Oh, Carnation, PLEASE adopt me!! Please, please, please!! 
Actually, Carnation and I became very good friends through Greekchat! We have several things in common, one in that we both have adopted daughters-Asian, at that! And, we both have college age who-have-been-through rush daughters, and I wouldn't have made it last year throughout recruitment w/out Carnation's help! (Well, I would have made it, but I certainly wouldn't have been sane by the end of the process!) And, we both have daughters who WILL be going through rush in the not too distant future! There was also the time I couldn't get my Chinese daughter's jet black, straight hair to curl for cheerleading and Carnation told me not to hold my breath on that one. Sometimes we just need someone to tell us everything is going to be OK. Like a mama....

Ok so then why didn't Carnation start the thread herself?

Maybe because there would be those who would tank her daughter's R?

Please tell me you're joking. Someone would actually try to do that?

Yes.  Several of us on these boards have had it happen to our daughters. Because some people reading these threads care more about their own sorority than about the PNM.  And that's all I'm going to say about THAT.

That would be an excellent reason to post after the fact, when it is all said and done. Can't sabotage the past.

I'm sorry. Am I supposed to care more about some random girl on a messageboard more than Alpha Sigma Alpha? I missed that part of my ASA Handbook.

Yes, that statement seems a little out of place, doesn't it? Let me see if I can better clarify, without going into detail. For the MOST part, the people who read these threads, simply READ them. They don't try to get involved/interfere with the recruitment/campus itself.

Yes there are people online who are truly that pathetic that they would try and tank the recruitment for someone's child they have never met simply because they dislike that person.
Sad but true.
Carnation,
Congratulations to your latest addition to the very Panhellenic household you are running. Between cousins, daughters, nieces, you might even be able to start your own local panhellenic.

I can't imagine anyone sabotaging Carnation; she doesn't give people reasons to dislike her!

I can see it listed on the NPC website under Alumnae Panhellenics: "Carnation Nation"

Hello and Congrats to the CARNATION NATION!
Ok, I have come out from the hills (or so it seems) to check the Recruitment threads. LOL, so glad to start another recruitment thread reading time to see Carnation has another daughter happily pledged! CONGRATS!! I hope she enjoys her new journey.
(Hi there to all the GCers, by the way, long time no chat!)

Maybe to be a little less obvious?
