do you know how many interviewed? how many invites to pref?

are you involved in this (re)colonization) process?

I'm so excited about this, and waiting along with the rest of the readers of this thread for any news about the colony...I'm actually excited/happy about all the colonizations going on, however DG has always been one of my personal "favorites" because of the influence of the DG member I idolized when I was a child, growing up. That isn't a secret; I've written about it before and have told many people. I'm a member of a GLO because of her influence. Not playing favorites, just saying "Delta Gamma - yeah!"

And Alabama - holy COW - this is a Big Deal in many ways. OK, I'll go back and sit on the sofa now. After I go upload a photo to Badge Trends, that is.

Son received the following email yesterday at Bama,

Dear ABC,

On behalf of the Alabama Panhellenic Association, I want to invite you to come celebrate the colonization of Alabama's newest sorority, Delta Gamma. For the last two years, Delta Gamma has been planning their return to the Capstone. For the last two weeks, they have met with hundreds of interested students about Delta Gamma membership. They will host their preference parties on Saturday evening and on Sunday morning, DG will officially become part of our Panhellenic Community as the celebrate their Bid Day.

Delta Gamma Bid Day will happen at 10:00 am this Sunday morning, August 28th at the Walk of Champions in front of Bryant-Denny Stadium. I want to encourage our entire Greek community to become part of this historic event. Our support of this new chapter will be an important part of their success, and I hope you can join us in welcoming them to the University of Alabama.

Roll Tide,
Ashley Getwan, President
Alabama Panhellenic Association

With that punctuation and capitalization?

let's hope not.

I'm so excited for all the young women who will become a part of Bama greeks tomorrow!

I'm sure the errors are mine. My computer has a virus and I am typing on my iPad...I thought I had noted this when I went in and edited some errors. I had to type out the email due to me not knowing how to copy and paste on iPad. I would type five or six words and then go back to the email, read more and back to GC to type some more...I have tried to go back and correct my mistakes...I'm sorry I shared as my errors should be no reflection on UA and Ashley Getwan.

that makes sense. i get all kinds of weird capital letters when i am texting. the phone "fixes" things for me that don't need fixing! : )

I hope someone posts photo's or a video of Delta Gamma bid day. I love how we of different GLO's are so excited about all the colonizations going on across the country.
Panhellenic sisterhood!!!!

Let's just say in the neighborhood of 500 signed up for interviews. Beyond that, anything else would be privateMS information. We're very excited for tomorrow. Beta Psi chapter alums have been waiting a long time for this day!

do you happen to know if all girls invited to pref will be offered bids? isn't that the way it works during formal (a GLO has to be willing to bid a girl who is invited to its pref party)? or is it different for a colonization. i have no idea. : )

Yes, I know the answer. Yes. Yes.

so is the answer "yes" they will all get bids?

or is it "yes" you know the answer and "yes" it is different for colonization...

are you there and part of the process? if so, how exciting!

It was very charming when Alpha Phi turned their colonization pref into the bid party. The pictures were adorable. If DG is inviting other community members to bid day, then I guess they've come up with a different sort of surprise.

that would be a fun surprise!
