Drolefille's sister's Recruitment story

My sister is going through Recruitment this spring (YAY) at a private Midwestern university with 3 houses. She's not a legacy to any one of them (though my mom, grandma and I were all in different sororities) so she's sort of on an even footing here.

Code names will be from Gilmore Girls; the three generations of the Gilmore girls in fact.



Emily Gilmore
My sister's RA is from this house and she knows a couple of people in it. This is our hometown so that's inevitable. She has at least one rec for here.

Lorelai Gilmore
This house my sister doesn't know much about though she feels they're more cookie cutter than the other two.

Rory Gilmore
My sister has a lot of recs for this house, seems my mom knows a lot of alumnae from here. Small town syndrome at its best. One of my highschool classmates (at least) is in this house which makes me less in favor of it, but it's balanced out by a couple of the girls I played soccer with being here too. My sister likes what she's seen of this house and it may be an unofficial favorite.

Recruitment starts when she goes back to school but there are still a few weeks on that. I'm just impatient.






Standard Disclaimer: Colors mean nothing and were chosen because they're pretty. Names mean nothing. I don't dislike Emily Gilmore more and therefore gave her to the sorority I dislike most for example.

um, I went to the trouble not to mention what school it was for a reason.
Small, private, and midwestern are all you're getting. This city is like one big small town and there's no need for my sister's recruitment to be affected by a message board

Yea that is ok, I mean with only 3 sororities it might be easy for people to try to guess if they were into that sort of thing.

Minor update for now, will edit later when I get details.
My sister had her info night this evening and felt like everything went well. I find myself making suggestions such as: no you shouldn' t wear the outfit that just happens to completely match XYZ's colors, something I wouldn't have thought about without GC. Unfortunately I don't have anything in depth but she still prefers Emily and Rory over Lorelai. I keep reminding her not to count anyone out yet but we shall see what happens!

Unhappy

Updates have to wait, my sister is concerned about her identity and school being found out, so I'll update at the end with as many details as I can. Sorry my thread turned out to be a bust

But I wouldn't want anything to hurt her chances either! So I'll let you all know when I can!

I think it is wise to keep your sister's anonymity. Wish her good luck from us and that she finds a happy home!
