Winter recruitment horror story, featuring both arrogant PNMs and a package deal:

During the 2013 fall semester, a group of freshman declared themselves via Facebook to be the hottest freshmen on campus. (They weren't.) They named themselves the "Hot 8" lso declared that they were going to join a sorority together during Winter Recruitment and that it would then become the hottest sorority on campus.

Recruitment did not go well for them. I don't think it was a total failure for all of them, but it certainly wasn't what they wanted it to be.

This is gross. When did modesty go out the window? What woman seriously calls herself the hottest freshman on campus? What school was this? Did they get bids to any sorority?

Cuts were pretty heavy for them when the invitational rounds started. That's about all I can say.

It was the "Hot 12" and this was my campus. I'll "ditto" everything KDCat said.

Ditto'ed (sp?) again. For the most part, it seems like what started as a private joke became public one night due to an intoxicated "member" and got out of hand. Most of them have yet to live it down.

To my knowledge though, most (?) of them received bids, and many of them joined the same chapter.

It's also so funny to have someone else involved in my campus on this site.....it's interesting to get another perspective on things.

Maybe they were watching too much Sydney White

I'm confused. Is "anymore" no longer a word?

It's still a word - it just wasn't the right word(s) for the sentence.

anymore = in the recent or present period of time

any more = some additional amount
