what would your sorority friends recommend? since they are on your campus, they would know best what works in the wardrobe department.
none of us are trying to be rude either(at least initially). many of us work with collegiate chapters in one capacity or another, and we have seen lots of recruitments come and go.
we understand that most of the time, greek life offices are on the ball and give only correct information, but we also understand that sometimes student volunteers are staffing the front desk/answering the phone/responding to email, and they are not always up to snuff on the correct information.
i am not knocking your rho gamma roommate, since i don't know what school you go to and therefore do not know anything about the rho gamma selection process or their training, but i have personally heard rho gammas at several different universities tell pnms that they must list all the chapters on their bid card whose parties the pnm attended for prefs or the computer would kick out her name and she would be bidless. that is soooooo wrong, yet to this day, some rho gammas continue to repeat that very statement. this is why we don't just accept rho gamma advice right off the bat.
a few years ago, at another school, the panhellenic vp for recruitment told everyone, in a speech about recruitment to incoming freshmen, that they recommended the girls try to secure recommendations to every sorority(good information on that campus) and then added that the recommendations had to come from an alumna of a chapter on that campus(terribly wrong information! a recommendation can come from any alumna in good standing of that particular sorority, no matter where she attended college).
that is why we are skeptical about information provided from collegiate sorority members, panhellenic offices and rho gammas, no offense intended.
