Good luck to TexasDaughter, you must be very proud of her! I hope tomorrow brings more good news - and that you sleep well tonight.

It only takes one! I am so proud of your daughter...

Fingers crossed for two pref invites!

It brought tears to my eyes as you wrote about how proud you are of your daughter. Like BamaDad's and Southyankee's posts, it's so clear how your attitude and perspective are being passed down and carried on by your daughter. That's probably why they wind up in a happy ending place. These threads should be required reading for every PNM. Maybe one of the mods can post a "required reading" thread that directs PNM's to all the great how-to-do-it-right recruitment stories.

Good luck and I am so hoping she gets her pref invites!

I just reviewed her earlier comments on Chris and Paula. It sounds like she will be very happy with either of these groups. I cannot wait to hear what happens.

I have been lurking this thread all week because my daughter is going through rush at the same school as Texasdaughter. I appreciate so much the insight and help this thread has provided.

Tonight is Pref night. My daughter got cut today from one of her top 2 sororities. She really likes the remaining sorority, but is fearful that she will not receive a bid from it tomorrow.

To complicate matters, my daughter is a sophmore and got cut today from a sorority where she has many close friends.

I would appreciate any advice you might have to:
1. advise me on how to help my daughter to not feel badly aand to take it personally that she did not receive an invitation to go back on Pref night to a sorority that the majority of her close friends are in
2. and advise me on how to help her if indeed she does not receive a bid from her remaining sorority. She really, really loves the remaining sorority and is very fearful that she will be cut from that too. She is feeling pretty low and scared tonight over tomorrow.

Thanks so much for starting this thread.
