No, her friend is going to have to look at another group or another alum chapter to affiliate with, because this one obviously isn't down with it, and she wouldn't have an enjoyable experience if the alum chapter is a big part of being involved as an AI.

Or it might be that they ARE down with it, they just don't want her to join and so they're playing the duh card.

"Reminding...that AI is allowed" is kind of the equivalent of showing up at the sorority house after bid day and demanding to know why you didn't get a bid since your grades are great, you have good extracurriculars and you're cute as a button. (no pun)

From what I understood of it, the alumnae chapter thought Caryn's friend was already a sister. Maybe they haven't had an AI before and don't know how it works or maybe their signals got confused after they were contacted?

From what my friend told me, this is what it sounds like.

Good luck with your friend!!! I hope she finds her home!!!


As for HP, I thought one of the houses was Blue & Yellow (Gold). I distintly remember those colors from HP #4. I'm pretty sure Cedric was in that house. Time to pull out the trusty DVD's. LOL.

Hmm, I may have to devote my weekend to watching all of the HP movies just for "research" purposes, of course.

Gryffindor - Maroon and Gold
Slytherin - Green and Silver
Hufflepuff - Yellow and Black
Ravenclaw - Blue and Bronze

I just looked it up on-line.

Don't know if anyone remembers my AI thread, but I'm a Gryffindor.

I'm Ravenclaw...but I'm using star names for my sororities. Ravenclaw strictly pertains to my Hogwarts house.

Doesn't shock me that a lot of others used the House names in rush threads.

I'll say this much: Gryffindor isn't the same as tinydancer's is

On that note...my friend told me she made contact with the local alumane chapter of Gryffindor, and the woman she spoke to said she will keep her informed of any events that are coming up.

So that leaves around 25 possible houses for what Gryffindor could be. Good to know.

Hence why I said around 25. Read my post more carefully.

Well, I can assume you can eliminate that one.

And I can also eliminate the one that rarely does it, and the 3 that seem to do it only for alumnae of absorbed locals. However, there are a few that mention being approached by members. And there is a discrepancy between Navane's list here and Ariesrising's list at her site.

So I do not know if to count those or not.

None of the four groups fit into those categories.

Link me to Ariesrising's list (I don't have it bookmarked on here somehow( and I'll check out what she says vs. Navane's list
