I don't know if you'll read this but I'm really sad to hear you dropped. Rush was really hard and definitely emotionally draining. Maybe you could try spring recruitment or look into what the girls above said about the new colonization. If you need a massive hug let me know. It was a really rough week

hey all

it was a sad day. i got cut from all the houses that i liked and i ended up dropping out of recruitment. i did go to the two parties i had today to be mature and respectful but i didn't feel a connection with either one.

i am completely devastated right now...words can't even describe how gutted i am. the walk from my last party to my dorm was the hardest thing i've ever done because i had to walk right by the lines of girls for the three houses i loved most. all my dreams about college revolved around being in a sorority and now that is lost. my rho chi said i should try again this spring or next year but i don't think i can go through this again. i've never been so hurt in my life.

this will probably be my last post at gc and i just wanted to say that i am incredibly grateful for all of the help and support i recieved from gc members since i started posting. you all are wonderful and i have no hard feelings towards anyone except myself.

peace & love

giuliana

Giuliana,

I wish you had stuck it out and participated through preference and then made your decision. Even though the 2 Chapters you had left were not your top choices there really isn't a bad Chapter at ASU. They ALL have something to offer. I had a relative who had a similar experience and stuck it out. She joined a Chapter that was in a rebuilding phase and has had a wonderful experience AND made a difference in the Chapter. Her Chapter is now considered one of the "top tiered" houses on campus.

With the large release figures this year we are releasing wonderful women who would be great members. It is so much more restrictive with the new RF's we are given and I always feel like we are releasing some really great PNM's.

I hope you will look into AGD's recolonization or Spring recruitment. Not every house does it, but it is a lot less stressful. Good luck to you and don't be hard on yourself. If nothing else, use this experience to grow and learn a little about yourself.
