Well, it doesn't surprise me at all that your interview went so well..you are so thoughtful, intelligent and enthusiastic. I'm sure Lynda was thrilled to have a conversation with someone like yourself.
I can't wait to read your next update.
Good luck, my thoughts are with you!

GO DZ!

Good luck to all potential DZ's! My former CCD Shelby is supposed to be interviewing people. Maybe she talked to some of you!

Have a blast!

Unhappy

Heartbroken again...I didn't get an invite...

I know that there is a lot of people going through recruitment, but I thought after my interview that I had a really good chance. Oh well, no more hopes of Greek Life for me. I don't want to go through the humiliation again. I'm sorry for being so down, but this really sucks. But I am going to the movies tonight with my boyfriend and I'm just going to try and forget that today even happened. Thank you gals and guys so much for your continued support throughout all of this. I wish I could call you all my sisters...but whatever is meant to be will be, and I guess DZ is not meant to be a part of my life. Special thanks to Iowahawkeye for many PM's of encouragement...Thanks for everything...

Bye

I don't care if you're Greek or not - you've got the right attitude and that's all that matters in life! You didn't need to go Greek, the Greek system needed YOU!

...and if you are still interested, there's always rush another semester, or even alumnae initiation...GPhiBLtColonel can tell you about that, she's helped lots of other people with it!

some chapters are still COB'ing as well. I don't know if you're interested in that, but it is an option.

Ditto what Geekypenquin said. You sound like a great woman. I would love you to meet my daughter there! PM me about alum initiation, also, for later.

Unhappy

Im sorry to hear that you didn't get invited back for prefs. Sounds like you would be a great girl for colonization of DZ and for that matter, any Greek organization! DOn't get too down about it - I went through formal recruitment twice and even did some COB events in between. The second time I pledged though! Whatever you decide, keep the good spirits up as you sound like a wonderful girl. Again, Im sorry you didnt get invited back to help with the colonizatino.

I am so sorry UFrushee05!!! I feel sad and happy all at once. Prefs was beautiful. They had to do two ceremonies. Each has 100 girls and then they will call 150 of us later. I am sooooo excited, it gave me chills!!! Will update if I get a call!!

Thumbs up WOO HOO!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

UF56, may I be among the first on GC to congratulate you on becoming part of the DZ colony!!! I am SOO excited for you & have been anxiously following your entire rush saga, as have soo many other GCers I'm sure! I very much have admired both your honesty & tenacity throughout this entire process - your story is a great example for all that persistence does indeed pay off and also that things do happen for a reason! Cliches? maybe, but soo true nonetheless.

Once again, CONGRATULATIONS on your DZ bid ~ you will make an amazing founding sister!

Much Greek Love,
~ Jen (alumna)
AGD - DZ '97
