how to avoid sdt?
by: PNMI'll be rushing next week and after reading the horror stories posted will be doing my best to avoid SDT. What is the best way to prevent getting a bid? I've seen a few people comment that the "computer system" screws things up for PNMs, but what exactly does that mean? Thanks

SDT is a great organization that is full of nice girls. If you think you are too good for them, then you are mistaken. If you can't accept a bid from SDT, then you shouldn't be Greek. You clearly don't understand the purpose of a sorority.
You can avoid SDT by dropping out of recruitment right now.

If a girl doesn't want to accept a bid from SDT, that means she had common sense. Don't think your letters make you one of us

Nope. Not an SDT. Just an older member who is sick to death of the entitled attitude of some PNMs. (And other actives for that matter.)

"If you had a good reputation in high school, good grades and got your rec letters in then you will be FINE. You'll land at the right house for you"
This is BAD advice and the same Panhellenic twaddle that girls without connections believe and think they have a real chance at schools with competitive recruitments. If you are from Dalhart or Sequin you can be the homecoming queen/valedictorian and have gotten all your recs in before the deadline but your chances of landing at the right house for you are SLIM and NONE. No it's not fair but welcome to UT.

Not every rusher went to Memorial or Highland Park, the mid tiers are filled with quality girls who did not go to a private school or summer camp. If your s quality rushee from a small town a decent chapter will snap you up.

Complete BS! all of the houses have small town girls, and is a lie to claim they dont. This small town girl had similar qualifications to those you listed, had recs in on time, and pledge a big hurry

Sorry! I was using voice to text and messed up! What I was trying to say is in spite of my small town at bringing, I pledged a big 6 sorority.

I think they are letting them not carry all the women they need to match quota because they end up with waaaaaay too many PNMs pushed into their parties and not enough SDTs to talk to them. So it looks like those of you who are triple legs to Kappa or Pi Phi and usually get cut by lots of other houses too won't have to go to SDT by default this year. I don't think this will help with their results, but whatever. Other sororities wouldn't be so mean about them participating if it didn't impact their own results at the end for no reason. If girls matched to SDT and then accepted the bid that would be totally different. But that is not why other groups get upset by this. RFM basically makes it so that girls who don't ever have any intention of pledging there have to keep going there and then when they get a bid they don't want it. It sucks for everyone, including SDT.

This was clearly written by an SDT. The fact of the matter is that Sigma Delta Tau DOES NOT represent greek life as a whole at Texas. SDT is more of a Tshirt club than anything else. They don't mix with fraternities, are extremely small in size, and do not have a house (every other sorority does). So no, do not drop out of recruitment now. Things will work out in your favor in the end. If you had a good reputation in high school, good grades and got your rec letters in then you will be FINE. You'll land at the right house for you even if you have to pay a visit to SDT a few times!
