A Colorful, Dramatic Recruitment!

[Venusloves11]

At least you didn't do what some people did one year at my university. There was one sorority without a house because of the lottery that the school had on their very small Greek Village and therefore people thought that they were "lower" than the others. On bid day some of the girls that received bids from them actually ripped up the bids IN FRONT of the sisters because they weren't their first choice and didn't want them.

Glad that the story isn't over yet.

Please tell me you're kidding! In front of them?

Congratulations, sugarberry!

Not kidding. I have a friend who was in the sorority at the time. I could have understood not accepting it or giving it a try and dropping out later in the process, but to tear it up in front of them was cold. I know from what my friend told me that people were appalled at their behavior.

This seems like an excellent way to make sure you never get another bid from any other group, ever.

What did the sorority do with them? Keep them or terminate them?

KDCat, I don't know what they did with them, but I know that the sisters that I knew, one of them being the recruitment chair, were pretty upset about it. I would think that the girls who ripped them up wouldn't come back or be embarrassed if they did. The funny part is that so many girls didn't like them because they didn't have a house and they ended up getting a house the next semester after a fraternity was kicked out of theirs.
