Could some BGLO ladies please explain how the NPHC sorority rush process happens?

NPHCers:

Is it considered bad form for friends to show up to events together? In NPC rush, we usually worry about girls who are too attached to a friend or roommate because it turns into a package deal. I am sure the same is true for your actual intake, but what about prior to that?

As long as both persons are interested in the org, it shouldn't be a problem.

For me, it would depend on the nature of the events and the quality of the aspirants.

Generally, I want to get to know aspirants independent of one another.

This might sound crazy but one of my really good friends and I acted as if we didn't know each other beofre we got accepted. The reason being, we wanted to cover all of our bases (parinoid interested girls we were) just incase there was a member out to split up friends who wanted to get in. I have never heard of friends purposely getting turned down, but we wanted to make sure that, that wasn't the case for us. We would talk before an event and after on the phone, but we would d**n near crack up trying to ignore each other.

Since CULater is digging up old threads that I forgot existed, LOL:

This will definitely be based on the specific members in a chapter, as well as chapter and campus dynamics (for instance, small campuses and small chapters). We never had problems with friends coming to programs together. That could be 2 friends or 5 friends. It is silly to try to break friends up. If they are all qualified and wanted, then they are all qualified and wanted. If only one or none is/are qualified and wanted, you know the rest.

better than getting flamed for not using the search button

Search and read does not always equal post, though.

yeah it is silly, but I know a chapter that purposely tried to split up twins.
