Well thanks to everyone who helped me out as I was preparing for recruitment. We just received our 2nd round schedules today and all the houses I liked dropped me, so I decided to withdraw from recruitment. Unfortunately I will not get to be a greek girl, but I hope everyone else has a better experience with rush than I did.

Did you get released from all the chapters participating in recruitment or just all the chapters that you liked? In other words, were there chapters that did invite you to 2nd round but you chose to withdraw instead of attending their events? Your first post above certainly makes it sound that way.
I was invited to a lot of chapters I liked first round, but when we received schedules for 2nd round I had no invites. I guess instead of withdraw I was just dropped from recruitment. Sorry about the confusion.
I'm hoping I can find a new community in some other way this spring, maybe a professional or service fraternity. I appreciate the tips everyone had to offer here, and maybe I can still be a part of something great.
Rushing, I'm sorry you've had this experience! I think your positive attitude will take you far, though, so I see good things in your future. Find other ways to get involved on campus! Remember that even at schools with a huge Greek presence, there are still always more students that are "non-Greek". Good luck to you!
I'm sorry to hear that. I know you find some wonderful organizations to join. Echoing the poster above...even at a school like Miami, there are more independents than there are greeks and many groups to explore. Enjoy your time on that pretty campus!

Huh. Sorry, but I'm not buying the second post. It's a shame.
