Preparing for recruitment since birth

[srmom]

I have to pass along a totally TRUE and hilarious thing that happened to me this fall (and it relates to this topic)

I was at a UT game in Austin, and I was washing my hands in the ladies room, when this darling little girl, 4 or 5-ish, came walking up to the sinks dressed in a little UT cheerleader outfit, so I lean down and say, "Are you going to be a UT cheerleader when you grow up?", and she looks up at me with the sweetest expression and says, "No, I'm going to be a Theta."

NO LIE! This obviously is a case where this little girl has been hearing all her young life from her Theta Mommy that this is what's going to happen when she grows up!! She will be well versed in proper rush etiquette by the time she's through elementary school!!

It was priceless, I couldn't wait to go tell the folks I was with!!

It must be a southern thaang , and maybe if I had had daughters, I would have been prepping them to be pi phis too!! (not only southern as I am reading the other posts - just a psychosis that is international) LOL

But, I hate such brainwashing.
