We are shopping and preparing, and to a certain extent, I am glad that she has the chance to choose her own path without feeling legacy pressure! I plan to write her story, but will post it after it ends. I also have quite a rec crew that I will update after recruitment concludes for my daughter.

I wrote 16 recs for my sorority for my daughter's friends attending different universities. These ladies are all incredible and I look forward to seeing where their journeys take them!
Good luck to your daughter! My daughter was in the same situation. This summer I ordered matching dangles for our badges, which was fun (the dangle we use for HCB president is the same one her sorority uses for VP-Housing).

Sciencewoman - what a great idea! My daughter does have her grandmother's chapter at her school (and we have grandmother's pin in case she goes in that direction) but I love the matching dangle idea. Thank you!

We don't have a chapter at Tarleton State, but I have a former student going through recruitment there and have helped her line up recs!

Long time lurker ... first time poster

I've written recs on & off for several years, but have entered the glorious stage of life where my kids, friends kids, etc. are all graduating from high school.

Watching what happens for my favorite PNMs:

~ University of Kentucky {3}
~ Northern Kentucky University {1 for now, may have more ... this is my alma mater}
~ University of Georgia {1}

Big news is that Delta Zeta is colonizing at Western Kentucky University ... so I'm hoping to start writing for them soon

In addition to writing for DZ, I helped my mother come into the modern age & got her registered at Kappa Alpha Theta so she could send an introduction for my childhood best friend's daughter ... she swears she'll never do that again & that she'll be hand writing my daughter's rec in 5 short years.

Can't wait to see where everyone lands!

LOL! Love this title for my upcoming thread! Guns blazing is right...we spent the morning shopping to match shoes and Kendra Scott accessories to outfits. Holy cow! Sweet daughter is very particular!
