Recruitment at these schools? - Page 2

Parfait · #1 03-01-2010, 01:26 AM

Thank you for that link, it was full of information and answered questions I didn't realize I had.

Unfortunately there were no links in my area, or even my state. There was a listing but I couldn't follow a link or search it. Oh well, I'm not really shy but it just seems kind of wrong to go "Hi! You don't know me will you write me a rec please?"

I mentioned greek life to a few of my instructors and got either confused looks or "WHY would you want your grades to suffer as you drank your tuition away?!" which I thought the latter was a bit rude, but whatever, that's their problem. One woman was really nice and I'm starting to wonder if recs are hopeless.

Also I know someone PMed me but I accidentally deleted it.

I believe it was gee_ess. I'm sorry about that.

Some people are allergic to perfume. As an active we were always told LOTS of deoderant (carry it with you and hand it to your rho chis, refresh between rounds) but NO perfume. You don't know what scent is going to bug / sicken your active so it's probably better to avoid it. Plus there are going to be so many other girls crammed in the same room, too many scents can be overwhelming.

The "no perfume" rules are for actives, not rushees, unless you're told differently at your rush orientation meetings.

As someone who feels naked if she doesn't wear some sort of scent - I honestly don't think 1-2 spritzes of after-bath body spray (not cologne or perfume) is going to hurt. No heavy musky or flowery scents - green or LIGHT lemon is better. It'll probably wear off in 2.5 seconds, but I totally understand the psychological thing of needing to feel "done" and feeling completely off your game if you skip a step.

I really, really want to encourage you to get in touch with an alumnae panhellenic group in your area. These schools are not considered competitive but it is always good to make contact with an alumnae group.

Parfait, I just PM'd you with some info (but I wasn't the one you deleted before).

Parfait - It may have been me that Pm'd you, but I evidently deleted it! I think I remember the conversation though.

You need to email (or call)the npc.org link provided above and ask for the contact person in St Louis, Kansas City, or Springfield. There may not have been a link on the website for those specific orgs, but by contacting the npc website directly, you will reach the right person.

Just another brilliant, insightful and completely out-of-touch post from Brutally*Honest about her fancy "classy" friends. Which she seems to have deleted once called out.

"annabella"... I must say that you are a real "class act." You certainly convey a wonderful impression to the general puplic of a refined and educated sorority member.

I was affirming that Drury is considered to be a very good private school. Drury has a strong regional reputation and attracts a large number of very affluent out of state students. I am very connected to Drury and was trying to convey information to the OP that I felt had been misrepresented by posters who know nothing about Drury nor the demographics of the student body. However, you fly in and immediately post:

You have no idea who I am nor do you know anything about me or who you are dealing with. I suggest you pause and think before posting rude, immature and inappropriate comments. Comments like that make you appear so...

As always,

What happened to the rest of your posts B*H? You had quite a few more yesterday.

Of course we know who you are. You're none other that NutBrnHair, former National Archivist for Chi Omega Sorority -- who had to create a sock puppet on GreekChat because you didn't dare behave this way with your regular username! What would your sorority and partner think?

If your post was fine, then why did you feel the need to delete it? The only reason I redacted mine was because it just didn't make sense after you deleted yours.

I like that you didn't bother to quote the logical part of what I said. Your post was written in a rather condescending style.

And let's not act like no one has any idea who you are.
