A will definitely go into this with an open mind - she just feels bad that there may be other girls who really want to get in the one she doesn't feel a connection for. But...good advice from all, and I will share your thoughts with her!
I am not sure of B's list yet, but I do know she had 7 callbacks too! I have heard from C's mom. She has 5 callbacks today. She didn't have two of her favorites on the list, but has several she is still really happy about. The parties C will attend are:
Onyx
Emerald
Jade
Aquamarine
Garnet
If I find out B's list for sure I'll post that too. It sounds like all three will have a great day!

As ellebud said, you truly are a class act! Hope it all works to the best!
Have the girls discussed being in the same sorority together at all? They seem so close!

It looked to me like the only cross-over for A and C is Emerald. Funny how 3 girls who probably think they're exactly alike are all happy with how rush is going and have such different schedules. Proof once again that there is no BEST chapter.

A and C still have Emerald and Jade in common. I still don't have a clear list of who all B saw today, but I know that one of them was Diamond, which A also still had. (Confused yet?? LOL  )
These three girls, even though they are friends, have thought from the beginning that it would be better to be in three different groups....to meet 3X the number of girls. Also, it would let each of them branch out a little.
It could very well end up that 2 are in the same group, but I don't think they all have one in common anymore. It will be wonderful for that to happen too!
My heart just breaks to read of the ones that have been thru this whole week and are getting dropped now. When I talked to A last night she was so hoarse I could barely understand her. She started the conversation with "I'm done". She sounded so tired I thought she meant she was DONE with recruitment and ready to quit! That wasn't what she meant.....but she was so tired that was how it sounded.
*If* tomorrow goes well and she has three for pref day (big IF, I know), what are the odds she wouldn't get a bid? Assuming she maximized her options, would she be pretty likely to end up with one?

My daughter is also going through recruitment at Auburn, and so far she has had a good experience. She was invited to seven parties today. She has four sororities that are her favorites at this point. I have not been able to talk to her yet, but I was curious how many PNM's are at each party today?
I am hoping that since she has several sororities that she likes on her list, that she will have at least one for Pref night. I'm praying that the right door will open for all the PNM's!

Need some help! A just called....and can literally barely talk. I could hardly understand her. Anyone have any miracle cure for laryngitis?? I told her to gargle with warm salt water, not to talk unless she had to, and drink plenty of fluids. Any other ideas??

That's awful! Hoping she gets better soon! Did she text you at all on how her day went?

Good advice. Remind her that no talking also means no whispering. Whispering, strangely enough, can actually continue to irritate the vocal folds.
