I recall, about 10 years ago, a PNM that submitted a picture of her pool side in a white bikini. Mind you that this was the picture she submitted directly to Panhell for all the chapters. I don't get why anyone would use that kind of photo.

They're thinking they look like this:





But they're coming off as this (you're welcome, k_s):





Not that either is appropriate.

I had a request for a REC from a PNM this year for Auburn. I did not know her from Adam, so I said forward me your resume and I will let you know. Never heard back. I guess she thought I could pull the information out of thin air.

I had a girl who sent a mass email to a bunch of people (like, way more than the number of chapters on her campus) asking for recs. Her spelling and grammar were so atrocious that I had difficulty figuring out what was going on in her resume.

Oh, and I had never met her before, nor did I know anyone else on her distribution list. Sigh.

Exclamation Leather Jacket Girl

This is a pnm I shall never forget. At USC (Los Angeles) recruitment is very competitive. Attire for the day was summer dress as the temperature hovered in the 90s. As the women came in the chapter house one woman did "stand out". She wore black leather boots, black leather skirt with looped chains for a belt. To complete her outfit she wore a long sleeved black leather jacket! For earrings she had safety pins. I wondered where she had left her motorcyle.

After entering she made no effort to talk with anyone and acted as if she could hardly wait to leave. At the end of the party it was a pleasure to escort her out the door.

I have no idea why she even registered for recruitment. Perhaps there was a bet involved. It was no surprise to learn later she did not receive any invitations for the second day of parties.

1. Don't pick a college because you are following a boyfriend there
2. If said boyfriend dumps you over the summer, don't go to your *public* t_witter account and create all sorts of crazy drama and make hourly posts about how miserable you are without him.
3. Do not state on your *again, PUBLIC* Facebook that you plan to only be at your university for one semester before transferring.

Screen shots are forever.

All this and an SEC recruitment. SMH.
