Helicopters, Snowplows and Recruitment

[GratefulGramma]

Looking back, I am even more proud of BG (Beloved Granddaughter); neither her mother or I were Greek, in fact her mother was almost anti-Greek. BG decided to go through recruitment on her own, I managed to round up two or three recs, but my step-daughter and her friends probably mangled theirs because they had no idea how to to it. BG was home schooled, never went to any camps except church camps, had one friend who was in a sorority. But she got in, found her "squad" and loved it.

Now, post graduation and getting her head together, she has been accepted for Grad School at Boston University and awarded the second highest scholarship they offer. I personally think she's going to freeze to death, but she is ecstatic; we went for an Accepted Student weekend and explored Boston for a few days (her mother and I were just there to sight-see) and she is still excited.
