I (obviously incorrectly) guessed that last year's 70% match rate was a bit low due to Sigma Kappa coming back to the campus. So, I'm surprised such a high number withdrew this year.
If the girls are dropping because they aren't happy with the chapters left on their schedules, I think it's a shame. My daughter was so impressed with all of the chapters. She had different favorites every day and had a hard time deciding which chapters to rank as back ups after each round. Early on, she realized she could be happy in most (if not all) of the chapters at Mizzou.
Anyway, she had a great week, thoroughly enjoyed (and was exhausted by) the process and is now a very happy new member of Alpha Delta Pi. One of her best friends (the only other person she knew who was heading to Mizzou) went Chi Omega and her roomie went Alpha Chi Omega.
Thanks to all of the helpful Greek Chatters! I've been lurking for a couple of years now and learned a lot about how recruitment had changed since I went through it almost 30 years ago. My daughter had a full schedule every day. And, I'm confident the tips we picked up from Greek Chat helped make that happen.
