<strong>Subject:</strong><br />when alums send in "no recs"<br /><br /> Poster Message:
Can it keep someone from getting into a sorority? I know of a few girls who went away to schools where people from their high schools didn't go,one reason being they thought their reps (mainly over-the-top mean girl reps) would keep them from getting into sororities. I'm trying to convince someone that this plan might not work out if alums send in "no recs" on her saying she wouldn't be a good sister because of how badly she's treated other girls. She doesn't believe there's such a thing as a "no rec" but I know there is. If you don't have friends in sororities to stand up for you, it seems like a no rec could really hurt, but maybe they only carry weight if it's from an alum sorority members know. I don't really know, but she reads this site and Ole Miss is the top school she's hoping to get into, so at least help me convince her about no recs. She says if they don't want to give you a rec, they just won't do it. That's true, but older family members who are alums have told me they can officially let sororities know they don't recommend someone. Thanks for any answers.
