Suggest you move and ask your question to rush thread.

So, good luck!

Pantsy, I don't know if strangers would be willing to "put in a good word" for someone they don't know. Also, I suggest that you not limit your choices to a few before recruitment even starts. We've all seen PNMs who announce which sororities they would accept before rush--and then get cut by all those after first or second parties.

Your best bet is to get sorority alums in your area to write recs for you.

ok, i don't know how to move it.

my grandma already got me into her sorority, but its not one that i like. so i'm looking for girls in the sororities i listed who can make a couple of calls and get me in the ones that are better.

Haha -- no kidding. Sometimes I wonder if half the posts on GC are real.

My money's on Bobby, but he hasn't been on GC lately.

I understand completely. If you would be kind enough to send me your name and school, I will alert my National Vice President of Membership that you are going through rush.

Also, maybe you could contact Condoleezza Rice, Laura Bush and Jennifer Garner for AXO, Theta and PiPhi, respectively. I bet they'd love to put in a good word for you.

Don't worry, if it doesn't work out I'm sure you're a perfect candidate for AI!

You should get together with ShamikaT. She appears to be in the same boat as you being unhappy that is. Just do a search on her username and you can read her story.

I forgot to add that maybe you could contact Sela Ward about Chi Omega.

I am certain they would.After all,she already got into her grandma's sorority without even going through rush. Girls that fabulous should always be looking for a higher standard.

Unless, of course, it's SKEPi. But, who wouldn't want to join that sorority?

You need recomendations thats fine....you want to ask people you don't know okay thats your perogative....but you should do it in a respectful matter. Put your best foot forward.....

Also its okay to know what you want go to the directories of those sororities and post a thread saying that you are interested in joining their sisterhood. Show some respect before you become a member of one greek organization show some respect for the system.

Just wanted to say thank you for the best laugh I've had all day!!

Seriously, some of these posts just get better and better.

Oh, I thought she was serious?

Hmmm, maybe she was but did a bad job of trying to prove it.

pantsy5, if you are really interested in Rushing, you do not come on like you are the one selecting.

If and only if, You will be selected as someone who is beneficial and will work for any Organization.

Not to be mean, but maybe you wont be the type of person a certain GLO wants. Not the other way around.
