"New Directions" SEC Glee Recruitment '10

[atrianglepi]

I promised Dora that I would not give any specifics about her parties until recruitment was over. That being said I wanted to tell everyone about the CUTEST shirts they wore the first day. The shirts were Garnet and they had a charm bracelet design. Each charm represented a different chapter. A lyre for Alpha Chi, an owl for Chi-O,a lion for ADPi, a quatrefoil for Phi Mu, a dolphin for Tri- Delt, a turtle for DZ, a cresent moon for Gamma Phi, a key for Kappa, a crown for Zeta and what appears to be a leaf or a flower for KD. I would attach a picture, but my daughter's nametag would be in it and I want her identity to remain secret. Also in the story Artie and Mr Schuester are phantom chapters, they only existed to throw everyone off her school. I have typed up her impressions for the first two rounds and will post them when recruitment ends. Today is the first day of classes, so no recruitment. Hope everyone has a great day!

Sounds really cute! Excited to read more about Dora's recruitment

[keysgirl]

Looking forward to here more of Dora's story.

Go ADPi!

Today is Prefs, thank goodness. I am not sure I can handle any more stress and I am just the parent. Go Dora! Have fun at your parties!

Since today is bid day it is safe to now post Dora's story. Going into rush she had no opinions about any of the chapters. She went in with an open mind. That being said she hoped to get a bid from a house that put an emphasis on academics. Dora went to college for an education and not to party.
First Impressions

KURT- Dora loved Kurt. She was introduced to the President. She felt the conversations went really well here. She really wants to be invited back to Kurt.

BRITTANY- The conversations were awkward here. The Brittany girls found out she was in a certain campus activity and tried to tell her exactly what she should do with this activity and she was turned off by this. She felt they were trying too hard to Rush her.

MIKE- She loved Mike, they paired her with a girl who had her same major and identical summer job. They had a lot in common and the conversation flowed.

MERCEDES-She was already in love with Mercedes prior to Rush. She had seen the inside of their house during Scholar's weekend and they mentioned how they got together every week
to watch Glee. They had her at Hello!


QUINN- She loved Quinn. She said she felt a sensation that she really belonged here.


SANTANA- This was her first house of the day and it was very awkward. The girl kept talking about all their social activities. She kept asking Dora if she had questions. Dora asked about their campus GPA and the girl said they had one of the highest GPA's( Dora later found out this was not true, they infact had one of the lowest)


RACHEL- Dora really like Rachel. She was double rushed here, but she was able to meet several girls who she had things in common with.


PUCK- She said Puck was just average. She did not have an opinion one way or the other.


FINN-She was also lukewarm about them. She would welcome an invite to get to know them better.


TINA- She did not feel a connection to Tina.


They could go back to 8 on the second day, so she ranked Brittany and Tina at the bottom.

To be fair, at my campus, the sorority GPAs were all really close to each other and you could easily have the highest one semester and the lowest the next. So Dora's rusher could have been off by a semester or something, and not necessarily lying on purpose. Not saying this is the truth, but a definite possibility. Not that it matters since this isn't live, but I thought I'd point it out.

Brittany had awkward conversations? How fitting

DAY 2

Dora had 6 invites: Rachel,Tina, Kurt, Mike, Brittany and Santana.

She was very happy to have 6, many of the girls in her TTX group had only 4 or 5. She did not know anyone with 8. I was sad to see Mercedes and Quinn not on her list because she had liked them so much. She said that she was going to concentrate on the chapters that wanted her and not lose sleep on the ones that didn't. I told her to look and Tina, Brittany and Santana with a fresh set of eyes.

TINA- She started her day here and she really enjoyed herself. They spent the whole time talking about football. (That's the SEC for you) Tina moved from the bottom to one of her new favorites.

RACHEL- She really liked them again today. She hopes to go back for round 3.

KURT- She spoke with the President again and was introduced to several people on the rush committee. They asked her if she really liked Kurt. She said she did.(no other house asked her this)

MIKE- Mike is still a favorite. She said conversations at all the houses were better today.

BRITTANY- Conversations were again awkward and they were trying too hard. She was really trying to find common ground with these girls, but it was not there.

SANTANA- She really enjoyed their skit. The girls were all very talented. She said at all the houses the President introduced the skits, but at Santana the President was in the skit.

Her opinions from favorite to least favorite:
Kurt
Mike
Rachel
Tina
Santana
Brittany
