I could see them doing a compromise where they do the first part before school starts and the final 2 rounds the first weekend. There aren't football games that early in the year, right? But with all those girls at the first 2 rounds, the number of parties that have to happen and the still very small number of chapters there, pushing it back for at least the first 2 rounds seems much more civil. It seems schools that went to the split schedule have higher return rates than before they went that way. Ole Miss already has excellent placement rates, so maybe it would just get some girls happier with their choices because they'll have a little time to think about it?

No one has said that she is coming to this tomorrow afternoon. Rather than sit alone in the upstairs bar and have Ole Miss fraternity men think I'm a cougar trawling for a cub, I prefer to attend my daughter's soccer practice. But having invited you all, I can't abandon you if you would favor me with an affirmative RSVP. After noon tomorrow, I'll be planning on wearing my running shoes and hoodie if I'm not advised that you are coming. MP

Very late response
 
Having experienced OM rush with my only girl (3 sons, 2 are graduated) all I can say is it was seriously intense for both the girls in sororities and the PNMs. All the girls from our hometown got their top choices - maybe a couple got 2nd choice. However, we're from a big MS town so they had a big advantage, I suppose. I am really glad I went (with major hesitation) and was there when my daughter made it to her new house full of sisters. Haven't seen her chapter's list in DM - have only seen KD DG Theta and AOPi. If anyone has links to the rest, please share! I was another sorority at AL but am glad my daughter loves her new class. I've heard 121 are in it. I was told this weekend that quota was 100 and they added on 18+ per house. I don't know if that's right, but it's what some girls we knew that were on the other side of rush have said. I love that OM places as many as possible. Anyway, thanks so much GC ladies, you helped me survive 2 frat rushes and 1 sorority rush. One more to go.....

Quota was 117, and all groups made quota.

ADPi pledged 309 with their initial colony class.

A very healthy sorority membership environment exists at Ole Miss. Congratulations to everyone involved!

I thought I would post today's article from hottytoddy.com both here and on the Alabama Minorities greekchat page since it's been discussed in both places:

Amen to all of the above!

My heartfelt thanks - and that of every Alpha Delta Pi, I'm sure! - for the massive Panhellenic outpouring of support from all around!

If you're near Oxford, make plans to see Ole Miss Theatre's production of Hairspray at the Ford Center today at 2 and 7:30 or tomorrow at 2. The show is very well done and many of the actors/actresses are Greek!

Nice way to spend a Saturday since the Rebels have a bye this week.

Enjoy!

MaryPoppins 11-02-2013 08:14 PM

Giants have a bye week too? We were eating dinner in a local restaurant, and then Eli Manning, his family and some friends and were seated at the next table.

Before Eli was in the NFL we used to see them every Christmas Eve at their - and our - favorite restaurant in NOLA - Clancy's.
