@fu...In reading your reply, I am surmising that you are a sorority girl? To the parents who wrote about their daughters' rush experiences... my sympathies are extended to you and your daughters. Rush is a demoralizing experience for many girls, especially the ones who are completely cut or the ones who don't get their first choice(s). It is easy for the rest of us to voice our opinions on why someone didn't get asked back, etc. I am appalled at some of the comments on this site... I was never a sorority girl but my sister was and I can tell you that rush is often a game of who you know and who you don't as to which house you get bids from. Girls who have the same g.p.a.'s and other "qualifications" as others are cut after the first day for reasons they will never understand. Is it a crime to desire a certain house and when not asked back, decide to drop out? No... if a girl doesn't click with a house then she shouldn't join. End of story... this does not make her a lesser individual or mean that she is a queen bee who thinks she's above the other houses. Joining a sorority just for the sake of joining is silly!! Some girls need the sense of belonging that a sorority gives... it's an extension of their high school experience, perhaps. Tell your daughters not to go away from this process with shattered confidence because in the end, it's a bunch of girls making a judgement call on another person in a short amount of time. It's a difficult process for all involved.
