Yes, she is already going to meetings this week for various organizations, and actually this seems to have bolstered her again.....She has a new resolve and I am glad for that.....

I applaud her for her strength of character and you for instilling it in her.

As much as I hate to say it, welcome to Southern Schools recruitment. It seems from all of the reports, very brutal. You are pretty much chosen before hand.
I am sure she is dissapointed, but, that is the way it is!

So how did the meetings go? Did she end up somewhere else through COB??

Things are *somewhat* looking up...She is not in a sorority and is hoping for a bid in January. Her favorites have completely changed from what she thought before rush -The sorority she thought she wanted would not have been a fit for her..she has been selected to one of the groups on campus that assists an athletic program....She is the only one not in a sorority that is a member and she LOVES the girls she is with - and wishes for a bid to that sorority but also likes 2 others - the hard part for that is meeting the girls....I am hoping something will open up with that one....The girls are really sweet -- I just keep encouraging her - grades are good - really good and other activities she has is keeping her busy....she has been to every football game with pledges from fraternities and has met many girls also.....It is still hard for her at times, but she has a good outlook on the situation....Thanks for asking.....

I will - I have my fingers and toes crossed for the one she wants and that she will meet other girls to the other 2 - one of them is heavy in my family - with one former national member - just hope that they all keep the recs they got on her....not sure how that works with COB....

Someone from Auburn weigh in - would it help for alumnae to write a "re-introduction" note - perhaps letting the chapter that PNM is interested in spring recruitment?

yes, please. writing a letter to let the chapter know that the pnm is interested in the chapter sounds like a great idea. please auburn folks, let us know.

The girls who are interested do fill out a form and it is in the greek office....I think, though that they really go by the girls from their pref list who didn't match anywhere.....I don't want to hurt her chances, but one friend who did a rec did email the rush chair, because they sent her a note thanking her for her rec, but had all the wrong names on it so she wanted to make sure they even knew who my D was.....and to let her know she is still interested....

i did email 2 advisors to a chapter that i sent a rec. to when i found out that the pnm i wrote the rec. for had to drop out of recruitment due to illness and found out the chapter had a few slots open . they invited the girl to a few events and she ended up accepting a bid!

i don't think that's a good idea before the fact.

no, definitely not a typo. guess you'd have to be from the south to know what miss glomerata was at auburn! it's like a beauty pageant. all the sororities nominate girls to represent their chapter at the event. it's sponsored by the year book.
