Tootiepie, good luck to your daughter! (and to all the women going through recruitment at LSU). Your comments about her only being able to join one group are right on the money. All it takes is one and I wish more moms and daughters understood that. Hope she has a terrific time and continues to enjoy all the groups. Good luck to you as well. Stay sane!

My daughter is also going through recruitment at LSU. The ice water round is now in the books and this afternoon the 2 day Philanthropy round begins.

She was invited back by 6 of the 10 sororities, so she's feeling pretty upbeat. Of course, she's wondering what she didn't say or do to not get an invitation from the other four. I guess that's human nature.

Luckily, she didn't go in with her heart set on any particular sorority. Going into this round, she now has a few that have become front runners, but that could quickly change as she learns more about each group.

What a fun, but stressful week for all concerned.

Good luck to everyone!!!

Hang in there, lsumomx2.

The sororities at LSU are all great chapters! Sounds like your daughter has an excellent attitude. I wish her continued success in future rounds!

Hope the weather improved today for the girls.

My daughter was so excited this morning with her invitations. She was invited back to 8 and she just couldn't believe it. One of the groups that released her was a top group that always has to make heavy cuts. The other group was one that she just did not have a good conection with so she was not sad at all to see them gone. Of course I had to be the realist and tell her to expect heavier cuts this round. I didn't expect it to be bad this round because she had 2-3 recs for each group, fantastic grades, and a great resume. The next round will probably be a lot harder on her.

Of her group of friends they are all doing well. One had 9, another had 7, and one claims to have all 10. I think she might be embellishing the truth because she also said she didn't have that many recs!!!! Of course she could have really dazzled them.

The t-shirt that they got is so cute. It has 10 little girls on the back in thier old fashioned dresses with the letters of each sorority on one of the girls.

Also I think that each chapter shows a video of thier philantropy as opposed to the cheesey crafts as were discussed in another thread.

p.s. It is good thing I never took a job in an office, my typos are terrible so please forgive me.
