Everybody claps and the girl gets her delivery. The deliveries themselves could be a dozen roses, a cheap but funny dollar store trinket or something outrageous (a pinata with her favorite candy, a stuffed animal with alcohol concealed inside to make it past the house mom and the security guard at the door, etc).

Nine NPC chapters will participate in formal recruitment at SC beginning Tuesday, August 24, with an evening orientation. SDT will have informal recruitment.

All registered potential new members must have completed the alcohol education requirement before participating in formal or informal recruitment.

As of three days ago about 800 women have registered. This is a large number since only about 1300 to 1400 women are in the entering class. Many sophomores do receive bids at this campus.

Bid Night is Sunday, August 29th.

Presents will take place in October.

The craziest dinners were after one of our invites where it felt like each sorority would have dozens of deliveries for guys in our house (their dates). Also intense were when one of the fraternities was planning on asking a sorority to an exchange...in this case, the deliveries would number in the dozens, not to mention that every girl in the chapter would usually get a rose and that there were usually elaborate song and dance routines asking the sorority to an exchange.

Presents is a USC tradition that occurs on Parent's Weekend. On Saturday, all the sororities hold a Presents party where the new members of the chapter are introduced or "presented" to the rest of the campus. The new members wear white dresses (think Debutante style) and the houses are all decorated. I think UCLA has a similar tradition, although theirs seems a bit more low-key.
