advice needed

After reading all this I think it's a miracle my D, who only had 3 recs, is in a fabulous sorority in a SEC school. (and it was one that she didn't have a rec for, so I'm assuming one was secured for her, and for that, I'd like to offer a sincere "thank you" to whoever looked at my D's resume and said "give her a shot".) You ladies are very generous of your time and talents in helping your local girls get squared away. I only wish it had been that way in the state we lived in. Kudos for all you rec-writers out there!

Last year my daughters went through a very competitive rush at a southern school with only 2 recs... one to my sorority which they did not pledge... and one other house...because we had an illness in the family and truth be told, I had not happened upon this website yet.
They had a very successful rush, I'm old it's hard to say recruitment : ).
They were not released by any of the houses and were able to pledge the chapter of their choice.
All this to say, it CAN happen.

Did we alert the vatican?

Really, though, that is amazing. At least from my very southern cut throat SEC rush perspective!!! One question...was it a delayed rush? When the girls are on campus for several weeks or even a semester before they rush (I refuse to use the term recruitment...too much work!) the actives do have some time to meet them and possibly acquire recs on girls that may not have one.
