It's like giving birth to a future serial killer...

mom, your daughter made a decision that suited her and i believe you said that she is happy. i hope that you will be happy with her. send her a box of her sorority goodies and become an active supporter of your daughter and her chapter. maybe she will be the turning point for her chapter making a come back.

when i was an undergrad at florida state, an absolutely stunning girl came thru recruitment. she had it all-looks, personality, grades, activities and was so sweet-every chapter wanted her on their bid list. she had recs. to all the chapters and we all did our best to convince her that our chapter was the one she should join.

every round, she had more invitations than she could accept. she was definately in the drivers seat.

she was a double legacy to a chapter that was struggling. for pref. she attended parties at the two most competitive chapters on campus and at her legacy chapter. she chose to list her legacy chapter first. everyone on campus was stunned! it is my belief that this began her chapters long road back to an admirable place on campus. it took a while, but nowadays this chapter pledges quota and is above campus total. it has been a long time since her chapter has been the butt of cruel jokes.

this young woman served her chapter in many leadership positions, got involved on campus(before that, few members joined any other orgs.)& won recognition for her academics.she set the example for her sisters and they followed suit. to my knowledge, she never regretted her decision. to those of us on the outside, she always appeared happy and proud of her chapter. maybe your daughter will do the same for her chapter.
