A sorority member made fun of your daughter's body and laughed at her? In rush? And they gave her a bid? I'm missing something here.

I'm wondering if you, as the mom, are getting the entire actual story from your daughter. It seems highly unlikely to me as well that a house would say mean/derogatory things and then turn around and issue a bid. Just as it is unlikely that so many girls at her desired house would assure a PNM that she would get a bid. I have two daughters and their words are often colored with their emotions and often they see/report things the way they WANT to, vs. actual reality. They will say "so-and-so said I was such-and-such" and I'll ask if they *literally* said that and they'll back down and admit what the *actual* words were, which were not the same. What they hear and what was actually said are very often not the same thing when I do some digging, and they see/hear things differently than I do, as an objective adult.

I am so very sorry that your daughter's rush experience was not a good one and did not have her desired outcome. My daughter's was experience was, and continues to be, SO very different than my own and has pretty much been one disappointment after another. So I get it--I know that you're sad for her and wish things were different.
