I am only aware of one that requests a password. Did you try ALL of them? Maybe some have requested that feature do to the fact you never really know what a picture shows till it's out there for the world to see.

Moxie 08-27-2003 02:35 PM

i think only pi phi and phi mu requests passwords. i guessed the phi mu one, though =) speaking of friends going to other chapters, i had one friend go THETA and i think one went ZTA. panhellenic love, baby

Congratulations on pledging Dee Gee!!!!! Thanks so much for sharing your story! It was very well done.


Way late on clearing up some questions about the recruitment process. Although all members are encouraged to maximize their options, "suicide" at LSU still takes place. It is unfortunate. A few girls that did this this year had to be released from recruitment. Had they put down all houses they preffed with, they would have been placed in a chapter.

To echo what Moxie said about panhellenic love, I am so impressed with the way in which LSU is moving. It is great to see so many different sororities taking party pics together. It just goes to show you that the stereotypes aren't true and that members of every house can get along. "No matter the letter, we're all Greek together!"

I believe that mosts sororities here have pool parties. It isn't organized through LSU, it is usually at an alum or an actives house. This year was the first year that they required everyone to sleep over at the sorority house. Imagine 230 girls in one house!! Our party pics guy was loving it!

Did Tiger Weekly have their article on recruitment results yet?

You know Moxie, IN RETROSPECT, it's pretty funny how we ALL were hanging out, watching this thread like it was going to give BIRTH!

How IS your sister??? I bet she's happy for YOU!

Ames44 08-29-2003 01:04 AM

Yeah, 230 girls in one house was definitely a great way to jump into things. I absolutely LOVED the fact that every DG girl was willing to give up their bed for a pledge for the night.. It was so considerate of them!

Tonight was our first exchange with Acacia, it was SO much fun! Slip-n-slide in their chapter room.. :)

Ames44 08-29-2003 01:05 AM

Yeah, Justamom!

There was an update in Tiger Weekly.. I didn't see it yet, but one of the girls told me that DG, DZ and Zeta were listed. Correct me if I'm wrong, that's just what she told me earlier tonight.

justamom 08-29-2003 07:57 AM

I'm going crazy between Y'alls threads!!! This old hag can't keep nuttin straight!

Ames-I called my daughter last night and she was getting ready for the exchange as well. She LOVES this party, so much fun.

This is just too cool!:cool:

my sister is good! i think now she maybe wishes they had gone ahead with the C-section, but since her placenta moved into place or whatnot they are waiting for natural labor. she thinks baby Grant will be in there forever and just assumes the doctors will have to induce labor! she is melodramatic and just ready for her baby boy =)

I think we need a NEW THREAD for ALL the LSU GCers (and Mom/s):D
There are at least 8 of us who post and heaven only knows who's out there lurking!;)

edited-I AM SO TICKED OFF AT PARTY PICS! Now, instead of just being able to click and view, if I want to see ANY photos of my son I'll have to ask him for the code. Knowing him...he'll just forget and I won't be able to buy any of the pics for him. :(

PS-I know it had to come to this-it's just too darn bad.

Moxie 08-29-2003 04:10 PM

me too! i usually like to look at other pictures to look for my friends, and i guess i still can but now there's an extra step involved. grrr for extra steps.

Ames44 08-29-2003 09:24 PM

JUSTAMOM--

I saw that the Party Pics were posted for the exchange last night, but they're making me put in a password! I'm just dying to see them, I know there's going to be some hillarious ones in there.. Do you know the password? I put "Acacia" in and it gave me Acacia's formal.. not what I wanted. PM me if you know the password.. If not, I'll call around and see if any of the girls know.

I talked to my daughter last night. She thought they weren't going to require one! So much for insider info!

I'll try a few places and see if anything works!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LATER
I sent Party Pics a letter about the LX exchange yesterday. I was going to try some codes, but it opened right up for me. HOWEVER, could NOT get into the DG photos. I tried several things...:(

THIS IS NO FUN!

Just thought of something- The site said they give the event code out at the party....hmmmm. You could try your Social chair OR, Maybe Moxie could ask her BF if he heard the code. Unless daughter paid attention, she may not know either!

justamom 08-31-2003 06:15 PM

DID YOU FIND ANYTHING OUT???
 
Daughter just popping in tomorrow. She said to go to Party Pics USA. I did, and NOTHING!!! She did have a bunch of tid- bits.

We did not fare too well this year.:( USUALLY, we have more girls get pledged, but as it is now,
dg-1
kkg-1
kd-2
xo-1.

That's IT! I am so sad, from the current info, they were cut pretty hard. I am at a loss because of the number of legacies...OH MY GOSH, I just realized one of our legacies was cut! Her mother was the PRES of our Pan Hell for a few years!!! Maybe it's due to the higher SAT requirements. I JUST DON'T KNOW!!! Ames, Moxie,were the cuts that bad this year? What in the heck happened. We USUALLY have a MUCH better showing than this. Retention hasn't been all that great from our area, but we ALWAYS had mpre pledges!!!
