just wondering

by: Middle tier active    

Here is a question for all you PNM's.

If you are not on our top lists, and we know you will be cut after the first round, how would you rather we treat you?

Should we lead you to believe you will be invited back, or should we just be nice and thank you for coming through?

Don't forget that the top houses will be dropping half of you after the first round and the middle tier houses will be dropping a third of you.

It was a valid question. Why all the thumbs down? Nobody likes the comment, but nobody has the guts to answer.

I would rather just get a thank you. Better to not get my hopes up

I think most gave the thumbs down because of the negativity in the last paragraph.

I also don't think you are gutless if you choose not to respond to a stupid post.

The negativity of the last paragraph? Oh, you mean the truth?

I guess PNMs don't want to face the realization that a house will cut them. Actives hate this post because it's a way to tell PNMs to give up.

Just be nice!!!!! Don't be overly energetic, because that would definitely lead PNMs on, but be nice and try to have a great conversation and try to connect with PNMs even if you don't think they'll be getting an invite back to next round (You never know when you might really connect with someone and fall in love with them). You should want to make them feel at home during the time in your chapter. Just don't over do it. You don't want to give girls a bad taste in their mouths when they think about how you led them on and then dropped them after first round! Don't be rude but don't be over energetic. Just be normal and kind. Be a good representation of your organization.

I'm a PNM... What kind of middle tier sorority worries about turning girls down?! You need all the help you can get!

By: ha!
by: LOL   

You are so not a PNM, but nice try. You're just a bottom tier girl trying to make middle tier look bad so you can look better.

How do you figure @ha! Are you a student? Do you even know the girls?

You sound like a girl who is getting attention from a top house and you think that you're better than the other girls.

I mean, just common matters would be nice.
Dont lead a person on, but being rude can ruin someone's confindence and make them think negatively about your house. It is also classless. Be a good representation of your sorority. Being rude to pnms is a big nono

Just remember you were in our position not to long ago.

Nobody said anything about anybody being rude. The question was: should we lead you to believe you are getting a bid,!or should we just be nice and thank you for coming?

Great example is kd. They lead EVERYONE into believing they are getting a bid. This leads to a lot of girls getting their feelings hurt when they are cut. On the flip side Ddd gives girls who they know are being cut all their bad rushers. It makes girls feel like they were treated rudely because they weren't fawned over. Xo just does all that weird touchy stuff and everybody remains confused. (The girls that want you will tap you. Alumni in corners count touches). Weird.

Don't lead us to think we will get a bid, but just be nice.
I think every PNM should have a good feeling if they will be invited back or not.
Can I ask though, instead of thanking them for coming and such, what do you do to let a girl know you are interested in her.

A happy medium between being openly rude and leading PNMs on.

At least the top houses here don't do what some do at, say, Texas.

When I went through rush I saw several girls in top tiers be openly rude to PNMs by ignoring them and doing odd things. I vowed wherever I found my home, I would never do that to PNMs. No excuses for rude behavior.

At UT. One sorority doesn't even talk to the pnms during first round. They already have their first round lists put together so they just have a "dance party". Another sorority will piggy back the girls they want out of the house at the end of the rounds and leave the rest feeling left out. Another sorority will throw glitter on the girls they are rushing and leave the girls they don't want without any glitter.

Even our top sororities don't come close to the rudeness of the girls as UT!

By: Texas
by: yes!   

In Texas the dance party is common knowledge and the sorority willingly pays the rush infractions yearly to keep doing this. The point is it is extremely difficult to get into UT and next to impossible to get into this particular sorority so they don't mind being rude and haven't for years because everyone will still list them as the one they most want to be in.

Would you mind saying the UT sorority that does this? Since it's common knowledge? I'm really interested to know

Pi phi does the dance party and then theta and kappa also do things during rush like piggy back out the members they like and leave the ones they don't in the house feeling awkward

Chi o throws the glitter.

Their top houses are just as competitive as our are. They are just a whole lot ruder when it comes to rush.

Texas is not a tacky state. Why the bitter jealousy?
