I can still remember some of the girls I know being brought nearly tears last year after they got cut (of course, they got over it quick, fast ,and in a hurry by the next round). Your sister must just be one of those perfect rushies. Good for her!

Hahaha...don't tell mu_agd that! That's her chapter!

Remind your sister - are her two freinds double legs? And at least one chapter she is a legacy of that chapter. I would say that chapters that had to make heavy cuts, cut her for risk.

Honestly, when I posted that I thought it was U of Miami, Fla until I looked at the IHQ site. I was preparing to raise them a notch in my perception, lol.

Ok, first round is over and her opinions majorly changed on a few of them! She ranked them in this order:

1) Purple
1) Red
1) White
1) Gold
1) Brown
1) Gray
1) Silver
2) Pink
3) Tan
4) Lavender
5) Green
6) Magenta

She said Gray, Silver, and Pink were all virtually interchangeable today - she ended up putting Pink in the drop list because all of the girls she really loved are graduating seniors. She almost hopes that she gets dropped by one so she can visit Pink again. She was also pleasantly surprised by Tan today. Invites come back Wednesday afternoon.

I heard Miami may be doing away with skits next year...boo!

Yeah, I'm sure it's even worse when you are the PNM. Good luck to your sister!

This is really interesting to see. I can't wait to find out!!

[ADqtPiMel]

For clarification: I graduated from Miami not too long ago, so yes, my sister is rushing my own chapter. We are really close, but we have very different personalities. Although I obviously want her to like my chapter (which she does), I wouldn't be disappointed if she chose to join a different one. With 17 chapters, there is a good fit for any type of girl. I want her to find the best fit for her, and not just join mine because she loves my friends.

That being said, second round is next Friday and Saturday, pref is Sunday and Bid Day is Monday. I'll be in Ohio that weekend and most likely without computer access, so don't fret if I don't post. I'll give the whole rundown as soon as I'm back!

[ADqtPiMel]

Update!

She was dropped by two this time, and she was very relieved because she decided during the beginning of this week that she actually really wanted to go back to pink, which she put at number one on her drop list.

She will be returning to the following chapters on Friday and Saturday:
Purple
Red
White
Gray
Silver
Pink
Tan

She will not be returning to:
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Kappa Delta
Pi Beta Phi
Delta Delta Delta
Alpha Omicron Pi
