Hello.

You're right. When people apply for membership and employment, the members and bosses/employers aren't looking for someone's child. LOL. That is, unless we're talking about nepotism.

See, you had me feeling badly for her and her awful day until I read that. It's pretty rare for women to go completely bidless, but that wasn't the case for your daughter. She had options, but from your own words above, I think there was a little bit of "not good enough for perfect princess" happening. Two chapters still wanted her. She chose to reject them.

One other thing to keep in mind. Deferred recruitment allows chapters to get a much better look at PNMs throughout their first semester. I know you don't want to think about it since she's your daughter and perfect in your eyes, but there may be some specific reasons your daughter wasn't considered for those "top houses."
