To all of you who welcomed me with your kind words, thank you very much. And to southernyankee, my best wishes to your daughter too. From what I've gathered, rush is going quite well. My daughter said they had tornado warnings briefly in Tuscaloosa along with an incredible rain storm. A lot of soaked but happy young ladies. And honeychile, I'm not Joe Namath (unfortunately). Just another Washington, DC lawyer among a zillion others. Now Joe Namath - that is somebody! Not enough can be said for all the wonderful alumnae out there who assisted my daughter and others with recs. Many took the time to meet with her at Starbucks for personal interviews, then kindly offered to introduce her to alumnae from other sororities. If we could not find a local alum, national headquarteres folks were exceptionally gracious in finding connections for which we are truly grateful. One alum interviewed my daughter, then asked to speak to my wife about the pending departure of our little girl to a distant university many miles away. If this is typical behaviour among sororities, then I can expect nothing but the best for my daughter if she is fortunate enough to receive a bid. I will keep you posted - please let me know if there are any things I cannot mention during the process. Thanks!

Question, were You affiliated with a National GLO?

I find it admirable that you found this Site and asked queations!

The Kids have to go off on their own and one can only hope that the training they got from Parents and Teachers were good enough to make them think about what they are doing!:D

:D I would like to announce that Indigo, who is at Georgia Tech, is a proud new member of:

Zeta Tau Alpha!!!!

Woohoo! This means that she and Red (at Auburn) are now best friends and sorority sisters!

aww thats soo cool that now your best friend is in the same sorority:)

Yeah for Indigo and ZTA! One of my bridesmaids and best friends for 20 years was a ZTA at Georgia Tech in the early 90's. She lived in the house for a year and I thought it was beautiful!!!

I love happy endings!!

Congratulations to Indigo and her Zeta sisters and friends.:)

Wow! One of my sister's close friends at Tech just pledged ZTA, too!!!!! I didn't even know she was rushing, and now she and Indigo are pledge sisters!

yea!! welcome to indigo.

Yay! More rush excitement! A girl that our sixth daughter cheered with has decided to rush at Valdosta next week and so has another classmate of theirs and so have their 2 friends! I don't know if I'll get updates during the process but I hope to and I'll post end results too!

yea!! go vsu girls-and what colors are you choosing for them?

Colors! Aiee, I forgot about that and there aren't any more rainbow colors. (I still don't know where Orange went.) Okay, let's take red-orange and call that PNM Tangerine and blue-green for the other one, we'll call her Turquoise. I don't know the other 2 but I'll report where they went when we get results. I talked to Tangerine this morning and she asked, "What are recs?":eek: Luckily, recs aren't as necessary at VSU but still, I got some really quickly--also, there's a VSU girl from here who pledged with BlazerCheer...she's an officer in their sorority now so there's one sorority member that Tangerine knows. (This girl, btw, is Red's sister, Red being a new Zeta at Auburn.)

BBelle, good luck to your PNM!

VSU rush starts on Sept. 2nd, I believe! :)

I was told that quota was set at 58 and a lot of groups had quota additions. Yea, everybody! Warrrrrrr EAGLE!

Congratulations to Munchkin's girls and your Rainbow girls! Best of luck for the start of a good year!

:) I just learned that for prefs, Tangerine is going to KD and Zeta and Turquoise is going to KD and ADPi!:)
