This is something we try to let PNMs know when they come to GC. There are no real guarantees in the world of recruitment.

I'm going to finish it up today, because this has been dragging on too long!

I go to info night for Alpha Omega Epsilon and fall in love. It's cool because everyone is the same major as me! (I didn't think it would be so hard to be the only girly-girl in an engineering class, but sometimes it sucks.) With that alone, I feel at home. The informational night explains the international organization and the chapter, which was fantastic as I knew nothing about either. After the third COB party I attended, I felt that feeling Kim felt with Chi Omega. It just fit.

I was invited to Pref night, which was beautiful. At this pref ceremony, I tried my hardest NOT to cry. It didn't work so well.

I accepted my bid and have been at home ever since. I wonder sometimes what would have happened had I done things differently, but I don't regret it for a minute! I love Alpha Ep and my sisters with all my heart.

Great story.

Question: What became of Legacy? Did she end up getting a bid to ADPi?

It sounded like it.

Is it bad to say that she doesn't sound like a sister that I'd really want?

Oh...I'd bet she learned a little humility in the process if she did pledge ADPi...some much needed humility!

Eventually. I ran into her at a Homecoming event and she was with the ADPis. She seemed like she had grown up a ton since Recruitment. Much more mellow and subdued and a heck of a lot less makeup on. I think by being "stuck" in a house she didn't want to be in, she did indeed learn a little humility and to be a good deal more real.
