Some moms maybe yes. Others no. In my case my daughter chose her school from 4 she was accepted to. I was not devastated that she was cut by my sorority, my comment was that I felt bad actually that her strong legacy hurt her chances with the other 16 sororities.
My daughter approached rush with a very open mind. She new going in that being from out of state she would not know anyone in the sororities.
She knew it would be tough. While my sorority experience was wonderful it has been a very long time since college. Things change. All this mom wanted was for her daughter to be happy !! Rush was hard. Getting cut from all but 1 after the second round does hurt your self esteem . As a parent, many of you will find, seeing your child hurt is the most difficult thing you can go through.
Like I said my daughter has joined many wonderful organizations and is loving UGA. She did hope that she could enhance her experience by being in a sorority. If this is what she wants I will support her in every way. We come from a large family of greeks and she has many legacies not just mine.
My daughter chose Ga. first and foremost for the education that she knew she would receive and she grew up knowing UGA as a school not defined by the sorority her mom was in, but for the great school it is. I think from what I see Ga. has 17 wonderful sororities. If she wants to go through again I hope it will work out for her. That's all this mom wants for her child.
