If it's a structured informal recruitment, there may be times when rushees have to attend a certain number (i.e. they MUST go to all the Meet the Greeks or first round parties). There are lots of things between full out formal and wild wild west style COB.
As to the OP...I thought she sounded semi familar but was too lazy to check. Thanks, Barb.

Yes. Seems she has had a few problems with recruitment before.

Welcome to team Barbie. After the recent flow of bs stories from pnms "wronged" by sorority meanies, I don't believe any of their stories.

It makes me doubly question the authenticity when it appears that the PNM lacks the capacity to put together a coherent thought. I know I'm hopped up on antibiotics that are kicking my tail right now, but I can't even figure out half of what she's trying to say.

Bottom line: even if something unfair did happen, COB is your next option. Pursue that through the Greek Life office.

Try COB, but realize your stories aren't adding up to people on here - they might not add up to the people at your school either. Recruitment fail.

Ok i found out what happened and yes this did actually happen sorry if I am a bit all over the place but I am very very stressed.
Ok so our greek life coordinator made the COB list prior to the last day of required recruitment parties. So our attendance to that was not counted. You only needed to attend two but most girls attended 3 ( I had class for one). So yeah it sucks and is unfair but whatever.

That still doesn't explain how your school went from having 4 sororities to having 12. Did you transfer??

Im sorry that my school has made a lot of mistakes in the Greek life department but that does not mean i am lying. Things happen that are shitty, I'm willing to COB but i do feel as the though the school should acknowledge the fact that many girls were unfairly cut from recruitment.

I said that there was 12 parties in all of 3 days from 4 different sororities not 12 groups

No one said you were lying.

You never said that.
Paging Drolefille or Barbie's_Rush. Headed to the sofa now.

I'm medication free (a real miracle with allergy season in Kentucky) and I am having trouble figuring out half of what she is trying to say!

And maybe her grades are terrible because she can't communicate a coherent thought.
Or maybe the houses just didn't like her and thus she wasn't offered a bid. It's not necessarily to blame on missing a party.
