Three Really Fabulous UGA Stories All At Once

[gaangel5]

My rec girl from a few years ago was in charge of recruitment at Zeta this year. Tell "Patty" that she's joining a great group of girls. Congrats on all 3 finding their homes.

I love this recruitment story, especially because I have daughter who will be going through UGA recruitment in 2 weeks! It was great to read the opinions of 3 different girls.

Excellent thread! It serves as a great reminder for PNM's about going in with an open mind and taking advantage of all invitations and opportunities to connect with each chapter. I can't wait for FFR to begin!

Heylia
Vaneeta
Esteban
Dean
Andy
Sally's Thoughts on Sally's Invites:
Sally was very disappointed to be cut by Silas. She was also prepared for heavy cuts as an upperclassman, but she was sad to only have 9 parties until she realized that many freshmen didn't have that many! She plans to put her best foot forward with all of the groups, though she just can't imagine pledging Andy.

Patty's Invites:
Nancy
Dean
Celia
Doug
Sanjay
Lupita
Conrad
Vaneeta
Cesar
Heylia
Baby Stephen
Isabelle
Patty's Thoughts on Patty's Invites:
Patty was very happy to have 12 invites and knew that she was lucky to have a full schedule with almost all of her top houses. She was disappointed to be cut by Silas, but she had LOVED the top four houses she still had left and was excited about the next round. In particular, she thinks she will end up deciding between the top 7 on this list.

Lucy's Invites:
Shane
Andy
Vaneeta
Esteban
Heylia
Lupita
Dean
Lucy's Thoughts about Lucy's Invites:
Lucy was very disappointed that she was cut by Nancy, Celia, and Isabelle. She was happy to be invited back by 7 chapters, though! She is going to put her best foot forward with all of the chapters (even Dean).

If you're keeping track, the only overlapping groups for all three are Vaneeta, Heylia, Lupita, and Dean.

This is where this gets kind of tricky, since not all 3 girls visited every house for each round moving forward.

SANJAY
Sally LOVED this house. It is definitely her new favorite. The girls are so sweet and welcoming.
Patty really liked this house. She again thought that the girls were super friendly.

CESAR
Sally LOVED this house. It is definitely her other new favorite. She enjoyed how down to earth the girls were.
Patty just did not feel a connection with this house. She said the girls were nice, but she didn't get to have any conversations aside from the usual chit chat.

LUPITA
Sally really liked this house. She was just blown away by how beautiful the physical building was, but she also liked the girl who took her around.
Patty really liked this house. She got to know the girls a bit better and places it about equal to Sanjay.
Lucy liked this house. She said the girls were very nice.

CONRAD
Sally really liked this house. The girls were sweet and the house was pretty!
Patty really liked this house. She would put it in the same category as Sanjay and Lupita.

HEYLIA
Sally really liked this house. She thought the girls were very sweet.
Patty liked this house, but not as much as many of the others.
Lucy liked this house. She thought the girls were really sweet.

VANEETA
Sally really liked this house. She loved the physical house and the girls in it!
Patty was lukewarm about this house. The girls were nice, but she still didn't feel a connection.
Lucy really liked this house. She felt very relaxed with those who she met this round.

ESTEBAN
Sally liked this house. The girls were very relaxed and nice.
Lucy liked this house. The girls were very sweet.

DEAN
Sally liked this house. The girls were very welcoming.
Patty LOVED this house. The conversations were very easy yet again.
Lucy had nice conversations with the girls, but still didn't feel a connection here.

ANDY
Sally still did not feel a connection here.
Lucy really liked this house, but didn't like the physical building as much as the girls in it.

NANCY
Patty, once again, LOVED Nancy. This is definitely one of her top houses.

CELIA
Patty just LOVED the easy-going, fun nature of the girls in this house.

DOUG
Patty LOVED these sweet, fun girls. She enjoyed joking around with them and seeing the house.

BABY STEPHEN
Patty did not really make a connection with anyone here, but thought they were nice.

ISABELLE
Patty thought their house was very pretty, but just didn't feel comfortable here.

SHANE
Lucy thought these girls were really sweet. She really likes this house and could see it being a contender.

The only houses that did not invite back any of the three girls were Silas and Pilar.

For the next round, the girls needed to list their top 6 and then rank the remaining houses.

Sally's Favorite 6:
Sanjay, Cesar, Lupita, Conrad, Heylia, Vaneeta

Patty's Favorite 6:
Nancy, Celia, Doug, Dean, Sanjay, Conrad (Though she had a hard time deciding whether to put Lupita in the top 6 instead of Sanjay or Conrad.)

Lucy's Favorite 6:
Shane, Andy, Vaneeta, Esteban, Heylia, Lupita
