Auburn University Rush--Fall 2007

[AuburnMom]

I wanted to take a moment to comment on the Auburn Rush thread taking a bit of a turn….

First of all, you are all right; I wanted it to be an all Auburn Rush thread and I did invite others to participate and I was happy when others started doing so. I am still happy that others are participating and I am looking forward to hearing Elaine’s sister’s ending along with WarEagle07 daughter’s ending. Also, I am looking forward to sharing the end of Kate’s story with you all!

Secondly, even though Elaine’s sister and Momto2Gals daughter’s rush didn’t turn out as well as they had hoped, I in no way felt that their stories diminished Kate’s. Actually, I think the fact that we’ve heard 4 Auburn rush stories on this thread and they’ve all turned out slightly different adds to the complexity of the thread and probably helps to balance the story and show what really happens at Auburn rush. I do however; feel bad for Momto2Gal’s daughter as I know she is hurting right now. Even though I don’t know her, my heart goes out to her! I don’t think she meant the things she typed to be as harsh as they sounded; I think she was in pain and was venting. And for those of you that commented about it would be hard for me to post Kate’s happy story in the middle of their sad stories, I will agree it was harder as I didn’t want to hurt their feelings; but I brought that on myself as I asked others to join and post their Auburn rush stories.

But that all said, I am committed to finish this rush story. Elaine I would be very happy if you would continue on with your sister’s story. WarEagle07, please update with your daughter’s story and if there is anybody else out there, it is not too late! Please feel free to jump in.
