Legacy dropped R1 recruitment

I know my sorority has eliminated the requirement to contact the legacy connection.
There simply isn't time. And what are they going to say? "We hated your daughter?" Of course not. All they can say is, "Sorry." And they'll never give you a reason. They may not even know - she just came up short in the numbers.

I have heard that a lot of people who made those calls were verbally attacked by the mother or sister.

I've lived it, and it is not pleasant.

I would think that an email should suffice, rather than a phone call.
