I think she meant that the number of women that could not be invited to the next round of parties was higher than in previous years. This means that at each MS session they had to "cut" more PNMs than they were used to doing.

Could be just "tent talk", but word was that one of chapters cut around 70% of the PNMs after round 1. Does that seem possible?

Someone else will have to speak to that. I was involved in recruitment when it was still Rush, and we had standard cuts each day that never equaled 70%. It may be possible if a chapter has really good recruitment numbers for past years, but it sounds a little too excessive!

I would think that would be possible. The idea with certain groups cutting lots of PNMs early is so they have time to explore more realistic options rather than get their hearts set on a group that wouldn't pledge them.

Just got a text from cousin. It is Bid Day at Tennessee and she is a new...

Congratulations to her and Kappa Delta! One of my best friends from high school just graduated from Tennessee and this is her chapter!

YAY!! :D

Hey all, what a crazy and exhausted week. My daughter laughs when I tell her that I am exhausted from this week because she is the one going through it. I tell her I feel like I am going through this all over again but this time it means so much more because you always want more for your child. My daughter was having a difficult time choosing between two great sororities but finally at the end she felt like her heart went to Tri Delt and she accepted a bid from them today!!! Whew...I am so glad this is over. Congrats to all and I hope everyone is very happy!
