Correct me if I am reading this worng, but you actually said that to your daughter? It seems as if you are more interested in her being in a sorority than she is.

You are starting to wonder if she belongs at Auburn? Because she didn't get a bid? You've got to be kidding me? The last time I checked, I thought that we went to college to get an education. To question whether you belong at a college based on if you get a bid or not, shows a SERIOUS set of whacked out priorities or an obvious lack in faith in your daughter that she can find a niche on her own in a non greek organization.

I feel sorry for your daughter, but not just for getting cut from rush, but having to listen to comments like this from her own mom...

I think these comments are unfair. She is a mother, she cares enough about her daughter to want the best for her and make sure it's the right school for her. Many people question their college choice before they get a 100% settled in. I don't think she is saying oh, my daughter doesn't belong here bc she didn't get a bid rather questioning the system at Auburn and the people that go there. And from what I've read, I would too.
