I think they'll make a very nice addition to Gamma Phi, DZ and ADPi.

Agree. You aren't any better than the houses you're hating on. (In fact, several people think you're worse.)

Ok ladies, you don't know that that comment was posted by a KD. It's a rude comment and honestly all the KDs I know are very sweet women of God and would never say something so tacky about another sorority. Blaming hateful comments on houses when you really just don't know who posted it makes everyone look bad and PNMs just don't need to see things like that. I'm not a KD but 2 of my best friends are and this is just so unnecessary.

You know it's a KD because they listed all the bottom houses except their own

Do y'all think sororities will really discriminate against Blinn team girls despite Panhellenic? It's a serious question. I know a couple Blinn Team girls who are legitimately sorority material, they're good looking, come from good families, are sweet and have great personalities as well as personal and familial connections to multiple top tier sororities here, but they're afraid to rush as Freshmen because they don't want to be cut simply based off their Blinn team status. Would it be better for Blinn Team girls to just wait til sophomore year when they're A&M students?

Absolutely rush freshman year as Blinn team. The recruitment chairs will not count it as an automatic strike against you, especially if your grades and SAT scores are higher than full A&M girls. If they feel like you'll definitely be full A&M next year then they will pledge you because (top/good) sororities want to get rid of sophomore quota and taking Blinn Team girls now will help them do that in the long run.

Since when are they allowing Blinn students into recruitment? You have to be full time A&M.

Blinn Team girls are going to get cut from most houses. Including the houses listed above. It is just bad PR for the National sorority in general that they are taking part time community college girls. I believe they should wait until they get in full time sophomore year because all the pretty girls will get good houses but if they go through as blinn all they will get is Adpi. Also, people look down on blinn, they would be separated from their pledge class if they were blinn because everyone would have the preconcieved notion that they are not smart enough

Rush freshman year as Blinn team and if you get a great house, good for you. If you get a crappy house, drop and rush again next year.

Why should a Blinn Team girl take a spot away from a full-time Aggie... makes no sense. It's going to be difficult for these girls unless the sororities won't know who's BT...

By: how it see it...
by: uninformed   

the whole "taking a spot" thing is a myth. That's not how RFM works. There's no set ceiling of girls a chapter can take. Number of girls eligible to receive bids = number of girls signing MRABA after pref night/number of houses

considering that sororities WILL know if you're on BT I would say they would be at a disadvantage. even if they are sorority material, sororities are worried about retention overall. Let's say that a blinn team girl gets accepted full time somewhere else and wants to transfer, you lose a sister. OR if the blinn team girl doesnt make the grades to stay in blinn team and has to go full blinn, you lose a sister. Also there is the issue of space, A&M greek life isnt ready for that many girls all at once, growth has been gradual but with this new huge group of girls, IDK how they are going to cope with that amount all at once. I would think if it came down to a TEAM girl vs. a full time student, they would take a full time student.

These are all things the sororities will consider but when they evaluate a PNM based on academics, they make a decision of whether or not she will be a grade "risk" or not. You have no way of knowing whether a Blinn Team girl or a full A&M girl will be more academically successful in college- it's just whichever one will work harder. It's equally possible for a full time A&M girl to flunk out. So if your grades and test scores look promising and you don't seem risky, they will probably not take a risky full A&M girl over you

Think it will be good for legacies but I doubt any other girls will get a bid
