I agree with khlkcca! that would be a definite infraction at my school because it's 100% unacceptable!
But on a positive note, great storyyyy!!!

You probably know this by now (or will reveal the true reason behind her unusual behavior later in the story), but maybe Mango Girl was a sticklor for "strict silence" and Panhellenic rules?
Unfortunately, I know many PNMs who have interpreted sisters' attempts to follow rules as being unfriendly or standoffish. At least on my campus, I wish Panhellenic would make this rule as clear to the PNMs as they do to the actives!

I'm shocked by how many PNM's stories say they were abandoned by sisters during a rush party. No matter how much you aren't "connecting" with your PNM, I can't imagine doing this! I'm sure other chapters were taught, as mine was, to be nice and treat everyone well because even if that PNM wasn't a fit for the chapter, we might love their roommate/hallmate/HS friend and we don't want them to say they felt uncomfortable or rejected at our house.

To play devil's advocate, it could be that the rushers were new sisters who just didn't understand "bumping" or hadn't gotten enough practice in rush in general. I don't think it's always rudeness or disinterest.

I cannot believe people were leaving you alone - it's just so rude!
Can't wait for the next installment!
