What Happened???

[sophiealexa]

Thank you for all of your nice words.

AzTheta, sorry I did mean preference parties, I just couldn't remember the name.

I got a call from the greek office a little while ago, and they told me that there is no record of me in the computers of having been at recruitment at all! I have no idea what happened, but they were really nice and understanding and said they would see what they could do for me since it wasn't my fault.

My ro gamma is taking me for coffee in a little while so that we can talk, too, since I'm so upset. I hope everything works out, I want to be in a sorority so badly and fell in love with three wonderful groups. At least I know now that it's not that they didn't love me back.

That is odd. If you weren't in the computer at all, how did you receive your invitation list? I wonder if you were somehow deleted during the post-pref matching? Perhaps the software keeps record of deletions...

I'm really sorry that this happened. I do hope that everything works out in the end.

You are handling this very gracefully. How could you have been invited to three pref parties if you weren't enrolled in recruitment? Sheesh!



Hang in there - it sounds like they are working with you, and it also sounds like your Rho Gamma is terrific.

Make sure they're spelling your name right. As in, go to the Greek life office and watch them type it in. Yank the keyboard out of their hands if needed.

As someone who frequently has to spell her first AND last name, and has done so as SLOOOOOOOOWLY as humanly possible, and watches the person writing it down STILL spell it incorrectly, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if this is what happened.

If you got invited back through preference, obviously the sororities that did so know who you are. Where you get a bid will probably depend on a mix of how you ranked the sororities and how they ranked you.

Good luck sweetie - I know I'd be setting things on fire about now!!
