Dear Anon, I have SO enjoyed following your journey and would like to chime in with my own experience. As a Yankee Mom and non-Greek, my daughter and especially I had no idea how rigorous Ole Miss recruitment was. She rushed in 2012 and her rush experience was identical to yours. I remember the phone call Sunday (Bid Day), the tears, and my daughter's fears that Greek life was perhaps not right for her. I am a firm believer in the adage "bloom where you are planted" and encouraged her to embrace these women who had chosen her...these were the people who had truly WANTED her. In a very short time she told me that it was the best decision she ever made. Fast forward to today. She is so very happy and says she cannot imagine being anywhere else. She serves as an officer, has attended national conventions, and I do not think that she would have thrived like she has at anywhere else. Thank you for not mentioning who chose you...I would like to think you are one of my daughter's sisters.
