Carnation, I'd go with the gems... but also, take care not to say anything that will obviously link a gem to a particular sorority... for instance, if you say "My daughters said 'pearl' had a truly atrocious jungle theme at today's party" and someone from Valdosta whose sorority did a jungle theme that day reads it, she'll figure out pretty quick that (a) her sorority is 'pearl' and (b) your daughters didn't like it, and as a result, 'pearl' may cut your daughters. But if you keep it to more generic comments, like "they hated the theme at 'pearl' but they both love 'diamond' and 'emerald'" it should be ok. I'm really looking forward to reading their rush stories - but at the same time, I don't want their chances at a bid to be jeopardized.
