Seriously...even if someone did figure out her school and her code? How on earth are they going to figure out exactly which girl is princesspeach unless her name is princess or peach! Peach - you should still go in with an open mind! You may be the girl that the lower ranked chapter's need to help them get back on the right foot and change things for the better. Besides you never know where your "home" is!

Seconded.

Also, struggling chapters often get untrue rumors of hazing thrown at them when that is not the case AT ALL. If you want to know whether or not they are on social probation, the Greek life director should be able to tell you.

Examples of how a GC PNM's identity was found out...and the consequences of that happening.

I'm going to assume you're new. That said, don't assume, even for one second, that GC is anonymous.

Yep, those were definitely trainwrecks! OP, I also recommend editing your posts and using discretion.

Whoa!

Calm down guys. Thanks so much for your advice and concern. I have taken plenty of precautions to prevent anybody from figuring out what school I go to. Yes, I am new but I have been lurking for a while and have read several threads about this. I realize that my opinions will quickly change once I have actually visited the houses, and that's precisely why I posted my feelings now- I wanted to be able to express the whole process I am going through. I do not intend to reveal my state, school or the names of its sororities to anyone now or after rush, not even through PM.

I would like to continue to post my story, throughout rush, unless you don't want to hear it.

On GC, she has referred to her regional area, the size of her school, the number of sororities on campus, named one in particular, her class status, clues about her gpa and extra curricular activities, and some potentially identifying info about the chapters that someone on that campus might be able to connect.

The problem is that she has posted admittedly preconceived notions on the chapters. If you were in one of those chapters that she has identified as "known for partying and bad grades", "struggling", "stuck-up", without her even have gone through rush yet, what would you think? Like it said, her post screams that she isn't going in open minded. And that's too bad.

Because she gave conversation details about her COB experience last year in a chapter. The people in that chapter could remember her, and they have friends in other chapters. Members (even of different orgs) talk. The fact that she is a sophomore also narrows down the pool of PNMs that she could be.

It happens. You may not be stalkerish or clever enough to put the pieces together, but others on this board have proved otherwise time and time again.
