Somehow I've managed to avoid the rudest of the rude... but I did have one

I am a bio major, and the girl I was bumping was an engineering major- obviously, we're both pretty busy. So I go to bump her, and she tells me, "This is Patty PNM, we were just talking about our majors." This PNM was a math major (I think? something like that) and kept on insisting that her major was too time consuming for sorority life and she was a unique snowflake because only she spent lots of time on her schoolwork and there was no WAY we could understand the position she was in. First of all, why would you start rush if you were really that set against making time for a sorority? And second of all, why on earth would you be the only one with time-consuming classes? It's college, everyone's busy regardless of their major, and the president told you our chapter GPA during the presentation, clearly we are not a group of slackers. Learn some time management!

ETA: PizzaLove, stories like yours make we wish that there was a way to report PNMs that rude to panhellenic so that other groups would be aware of their "other side" and cut them. There are a lot of logistical issues with this, but...if it could work it would be nice.

It's totally possible and happens frequently at the campus where I advise. When PNMs are inexcusably rude, the chapter reports it to the Greek advisor, who posts a note on the front page of ICS (the recruitment software). The chapters can then do with the information what they want.

We had a legacy who came through - her grandmother was a sister, and this was the last granddaughter, and the only one who had come to a school with a her sorority.

Grandma had sent us a long letter and a collage of pictures of her granddaughter. So we knew everything about this chick.

When our sister greeted her and mentioned we'd heard a lot about her from her grandmother, her reply was:

"My grandmother is crazy, and I am not joining this sorority." Our sister burst into tears.

Our advisors would NOT let us cut her, but it would have been sweet to let the other sororities know about her.

It would have been sweeter to call Grandma and have little snowflake cut out of the will.

^^^I'd like to know as well.

And, I hope she didn't join SK. Wouldn't have been fair to the chapter.

She definitely did not become our sister, and thankfully, she didn't even come back for second round. Apparently, we didn't make it up high enough on her list. Tooooo baaaaad.

Once we were rid of her, we washed our hands of her, and I hope she ended up somewhere she was happy.

And thankfully, that wasn't with us.
