So Bama Morgan got dropped again. I do hate the general reactions of “WE RIDE AT DAWN” and people trying to harass girls in the sororities asking why she got dropped like ??? Why can’t people understand it’s a mutual process?

Yes. Of course anyone who was in a sorority knows the process and are trying to explain to an audience how it works. Apparently it was grades and we all know nationals and the individual chapters sets it.

I also forgot to add this: we don’t know how her rounds went and the conversations she had in the houses.

I just went and looked. There's some lady posting to Morgan's Tik Tok with "You should start your own sorority!!" Then there's a someone chiming in with "Same! I was a founder for my DPhiE chapter. Best thing I did during college!" and another person "OMGggg just opened to text this and urs was the first thing that came up!!!! Yessss they don’t have an Alpha Sigma Alpha- let’s go!!! As a former ASA VP- I want Morgan!"

<face palm>

That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works.

In my opinion, the desperate TikTok Aunties who have no idea how any of this works are a liability to any chapter who may otherwise have bid Morgan. There's cheering on a young woman who shows potential and is relatable, then there's the creepy parasocial crap that's going on with Morgan.

Pretty much this. The worst part was some of the other tik tok girls from the previous recruitment who were posting from the other side were getting comments like “why didn’t you help Morgan?” It became more of a liability whether or not she got a bid with all the toxic fans she had.

As I mentioned last year (though I found out sigma kappa gave her a bid and she rejected it) it’s one thing to wish PNMs good luck during rounds and cheer them on as they try to find their home, but another thing entirely to go on a witch hunt if they either get dropped or don’t get a desired result.

That is a good idea but what if she doesn't get one for COB? I don't want people to harass the sororities just on that. People don't know that recruitment is just as hard on the other side, especially for the recruitment/membership team that do an insane amount of work and logistics just for it to all go so smooth, especially at Bama with 2.5k (!!) girls going through and 100+ member PC's!

I’ve seen a few comment on TikTok that she actually got a bid last year but turned it down. That combined with whatever feelings about her social media presence has supposedly blacklisted her.

Saw the same thing. As someone else said, she said she plans to COB. This is not her first rodeo at Bama. She should know that CoB opportunities are few and far between. The chapter that offered her a bid last year ( which she didn’t accept) will likely be COBing as they are the new kid on the block, but I doubt they will give her a 2nd chance. I have a difficult time believing that she thought posting her rush experience AGAIN would provide a different ending than last year. I think she did it to gain followers and make some money.Speaking of followers, some of her followers seem to have a loose hold on reality. Yikes!
