TAMU does have an upper class quota. My daughters has 3 roommates and one is a soph. She was cut heavy but had 5 chapters yesterday. I'm not sure about today.

My daughter had at least 2 recs for every house but one. We thought we had two for that one but we found out at the last minute that one never sent the information.

I am waiting to hear from my PNM now. She had all six parties in the first 6 slots and then two breaks. I think she's excited because it means she will get to watch the 2nd half of the Aggie game. It's going great for the good guys so far. Just went up 24-14.

I'm excited for my sweet girl and can't wait to see her tomorrow.

When do they find out where they are going for pref? A full schedule this late in the week is great! So exciting for her to find her sorority home soon.

Wow, 1400-crazy numbers! I am so happy greek life is growing at A&M. Good luck to all the PNMs tonight at pref:). Gig 'Em

Well I FINALLY heard from her. She is going to 3 yes 3 pref parties at 3 wonderful houses. I can not believe what a great week she has had. Bid day is tomorrow at 430. I will sleep better tonight.

Happy that you both can now enjoy the rest of recruitment!

Yes, congratulations to both of you! Please post your daughter's recruitment story after bid day if you can provide some details! If not, I have enjoyed following her success through your posts.

I plan to write a story after tomorrow. I don't want to jinx her.

Ha, understandable. We usually recommend that PNMs (or their moms ;) ) tell their recruitment stories after everything is over, anyway; better to lay low until there's a bid in hand!

I hope your daughter has a great day tomorrow!

Best wishes to your daughter, adiisis! Three invites to pref is amazing!

My daughter said they made record cuts this year before pref night. (Blinn team inclusion did not go well. If the girl wasn't a legacy, she was most likely cut after the first round.) Congratulations to your daughter. BTW, I've heard this year's quota is around 85. Can't wait to hear about her bid day!

adiisis 08-30-2014 12:09 PM

I can not wait. I'm about to leave and take her to lunch before "Bid Day at Blue Bell Park". I will be anxiously awaiting the call so I know at which house to be waiting for the buses full of excited girls. This has been an amazing experience. Many thanks to all of you women. I can not tell you how many nights I just laid in bed reading stories and giving her tips. I am sure she got sick of it.

I'm sure she's glad she listened though and hoping for her big "splash" this afternoon.

Gig'em and God Bless.

Have you heard the freshman and upperclassman split?

All 3 of her roommates had parties last night. One is an upperclassman and seems headed to be the sister of her last years roommate. I'm not sure about the other 2. I'll put some info about them in my story.

Hooray for all 4 girls (and all the others too).

Sad for the Blinn team girls, but not surprising.

Maybe if a few stellar Blinn girls found homes, it will lead to more next year. It is a new thing, and sometimes it takes a few pioneers to break the barriers.
