A State-ly Sorority Recruitment

[MaryPoppins]

EB I had a recruitment mistake too even though the vast majority of folks will tell you that those don't happen. I cannot wait to hear how it turned out.

It's not that mistakes don't happen. It's that "computer glitches" don't happen. If you are not on an invite list, for example, it's not because the chapter put you on their invite list and the computer decided to randomly drop you. It's because the chapter didn't put you on their invite list. That certainly could be the chapter's mistake, either they confused you with someone else, there was a data entry error, whatever.

There was also an error during my rush, where women were over-invited (my story is around here somewhere).

But when an active member tells a PNM "oh, we invited you, there must have been a computer glitch", she is lying virtually every time.

Yes! This was though was a data entry error, probably by the GL Director or someone to who she was awfully close or maybe too intimidated by. Life it to short not to do the RIGHT thing.

Also, the "no notification but no parties" should have tipped off the Rho Chi to ask a few more questions. Sigh.

I have a feeling that this story is going to work out in the end, but the process engineer in me is really squirming.

This, particularly considering

this. The OP is a much more mature and level-headed person than me, I would've been hella mad about the situation!

DBB, the actives did not indicate that there was a glitch... that was the GLO director.

No, no, I know. I suspect the GLO director messed up and tried to blame it on a computer glitch.

The part about actives saying that was off-topic; it's something we hear around here a ton.
