I have now heard several stories about PNMs being rude to the actives in several sororities. All I can figure out is that they're trying to get cut or they just think they're too good for them. This is not the Auburn spirit.

What these girls dont realize is that most girls have friends in other chapters..they may even live with girls from other chapters. Word gets around about the really rude ones..and gasp...they probably wont fare so well in the end.

I hate to say it but some girls are just mean. You'd think they'd outgrow that but some don't.

A lot of that is "big fish, small pond" syndrome.

They come from their small pond (HS) where they were most popular, Homecoming Queen, a shoo-in for everything, etc. and as resident Queen Bee of their high school, they've never really HAD to be nice to anyone to get anywhere.

Then they get to recruitment and figure that it'll be the same way. Unfortunately, if these women are well-connected to the chapters they want, it might.

However, if they're the type of Queen Bees who have a skewed perception of how desirable they are in the process (ex: you think that because you were Homecoming Queen, you're going to be an XYZ or ABC without knowing that these groups have had their minds made up about first round before you got to school) they're certainly in for a wake-up call.

One I was initiated I was shocked to learn this happens even at my very small, noncompetitive recruitment school. I will never understand, but ive been told I'm way too nice to begin with. Poor girls, hopefully those being mean will learn from their mistakes asap.
