legacies

I think UGA has so many legacies come through that if they did not make these cuts the other girls who do not have ties would not stand a chance. There are some upset Alum moms of sororities who have daughters going through rush and they need to realize that being a legacy at UGA does not guarantee a bid. I don't know about other sororities but it doesn't work that way at UGA.

Congrats to those who have received invites back today! Good luck to all!

I second that. I know first hand of legacies that got cut from my chapter. Thankfully, the daughters found homes and are very happy with their sororities. On another note, I have not heard from my PNM since before invitations were issued yesterday. I sent an email but for now just sitting on pins and needles.

The women heard around 7:45, at least some did. I think the women may be at parties now.

They heard by 2:30 this morning if they were released. From what I hear, there was lots of staying-up-til-2:30-and-then-getting-up-to-get-ready-at-5:30. I hope these girls can get some sleep once prefs are over today!

The young lady mentioned in my post has had a fine recruitment and by good fortune she had six parties yesterday and three today. She is both happy with her choices and GRATEFUL.

My cousin was definitely one of these people. Again, good news and bad news. The Good news is that she has 3 invites. The bad news is that her remaining favorite (Vanilla), which has been consistently in her top 3 from after day 1, did not invite her back. She's taking it really hard, especially since she said she's had the best relationship with them from start to finish (although they were #3 from day 1 in her mind).

She was pretty down for a while, but is still happy that Chocolate invited her back (her new favorite as of now). The 2 houses (Strawberry and Cookie Dough) that she did not really connect with for a while (until the other day) also invited her back. She said she would be very content on ending up there, if she is fortunate enough, but Chocolate is definitely ahead of the pack. I did not call her, she sent me a text. She left me a voicemail, and it took me a while to realize who it was, the poor girl, she had hardly any voice and she was really emotional-it was about a 3 minute voicemail.

I really feel awful and am really praying for her harder than ever before. If you can, it'd be great to keep my cousin, and the rest of those, as well as posters on GC, going through Recruitment at UGA in your thoughts. There is only one more day, but it has clearly taken an emotional toal on a lot of people.
