Last year we had a set of twins go through Formal Recruitment. One of them ended up joining my chapter and the other went AOII.

A set of twins came through recruitment this year. These girls weren't your typical really close twins. I mean, they didn't hate hate each other, but they were very much into doing their own things and having different interests. Apparently, their mother used to be really big on them doing identical things when they were little, so as they grew up, they really tried to be individuals. They went to different high schools and had completely different sets of friends.

They were put in the same group (since they are divided alphabetically), so they went to the same parties for the first 2 days when the PNMs visit all chapters. My sister was their Rho Chi and said that they got REALLY annoyed whenever a chapter would mention something about one of them having a twin. They got really sick of:

"Oh hey, your last name is ____, is Suzie _______ your sister?"
"OMG that must be really neat to have a twin."
"I bet you guys are like best friends."
"Oh wow you guys look just alike!"
"So do you guys like to dress alike?"

They were so annoyed that they started saying things to rushers like "Yes, I have a twin, but I really don't feel like talking about her right now." I can somewhat understand this because recruitment is about YOU as an individual, and I'd be pissed if all my rusher could ask me about was my twin sister.

In the end they ended up in 2 different places and they're both very happy.

Twins at UBC!

In Rush 1990 at UBC, 2 girls went through Rush..they were fraternal twins.

One joined AGD and the other Gamma Phi Beta!

Two of my LS's from Alpha chapter are identical twins. They are easy to tell apart because one is a little taller than the other. We have another set of twins as well that pledged at the same time at the same chapter.

I've known several sets on several campuses and the weird thing is that all the identical sets I know pledged the same group and the fraternals pledged 2 different groups.

We had one twin pledge us, even though they were both going to school there...I knew her sister before I knew her, actually. They were fraternal and not close at all (as a matter of fact, they pretty much hated each other's friends, me being an exception).

There was also a set of fraternal twins who pledged AST. I think the prettier of the 2 ended up as homecoming queen.

My chapter had a set of twins when I joined (they're alums now), and this fall we initiated another set. They're not identical, though, so at least I can tell them apart!

When I went through rush, there were twins (fraternal) in my rush group. They roomed together in the dorms, but one went DG and the other Zeta.

A while back we had twins. I wasn't around so I don't know much about them. One was Phi Mu and the other wet Delta Ph Epsilon.

There was a set of identical twins when I went through rush. One of them was in my rush group (odd that the other wasn't since they had the same las name). I always thought that they seperated them so that they'd make up their minds as individuals. Well I guess they did, one went Chi-O and the other joined Alpha Phi.

At Texas Tech, we've had quite a few sets of twins join Alpha Phi together. Our most recent set just graduated, I believe. :-)

This past fall, 2 sets of twins went through rush. All four seemed like super nice girls, and we rushed them very hard, and all four came back to prefs. Well, through some error in the computer system, we got one set of twins, and then only one of the other twins. We'll call her Suzy. So Suzy's sister, Shirley ends up pledging the sorority that she got a bid from. Funny thing is that Suzy starts hanging out with her sister's sorority more than ours. And her sister is not very nice to us at all. Shirley walks around campus is her XYZ letters, and doesn't even acknowledge my sisters or I when we say hi, even if we are wearing letters, knowing full well that we are her sister's sorority sisters. Sadly, Suzy ends up dropping, and now she just sort of hangs with her sister's sorority. The other twins are awesome, yet I'm embarrassed to say that I can't always tell them apart!
