I've posted the story on GC several times of the girl on my freshmen hall who was hell bent on also joining one specific sorority on our campus. Ten outstanding groups at our school, and she goes in just wanting one. To this day I am not sure why that one particular chapter found such favor in her, but it did.

She lasted 2 rounds with them, was cut, and so she the dropped out of rush.

Same story sophomore year, except I think she was cut after 1st round. She dropped out of rush again, transferred back home and went through rush at her commuter school. She even got a bid to the same sorority she was trying to join at our university.

But the story doesn't end there. She transfers *back* to our school and wants to affiliate. At this point the chapter members are well onto her scheme and actually vote against her affiliating.

She spent the next 2 years sporting those letters 24/7. I don't think one member of the chapter ever became a friend of hers.

As I have posted before I to this day wonder if it was worth it for her. She got the letters she so desperately wanted, but has no concept of sisterhood- at either the 1st school (only there one semester) or our school (rejected by them 3 times).

She was *not* a fit for the chapter that she wanted, but would have been a great member at over half of the chapters on our campus. Too bad she couldn't see that. I wonder how she views the whole thing now, 25 years later.
