Daughter's friend's recruitment

[Splash]

Ok, gotcha. Question, what do you think about when girls who vaca in Europe every summer, went to private school, are pretty, like to go shopping, etc that whole list you mentioned, get cut by those chapters? Wouldn't you say that they don't have as much in common with the other chapters just like the "regular" girls might not have as much in common with the Pretty Miss Popular chapter? just wondering

I don't see the point in speculating about hypothetical circumstances/situations/people. ellebud & ksuviolet have given excellent advice, as have the other posters. This is a cautionary tale that PNMs should take to heart.

Those girls may not have as much in common with their chapter than the more "elite" chapters had they not been cut, but then again, we are talking mostly about chapters at schools with very defined differences between groups. This is pretty rare and at MOST schools not so definitive. A fish out of water can fit in, but may not feel as comfortable and will probably have to work harder at it.

Mostly I think it's the idea of getting rejected by Pretty Perfect Princess. It's one of the first doses of reality most girls get when they get to school. They want to be a Pi Pi Pi because everyone should want to be a Pi Pi Pi. Patty PNM isn't even thinking about things like how she could cope with the Tri Pis' weekly spa trips and shopping sprees while she works three shifts a week at the Wag-a-Bag just to pay her dues.

Of course not...it often reminds me of "Scent of A Women." Chris O'Donnell's character tries so hard to fit in with the rich boys at his school, but he'll never be a privileged brat with daddy's money.

Are you saying does a Miss Popular get cut from a The Miss Popular chapter?

Sure. Sometimes it's because she has a "reputation" among the Miss Popular type groups. Sometimes there are too many Miss Populars and someone has to be cut.

And yes, it's possible for a Miss Popular to be cut by Nice Regular House. Nice Regular might feel as if they already know that Miss Popular is not going to be interested, and might cut her.

Of course, these are just my own thoughts. Every school and recruitment is different and anything can happen. There are plenty of instances of certain chapters taking on girls who are different than they are. It happens.

Oh, I was wondering more so do you think the miss popular who gets cut is going to have things in common with the non-miss popular chapters just as the regular girl does not have much in common with the miss popular chapter

I don't really want to get too off-track here.

My point was if you base your choices on who you WANT to be, you could end up spending your college career trying to BE something instead of being comfortable and being yourself.

It was one long run on sentence, there shouldn't have been capitalization. I did miss a question mark at the end though
