JAM,
My REAL sister.
We were not at the same school and I was an alum, but I had only been an alum for 2 years.
My sister decided very late that she was going to rush (junior transfer from a community college), so I e-mailed my rec to the Chapter Advisor and the President (CA told me to send it to her also). I then called the chapter house to make sure they got it, they said they would read it. I never received a "read response" from my e-mail (tells you when e-mail was read) so I called the house again, and was again told they would read it.
My sister was dropped 1st round, so I called IHQ and was put in touch with the network specialist. The response....
"We got her confused with someone else (there was actually a girl with her first name and my married last name - but the rec was correct), but now that we know who she is everyone loved her but, she's a junior - we cut all juniors and above b/c we don't want to be "top heavy" and graduate out (hard to do with over 150 I would think), If we bid all legacies that would be the whole pledge class..., we could invite her back, but we wouldn't want to get her hopes up only to be cut again."
