what would rush be without a carnation nation thread!! yea for the rainbow girls!!

Thank you!

Yes, there was a Theta chapter for a long time and they were Pi Phi's next door neighbors back in the day. We want them back!

Are you going to keep track of the 2 non-Auburns too? Where do they fit in the Rainbow scheme?

Sending them good thoughts!

LOL. They can be Orange and Indigo. Of course, my husband the science teacher had to point out that I got the first 5 in the wrong order of the rainbow, I just knew I was going to do that. Tough, it gets left that way at this point!

Here's hoping for frigid temperatures in the eighties and no rain during the day!

ROY G. BIV :D or BIP if you use purple instead of violet

Theta left AU back in 1999 or 2000.

A pledge class of 60ish is what I would expect.

Good luck to all the AU sororities!!

FYI: The University of South Carolina *is* an SEC school.

Quota at UGA is usually between 54 and 64, and we don't place as many women as AU. I wouldn't be surprised if their quota was 61 or higher.

oops I thought it wasn't...oh well! but you got the point I was trying to make.

I'll be reading this one! I sent off a few Auburn recommendations for hometown girls this weekend!

I know that they increased the GPA threshhold due to the fact that it's so competitive to get into Auburn now. This will probably cause a few cuts as well...

Good Luck to the Rainbow Girls!!! Can't wait to hear where they all end up! :)

Just out of curiousity, what was the old GPA cut and what is the new?

I think Auburn usually loses, what, about 200 PNMs? So if that's all they lose this year, quota could be 70 or above!:eek:

The year I pledged, at URI, the classes were the largest ever, at 63 women! Back then there were six NPC's, then my senior year a seventh came. Now, they're at something like 16 and the new member classes way smaller.

1999 was Theta's last Rush (the same year as my big sis), but I don't know if they made it to winter/spring quarter, or whether they left soon after Rush.
