Beastman, thanks for your response. The ironic thing about my daughter’s experience is that she has long, blonde, straight hair and ( at the risk of sounding like I’m bragging), is very pretty. She spent the summer looking at the sorority websites, choosing houses that she would feel comfortable in based on the girls who looked like her.

The wonderful thing about the whole ordeal was that after the pain of rejection wore off she realized that she was much more than a pretty face and that the shallowness that she showed in " choosing" the sorority that she thought she wanted to belong to was just as bad as how sororities choose their members.

She is so much more mature now than she was in August and is happier than she’s ever been. I truly believe that things happen for a reason and that not receiving a bid was the best thing that ever happened to her.

If your daughter decides to go through rush support her, but, make sure she understands that a sorority shouldn’t define who she is or what her college experience will be.
