Well the upside to the situation is that she won't feel pressured to pick Alpha Chi and you can be more unbiased. Things won't be awkward like they could potentially be if there were a chapter of Alpha Chi at her school. Good luck to your sister, I hope she finds a great place to call home!

Last night, my sister and the other PNMs went on house tours. I was only able to talk to her for a little bit last night, but she told me that her opinions on the chapters changed a lot from last Spring. Of course, I'm going crazy not knowing what that means.

She's visiting me this weekend and we're going shopping for a pref dress. And, I'll be grilling her for details on the house tours and her new opinions.

Okay, I finally got the scoop from my sister. And I also realized that I didn't establish any code names. I love Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and there are 5 houses at my sister's school, so:

Ted
Kyan
Thom
Carson
Jai

As I said earlier, she went on house tours on Thursday. Here's what she thought:

Ted - Very stereotypical sorority. She felt like everything was posed and unnatural. She just didn't feel comfortable in this house.

Kyan - Really liked this house. She had a lot of good conversations with the sisters during the tour and felt very at ease.

Thom - Liked this house, but their GPA requirement is really high and she's just below their cutoff.

Carson - Just like Kyan, she really liked this house. Again, conversations seemed easy and natural.

Jai - Despite really loving this house last year and participating in informal recruitment there, she didn't get the same good feeling this time around. It was "okay" but not great.

She's keeping a really open mind and is very excited for next week (as am I!)
