Yesterday's open rounds went good!

Moose- I liked this house. I was bumped FOUR times though, which I didn't like. All of the girls were very nice though and I felt comfortable.
Turtle- Right off the bat I felt very uncomfortable and both girls asked me questions I don't think were appropriate for recruitment, especially open rounds. I really hope I don't have to go back here.
Owl- My best friend is in this chapter and I thought I would probably like it, but it was okay. I don't really have much to say about it. I didn't feel I had anything in common with the girls I met.
Monkey- I only met one girl here and we got along well. Although it wasn't bad I didn't feel a connection at all. This chapter has the highest GPA on campus and I don't have the best grades, so I didn't want to get my hopes up. They were all very put together and classy.
Mink- This chapter is new at school and we all went in knowing they may not be "great" at recruitment, but it was worse than I thought. The girl rushing me was wearing a dress and she kept sitting with her legs APART. This and a few other related things made me really uncomfortable.
Otter- I LOVED this house. The girl and I had so much in common and we just seemed to instantly click. Our time was up before I knew it!
Elephant- I really liked these girls. They all seems really down to earth and welcoming! Nothing bad to say.

At the end of open rounds I ranked them as follows:
Otter
Elephant
Moose
Owl
Monkey
Turtle
Mink

Today for philanthropy there were six possible invites. I received four, which I was happy about because I expected less.

Otter
Elephant
Moose
Mink

Being dropped by Owl surprised me, but the rest were expected. I will update how today went soon

This actually sounds like some sort of bass-ackwards way of weeding people out - i.e. if you feel uncomfy with these questions you won't feel comfy with us in general and it's better for both sides to know right away. There is a way to do it subtly, however, without making the PNM feel like she has to take a bath afterwards.

Hope the rest of your recruitment goes well!!
