recruitment

What is that supposed to mean? A d pi is not a "lesser sorority" just because they are in a rebuilding phase. Attitudes like that will keep the entire Greek system weak at A&M.

did some research and ADPi is one of the top national sororities (like all the others at A&M). This would be a good opportunity for her to get in on the ground floor of rebuilding a chapter of a top organization. I'd encourage your daughter to go through informal recruitment before her Junior year

Being from a humble background doesn't mean that you can't read the instructions panhellenic sends out. They say it's best to get recs. Every town or nearby city has panhellenic orgs that help girls get recs.

Being from a humble background doesn't mean that you don't ask questions about things you intend to do and find out as much as you can.

I'm annoyed that the poster tried to blame all her daughter's problems on being from a humble background. Lots of us are from very humble backgrounds but we take the time to figure out what's going on.

Sounds like the original poster wants something to blame.

Would think that if you were smart enough to get into A and M, you would research and know what to do. The comment to AD Pi was uncalled for. We should want all the sororites to do well and stop bashing other group. I hope that ADPi continues their hard work.

You can't blame failure to do your homework on being of "humble means."

Actually they are a true sorority at A&M. I'm sorry your daughter would rather be unaffiliated than find a sorority home. But that's all right. Sororities are not for everyone. Your daughter may have decided that she was too good for ADPi, but you may notice that she was not good enough for anyone else.

And for those who bash ADPi, just think what will happen if they are removed from campus. The sorority who is perceived as the next least desirable will suddenly be the WORST sorority ever and won't be able to make quota.

Everyone should support all the houses. That's the only way to have a strong, robust Greek system.

I see ADPi girls around and they look like they are having fun. This chapter seems more involved, they do crush parties, have formal, do Big Event just like the other houses. They seem to be close, have a nice house. Yes I think they are a true sorority. If PNMs would stop listening to the tent talk that is put out there by the other houses, this group could be a desired group.

All greeks need to support eachother and stop bashing eachother.

I am the first in my family to rush. no letters of rec, no legacy (obviously). I had a full party list every day

um, did you know any sorority girls before going thru recruitment? That seems to be a big factor at this school, more so than a letter of rec. Also, wondering did any sorority contact you prior to recruitment?
