She secured recs and they were from all different sororities. She also was a legacy in Gamma Phi, which we did not realized until she questioned her great grandmother! Now mind you, her grandmother did not write a rec (she is 96), so the only place that was mentioned was on the questionnaire she filled out. I remember last year during rush how hard it was...knowing only one person at Bama and being out of state...She stuck with it and after bid day on Sunday (thinking she did not get the one she was supposed to be in) she absolutely fell in love with her sisters, a sorority who stuck with her until the very end....That is how the system is supposed to work..I cannot tell you how many times our friend emphasized that to us before Rush...my daughter found that out the Sunday night after rush.....you just can't drop out or quit just because you came in contact with a few of the reps from the sorority...
If you trust the system it will work....

This is so right. Being open-minded is really the key. Wipledale, I'm so glad your daughter is having a great time. She looked beautiful this week by the way!
That's so funny that she did not know she was a leg until she asked her great-grandmother!
