Why am I in the backroom?

Hi! Last year I was in the front room with all the PNMs. Now, I have been assigned to the back room. I don't understand why and won't get an honest answer from the people who are head over recruitment. I am currently in nursing school and have to talk to people I barely met, so why wouldn't I be a candidate for rushing girls in the front room?

For people that are in charge of recruitment or have dealt with recruitment, what does it mean to be put in the backroom?

It doesn't matter what you say. I just want an honest answer.

Why don't you ask someone else in your chapter? We have no clue.

I understand you don't. That is why I asked what does it mean to be in the backroom. I haven't gotten a solid answer from the people in my sorority, so I'm asking on here.

It's also where they hide the people who still use the term "sratty".

You understand that we don't know why you're in the backroom, so you asked us why you're in the backroom?

Makes perfect sense.

There are a lot of reasons and a lot of them have been listed here. The only ones that are missing would be:

Awkward to talk to
No edit function on your mouth so you say inappropriate things

Even in super-fabulous chapters, SOMEONE has to do the "backroom" jobs.

Did you break out in hives for your first recruitment as an initiated member?

That's what I did. I probably would have been in the back room if I hadn't gone the Rho Gamma route (and I never broke out in hives again).
