[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I rushed and was not accepted at any house.  Our rush advisor had said early on that everyone was invited to at least one.  We'll, not me.  I was sad, disappointed, humiliated, etc. for a while, esp since roommate who was ambivalent and was only rushing because I convinced her to, got into the sorority I was desperate for.

It's 30+ years later, and the only time I've thought about it again sonve then was when our kids were applying to college and had nothing to check for if your mom was in a sorority.  Turns out both went to schools with low levels of Greek life, and had zero interest in fraternities/sororities.  It didn't really affect my life other than the initial feelings of self-doubt after the rejection.

So OP, I am speaking from experience, and am here to tell you that like much else that affects your child and therefore you, this too shall pass.  Really[/quote]

Thank you for sharing your story.
