Daughter has 3 skit parties today. 2 standout favorites and one that she justcan'tseem to connect with. Not sure what the day will hold but she's still in it 100%.

As a side note she had 13 recs and she only made it back to 3 for philanthropy. So recs do not guarantee you past the first cut. (and most of those had 2 recs submitted)

That's great that your daughter got invited back. Perhaps she'll get to know the lone Sorority that she can't seem to connect with better. Definitely hoping her day goes well with all 3, especially the 2 favorites. Hoping for some good news next time you post (tonight or tomorrow)!

Recs are never a "guarantee" of anything. At a competitive school like Auburn, almost every pnm has them so all they do is put you on the same footing as those other pnms in that respect. With many chapters you will get cut without a rec, so when you have one you are able to at least eliminate the possibility of being cut simply because you don't have one.

Not only that, but not all recs are glowing recommendations. Just saying.

My daughter was blessed with a full schedule of parties. She is very excited. She has five of her favs left and three of her top four. Two she still hasn't felt any connection with at all. She is looking forward to a great day.

I agree with what's been said about AU. It's a great place for so much social life and activities. Everyone will find their perfect place!
