I'm actually very neutral on sororities, I didn't do it in college and it definitely is not my personal preference. However, if she wants to do it, I will help her figure out how to put her best foot forward.

I'm an "overachiever" with everything - spreadsheets are my bread and butter - lol. You should see my college spreadsheet! And trust me, if my d wants something, I'll figure out the way to best go about it.

I don't do the last minute panic thing well, so I figure we have all these months, let's figure this thing out.

Plus, given it's my "baby" I've got to focus on something besides my empty nest next year! Sure, I could focus on my job, but how boring would that be?

I am all for helping your kid, but I think that she needs to be driving this bus. Otherwise, she might feel compelled to make certain decisions because mommy did so much work.
