I suicided

We all need to remember that a new NPC rule is automatically resetting campus total to either average chapter size or median chapter size within 72 hours of bid day. On most campuses, this creates a few open spots for chapters that made quota but need to grow a bit to catch up in size (may have had a large group of seniors graduate in the spring, for example).

Local Panhel has to vote to use the rule, and not everyone has accepted it yet. I don't know the situation here.

They can choose to reset total to largest chapter size, mean chapter size or median chapter size.

In fact, for the chapters that choose to COB, they usually only take a handful of (meaning like 5) ladies. Next time, you should give EVERY chapter a chance. I mean, that "other sorority" was willing to consider you.

Not wanting to join a specific chapter =/= thinking you're too good for said chapter.

I really wish people would quit using that as a definitive statement.

There are plenty of reasons to not feel comfortable in a group.

How many times has GC given one woman grief for "taking a spot" for a chapter she didn't think she wanted and another woman praise for "giving the group a try" even when she didn't think she fit in with the group? This poster chose to SIP and it didn't work out. Now she has to deal with the outcome.

Good Luck OP with whatever you do!

Those chapters are huge. I find it hard to believe that anyone would have a hard time fitting in to a group of 130 NMs. als may have been harsh, but she's pretty spot on.

This. Completely.

HOWEVER, OP, ya pays yer money and ya takes yer chances. My family is constantly reminding young folks we know that choices have consequences.
