OMG! I know a girl who did that too! She said she didn't want a letter on each boob so she dropped the two 3-letter organizations.

And before i rushed, i wrote in my rush notebook thati decided that i liked AZD's colors the most and that two of the GLO's had similar colors and i wanted to stand out....i was so rediculous!

Reading that one was making me laugh hilariously!!

Another good one...

When I was a Rho Chi, (sorry recruitment counselor) I heard a lot of the PNM's saying that they only wanted GLO's that had 3 letters instead of only 2 because "it sounded more greek"...

oh please!

I remember when I went through rush one of the girls mentioned that she didn't like Phi Sigma Sigma because she thought that the double Sigma looked funny. Some people are just stupid

One of my sisters (I'll call her Jane) cut DG after second round (of three). In that round, they did a skit and then showed the PNM's all their cute DG paraphernalia. Her host pulled out her Hannah doll and Jane almost ran away screaming...she is TERRIFIED of clowns and anything that resembles them. That night, she cut them.

Although I was pretty sure after round one that I wasn't meant to be a DG, I knew it for certain during round two: My hostess, who was being very nice even though I was having an attack of the stupids and couldn't think of anything to say, showed me her "love book." I don't know if all DG chapters do this, but the one at my school has big sisters take blank books and fill them with fun memories, poems, pictures, etc. and present them to their littles at initiation. I AM THE WORLD'S WORST ARTIST! I was banned from sign-making during my years as an active!! I took one look at that book, told her it was beautiful, which it was, and knew right then and there I was not going to be a DG. The thought of having to make one for my future little sis was not something I could deal with.

We had a couple big boobed sisters in ASA, so the "Sigma" would end up in the valley, so to speak, and we'd have smartass guys saying "nice Alphas." Hey dude, it was funny the first time around but after that it gets old.

About the whole 2 letter vs. 3 letter thing, I also thought it was weird at first to only have 2 letters. But of course, now I am biased and like 2 better than 3! At some greek stores, they charge you by the letter, so only having 2 letters can save you $$$!

Having only 2 letters can be an added benefit, especially with all of the shirts that I have had to purchase, and living on a poor college student's budget.

Zeta

At the age of 17, I wished Zeta had at least one "greek" or different looking letter.

I always envied Zeta's ability to use regular letters - they could get ANYTHING monogrammed!

i dropped a chapter during recruitment because there were 6 girls from my HS who were members and only one spoke to me during the round (she ended up being the recruitment VP).

i had 6 seniors drop out recently just because it was the "thing to do". all the reasons they put on their drop forms were superficial....ex...my best friend couldn't go to formal, the chapter has changed since i joined, the girl i wanted didn't get a bid.....etc. good riddens!

Me too, I was talking to one of my Zeta friends about gifts for our littles or paddles or something like that, and she was like, "Oh you can just get wooden letters at Michaels." Not if I want a Sigma! It must be great because you can get letters from anywhere, instead of just the Greek store.
