because even if that PNM wasn't a fit for the chapter, we might love their roommate/hallmate/HS friend and we don't want them to say they felt uncomfortable or rejected at our house.

Right, and they are also guests in the rusher's home, and under the Golden Rule, they deserve a polite and gracious reception no matter what.
Years ago, another GCer said that when she was a rushee, one "hostess" told her flat out "You're not in the running" and told her to sit in the corner with a book. It wasn't exactly Southern hospitality. I bet that these rude "hostesses" consider themselves paragons of ladylike good manners, too.

While this does sound fun/awesome (I mean the part about calling the names, not the not hearing yours!!), it seems like it takes up a lot of time (like forever?) of the party that could be used to have longer conversations? How long did this take?!
And like others have said, it's crazy that you were left alone, whether it's because of rudeness or confusion, from the PNM's POV, it's the worst feeling!

I have always thought this too. Our school, and most mid-western schools, only do this for Pref. But, southern schools that have so many girls going through (and often pre-select their pledge classes) readily do this. Personally, I don't think its fair, but that's life in the Greek World.
And as for the crushed look on the Active's face, it's probably because she was assigned to someone her house had already pre-selected and all of the details she had to memorize. She was probably horrified that she knew nothing about RandomBri and would need to wing it

Belated congratulations to you Bri and Phi Mu! Raspberries are my favorite! I thought Raspbery was a different chapter because I thought another chapter was getting renovated.

Congrats! I was a Phi Mu at Ole Miss and guess what..........THEY LOST MY BID CARD TOO! I know exactly what that feels like! I had to go all the way back to Greek Life and sit there while they looked at all the bid lists to find my name. I thought I was going to die!
I'm a little embarrassed that the skit was that bad. I hope you guys have a good one for this year! Hotty Toddy!
