After sleeping on it, I need to clarify one thing. The Ole Miss alumnae are every bit as incredible as the active members. They honestly love and care for their houses and the girls in them (current and future). I might have portrayed them a little too harsh! I think these ladies work harder than the active girls do and for that I thank them! Throughout the year they provide loving support to the girls. Even as my daughter was going through recruitment, they were there to calm her.

So to all the ladies I have just offended, a big ole I'm sorry!

I still agree with the new silence rules, but have to admit you ladies are incredible. A great example is greekchats very own Mary Poppins. She is there throughout the year with incredible advice, but has gone silent since last Sunday. Props to all the Mary Poppins out there.

You did nothing wrong and have nothing to apologize for. You responded factually to a statement that had been raised concerning alumnae overstepping their bounds during rush at Mississippi. Those alumnae did overstep their bounds. They knew exactly that their actions would cause undue pressure on the PNMs they contacted-and if they didn't they are extremely insensitive. It could have, and may have, cost some girls a bid. Giddy can try to spin it however she (?) wants, but we know alumnae calling PNMs during recruitment is WRONG and is against the rules!

To Giddy: Had the alums not contacted H2H daughter, and had she chosen to place that chapter low on her list and gotten the invitations she had hoped for, then the computer program would have moved another PNM up on that sorority's list. All their available slots would have been filled.
