Suicide?

[beebadger]

My daughter is going to prefs tonight and at her school that's only 2 parties. One she really likes and one she definitely would not want to join (she went to 3 yesterday). So... she's certainly hoping her fav. is one of the 2 tonight and she's willing to go to the other, but doesn't see herself as being a sister there. So... she thinks she has to rank both. I told her to check with her Rho Gamma because if she ranked both she might be invited to join her 2nd choice. I know suicide is a risk, but it seems to make sense if you definitely don't want the other house. My question is this: they are also colonizing another house on campus in a few weeks. If she suicides her first choice and doesn't get it will she be eligible to rush at the new sorority?

ALso -- it's the ACT test where you're supposed to guess!!

If you only rank 1 choice and don't get it .. you are a free agent and can COB when formal recruitment is complete or participate in the recruitment for a colony.

if you rank multiple choices, get a bid and decline it than you CANNOT accept a bid
to an NPC sorority for 1 year. This would include a colonization recruitment.

you are correct, if you won't accept the bid DO NOT rank it on your preference/bid card!!
the Rho Gamma may try to persuide her to list both but she shouldn't if she knows for
a fact she won't accept the bid.

Yes she is. If you suicide and don't get a bid, you are eligible to go through a colony's recruitment.

Now if she lists BOTH, gets a bid from her 2nd choice, and declines it, she is NOT ELIGIBLE to participate in the colony recruitment or any informal recruitment for one year.
