What do you think about how they are handling it, KSUViolet?
I know I've jumped in and been all judgmental, but as someone on the scene, do you think they are doing enough?
Do you think Greek Life is just be cowardly?

So if the police are willing to arrest her for tresspassing wouldn't that prevent her from attending the chapter during recruitment?

I believe it would only apply to invite parties.
As I understand it, if you sign up for recruitment, then you are at least "invited" to the "open" (first) parties. At the point in the rounds or parties where she is *not* invited (i.e. not on the list), then she would be tresspassing if she showed up etc. And of course if she shows up during any other time when she isn't invited. (i.e. between rounds, after being cut etc.)
Otherwise, it seems like they would have to have a restraining order to keep her from attending the open (first) party.

Actually no. The first 2 rounds of recruitment aren't held in the chapter houses. Since she'd be cut after round 2 (when PNMs receive invites), it wouldn't even be an issue.

I think everyone involved is doing what they can. Greek Life can't do anything except let her sign up and see what happens.
They have mentioned letting her assigned Rho Chi know ahead of time (before she meets her other PNMs) that Crying Girl will be in her group so she can call her a few extra times before rush starts so they can talk about her having rushed last year. This way the PX knows what she's dealing with and can assist her better when she is cut (by referring her to Health Services for counseling etc).
There are some alumnae who are specualting that she won't even stay at school this year if she doesn't get a bid. We'll just have to see how this turns out.

In case any of you are wondering about Crying Girl, she ended up withdrawing from recruitment after day one, but according to a PX who spoke to her, she plans to transfer to a smaller school in Ohio and try rush again because she feels like she'd have a better chance of getting a bid at somewhere smaller.
Honestly, the school itself is big, but Greek Life isn't. Our recruitment is not competitve at all. I don't think moving anywhere would change much. If she moves and still doesn't get a bid, I think it will just start the cycle all over again.

PM me with her name......for some reason I think I know who it is, but I can't place her. I'm sure it'll make sense.
I agree with you....Kent has a very small greek system in comparison to it's size (Akron is also the same way) so I don't think her chances are going to get any better.
