Hey bamaaoii-
Is it normal that the new members wear t-shirts and shorts for bid day and the members are dressed up? Do the members go change into shorts?

Great pictures!

yes its always been this way because they are all sitting in the football stadium waiting to recieve their bids and once they open them all the new members meet with a member of the sorority holding a poster in front of the stadium and then they run to the house, so its kinda nessecary they were shorts so they don't get all sweaty and ruin their pretty clothes.. the sisters of the house are waiting in front of the house with their bid day shirts and a bad for them full with cute aoii stuff, as long as i've been there we always dressed up and they always wore the shirts and shorts or capris...

ps you should really come check it out one day they call it running of the bulls, all the frat boys and parents come out to watch these girls running to 14 different houses. its AWESOME

Nu Beta (Ole Miss) started wearing dresses on Bid Day about 3 years ago. It's really nice I think. Some of the houses at Ole Miss do it and some still just wear shorts and their cute Bid Day shirts. All of the NMs however wear shorts or cute jeans and their Bid Day Jerseys!

My daughter, now a senior, is sooo excited! She said that Delta Epsilon chapter took the best of the best with 30 fabulous girls (20 was quota plus they had 10 QAs). Yayyy! She was so excited that she was hoarse and she'd only had 15 hours of sleep in the past week but said it was all worth it!

Thanks for the update, C! I love happy news :)

Fabulous!

Carnation,
I was just going to make a report and you beat me to it! I was there all weekend and they had the best recruitment I have EVER seen them have. Most years AOII is head and shoulders above the rest, but this year they were head, shoulders, knees and toes above everyone else.
Baby Berry kept me entertained all weekend, she is one of a kind!

:eek:OH NO!!!! Do I want to know what she did to keep you entertained or would I be better off not knowing?LOL!

She says y'all pledged half of this town!

LOL - some things are just better left alone!! Those Rome girls love AOII.

Yay for Arkansas! 73 new members! Quota was 63 and they are above total too!
