Everyone knows someone through someone. Kind of like 6 degrees of separation for the Chosen People. "Oh hi Brooke Levenson, I'm Samantha Katz, we met at Claire Hoffman's Bat Mitzvah. Oh I remember Claire, she went to Hebrew school at Park Avenue Synagogue with my cousin Laura. I went there! I know Laura. She dated my neighbor Isaac, etc."

How small is the very small school? Has she attempted to get involved in anything else of an extracurricular nature?

Tee hee.

My mom is only 2 Degrees removed from anyone. But us Italians are almost as close knit We even get the mom/grandmother guilt!

Basically "this girl" (which sounds an awful lot like "my friend has a problem") will get caught. There are other things out there besides a sorority, and if you.. er.. she really bonds with a group of girls in a sorority I would expect you could help out at their philanthropy events and come to some sisterhood things with your friends. But that's AFTER she a) makes friends with the girls and b) has other activities.

That is hysterical... and the more funny b/c I can imagine several members of my family saying it.

If a young woman received a bid and was pledged into a sorority but never intiated into full membership, that she would certainly be able to rush at another college or university with no strings attached to the prior sorority. However, is she was initiated as a member then she would not be able to rush.

Just out of curiosity, have you read the other posts in this thread?

Welcome to the forum.

I've noticed that a lot of new GCers often don't read the rest of the discussion past the first few posts. Oftentimes, the question is already answered and more related info is posted. It's nice to get a feel of the forums before posting, IMO -- and I give that suggestion to a lot of new GCers.

Again, welcome and happy posting.

I love it! I always heard basically the same thing as "Everybody knows Somebody who knows Somebody who knows the President." Now I have another way to say it!

But as to the original question, I do know of two cases where it has happened, but both times, it was someone who would now be at least 65-70 years old. And, sooner or later, someone's going to notice that you have two different sorority magazines at your house...

Was this maybe one group (like Chi Omega) that had always been NPC and another (like Alpha Sigma Tau) who didn't join NPC till later?

I know when I've googled my sorority's name I've occasionally come up w/ obituaries that say (for example) "she was a member of Phi Mu and Alpha Sigma Alpha" - it is just so weird to see!

I really like the idea of transfers having the options to be Rho Gammas - as a transfer student, it's something I would have enjoyed doing, but it was not an option for me.
