A lot of the girls were really supportive of the fact that I was a junior. I know a girl who graduated last year, and she said half of her pledge class was juniors, so I feel better about everything. I'm just so excited and can't wait until formal recruitment starts!
I'm sure it's an exaggeration, but it definitely made me feel better.
Exaggeration or flat out lie indeed.
From all the stuff I've read here...I may be out of line for saying this, but there's NWIH half a pledge class would consist of just Juniors at Ole Miss or any SEC school for that matter.
Possible that the girl was in a spring pledge class that only had a couple of people? That still wouldn't explain a WHOLE lot...and, from what I read, I don't think any Ole Miss sorority would bother with a whole NM program for a couple of girls.

You have to take what your friends say with a bit of a grain of salt. They want you to participate and sometimes they might exaggerate a little (or alot) just to make you feel better about rushing.
While I've heard from Ole Miss sorority alumnae that sororities are taking a closer look at pledging non-freshman PNMs, I am pretty sure that no sorority there is taking a class anywhere close to half juniors.
