I am not an Arkansas PNM. When I registered that is the name sent to my email and can’t figure out how to change it. I am an aunt of an AR PNM this year and we are very close. My sister tells me that many girls there are having a rough recruitment. Lots have been dropped completely. I don’t mean they weren’t happy with their choices and dropped out. I mean completely dropped. Lots of mamas on the AR parents page talking about this. I find this strange. Wonder if some of the houses decided to release more than what the school’s Greek life told them and are just paying the fine.

Yes. Being dropped from every house. Even the newest ones her suitemate was dropped completely after philanthropy round. Great gpa and not a rep risk. Just no AR connections.

It seems like the groups that have a lot of OOS girls would love to have her! Has your daughter gotten her pref party invites?

She just finished sisterhood round today. Not sure but think she gets pref invites early tomorrow. She has had some disappointments of course, but right now she is just thankful that she kept 4 for sisterhood. She is just hoping for at least 1 pref invite. Says she would be happy at any of the 4 but does have a clear favorite.

I don’t guess it hurts to say which ones she has left. You might be curious since you are an Arkansas grad. She has AXO, DDD, KD and APhi left. She is really loving the girls she has met in AXO and just the vibe of the house in general. I am afraid that she has her heart set on them.

I hope she'll keep them all! Where is the AXO house now? It used to be near Pi Phi down Maple.

I'm just glad that they don't have bed rush anymore.

After hearing a lot of the older IU horror stories I’m so happy this is all in place.
