Rec's are good to have, but they aren't a potential deal breaker like at other southern universities.
Unlike 10 years ago when 1 or 2 groups stood out for various reasons, the chapters are pretty similar now and there isn't a "bad" group in the bunch. I am still involved as an alumna and the girls out there are really top notch and getting more successful each year in every chapter.
Best part.....NEW HOUSES next year! It is going to be a very exciting year for the campus! You have good sources of information on here. My history with the campus as an alumna and past advisor. AGDLynn is a good source of information as a past advisor and BBelleADPi who's daughter is in a UWG sorority currently.
Good Luck!

Thanks so much for the info everyone! I feel like my girl has a healthy respect for the process. I am still active with my chapter @ UGA (I'll be helping at the house for prefs on Sunday) and her sister was at AU -not my sorority-so she knows to keep and open mind and not to zero in on one or two groups of girls. I suppose my source of anxiety is just the unknown. I am used to the hard hitting rush before classes begin and not the delayed rush-even though they do have a few events next week. By the way...what are those all about anyway? Is it to introduce everyone? Do the sororities use the opportunity to sort of "pre-select" ?
