed the second day of I guess what would have been tours then because I wrecked my car on the way to College Park..........awesome LOL!!!!!!!!! And I can guess which chapter was mine but I wont say. A lot of things you said really made sense. I think things are probably a little different now, but yeah

I did cry! That's one of the reasons I wanted to be a Rho Gamma, to make sure at least 10 girls going through recruitment knew what was going on!
