That's not what you said. You said that she wouldn't be able to be a member. That's not a blanket statement you should be making without knowing individual chapters' policies on such things.

You're right. I didn't say it exactly the way I wanted to. Regardless of individual chapter's attendance policies, I do know that even if every absence is excused, a NM will have a hard time getting to know people and finding her place if she is never there. No chapter is in need of phantom members. She's going to have a hard enough time feeling out of place because:

As far as the OP is concerned, good luck with recruitment at Western Kentucky. You've already posted enough identifying info online and left it there until last night even after being warned to scrub your info for chapters to know ahead of time that you're not going to be around much. Regardless of their attendance policies, they can decide whether or not to bid you. If it's down to you or Franny Freshman or Sally Sophomore who don't have such a busy schedule, I know who I'd choose. I also wouldn't be so quick to dismiss AOII Angel's warning of how intense clinicals are. She's a sorority alumna AND a doctor. It is not uncommon for nursing majors to fall off the face of sorority earth during their last semesters in school because they have so much to do and in ways they've never dreamed of busy before. If that's rude, so be it. It's also the truth.

Also, if you're not as busy as AOII Angel indicates that you shoułd be, could you please let me know? A ton of Nashville area people go to Western, and I want to make sure that none of the nurses at my doctor's office went there if it's super easy.

Cheer up. The chapters may meet on Sunday.
