Alum visiting colleges with daughter Qestion

^^^You know the awkward moment where you get a snarky response from someone and have to double check and see if you were being rude? I had that. lol.

And re: the point of this thread, there MAY be schools that aren't particularly as legacy-heavy where a visit might really stand out. (But even then, collegians are really good bullshit detectors. If you are visiting for that sole purpose, they can tell.)

But at Bama/Ole Miss, not so much. There are a lot more legacies and they just can't give them all that sort of "stand out" treatment, even if they really DO like the girl/mom and her intentions of visiting are genuinely a "look where I used to live" thing.

When I read it I also had to reread all the previous posts thinking I missed something.

Tritto! I had no clue where that came from-I saw nothing wrong with her posts, so I didn't get it.

You know, I was literally thinking about this today. I need to find out if there is a real word for the person after "ditto" to use.

On another website I've used, they started using "tritto," but I'm not sure if it's a legitimate word. I actually doubt that it is.

Not a word per se - but on the urbandictionary "me three" since 2006

To go way back to the beginning of this thread (skipping over the tumult and the storm): I think it is a GREAT idea to visit your chapter houses when you and your daughter go on campus visits. She is no longer regarding college as some place her parents were but as some place that she is going to be -- and, similarly, Greek life as not just what mom did but what she might do. The collegiate members will undoubtedly be tickled pink (or is that pink and green?) that both an alumna and a pnm/legacy are visiting. They darn well better receive you cordially!

As I posted on another GC forum, a month ago I returned to my college campus for the first time in many years. I visited both my dorm room and my chapter house (now occupied by a fraternity), and drove past the places I had summertime apartments. Ah, the memories!
