Lakemom- I had a local alum of a sorority call me during my daughter's rush to evidently "get a feel" for what my daughter was thinking and to find out what houses she was going back to. I politely gave her NO information. I told her my daughter liked them all and she changed her mind a lot during the process (true)!! I could not believe that she called me but I am shocked that an alum would call a PNM DURING RECRUITMENT!! Not only is that wrong it is about the rudest thing I have ever heard of. PNMs have enough to worry about without something like that being put on them!
My daughter went through a similar experience to your daughter. She went back to 3 houses for pref and really liked them all. However, one of the sororities really laid it on her and told her that they would all be crying if she wasn't at their house on bid day and that they would come find her and kidnap her ! I know that this was just an attempt to let her know how much they wanted her but it REALLY turned her off. Your daughter will be happy whereever she lands and all the "rush stuff" will be forgotten in a few days. I have been on the other side of rush and will there are disappointments there are no real hard feelings. If there are then it is the other girls who are being unreasonable!
