It saddens me to read about girls that feel trapped by their bids. Recruitment is such a perplexing time. It occurred to me today while I was at dinner and heard someone complaining about a situation that I chalked up to our crazy city called Austin. Perception is such a strong emotion and such a strong motivator. Perception is reality.

At every campus across American you find chapters who have many girls on their lawns and for someone in the group (I would go as far to say this happens to every single chapter on every single competitive campus) it simply was not her first choice, but for many, it is their dream house. It makes it so hard to guide women into choices because one thing we don't have a visual on, is the heart.

What rocks one girl, can turn off another. Some girls want the familiarity of what they have always known, some want a different view point so they can grow into who they want to be. So actives can prepare all week long for these lovely women to come see what they have to offer but behind the fancy straws, the perfect cupcakes, and the coordinating outfits, is a chapter who at the end of the day, can't orchestrate a song that sings to every heart.
