Thanks everyone!

Thank you all for the nice messages and condolences... I am probably more surprised and shocked than anything. One of her top choices (and one of the 3 that dropped her today) was my chapter at Auburn - so you know that hurts, too. Even though I knew all of the facts about legacies, recs, etc. I just never thought my daughter would be completely dropped. I had been talking and talking to her about staying open minded and giving every group a chance and she was doing that. Not sure if the other two thought she was legacy and would not be open or what happened - and we will never know....

She has an audition on Tuesday (musical) so hopefully that will go well and she will be able to start out with that activity and look for other avenues to get involved.

I am still interested in what happens to the other PNM's and daughters of mom's who've been posting so I will stick around and rejoice with those that make it! Good luck to each and every one of you !!

Lavalier, you are being so awesomely understanding - as a mom AND as a sorority alumna. Too many people throw the latter out the window when things don't work out. If you have passed on your attitude to your daughter, she'll be happy in whatever she does at Auburn (or life!!).

Right. I applaud her calmness and not bashing/berating her chapter. I've seen that happen on here, too.
