unamadre - My D also did not get into her top choices last year but did pledge at another sorority and as you would expect, really likes her sisters, can’t imagine anywhere else, blah, blah, blah… However, she is still friends with all her other non-Greek friends, makes time to hang with them, etc. One will be living with her and some girls from a variety of sororities next year in Collegetown. Most of the non-greeks live in West right now. Some non-greeks even live in soroity annexes right now.
Your D can always pledge next year. I know my D and some of her sisters did some sort of writing campaign to get one of their friends in the sorority. maybe your D would be interested in that.
So although it feels like crap right now, it really isn’t the end of the world. From what D says, alamode is spot on.
PS I guarantee you, D would have never passed a clothing or manicure test.
