I'll be interested how many pledged. There were 1978 registered. No clue how many started. Someone on this topic posted that 2 houses have 130 pledges. With numbers like that, they can't have lost too many to dropping out.

And congrats to my fellow moms/aunts! A Zeta, a Theta, a Kappa and....come on, WalkintheWoods' daughter! Don't keep us in suspense!

Sorry for the delay! I've been texting all my friends like crazy. I'm very happy to say that my daughter is a Kappa Alpha Theta! So how fun that two of our own are in the same house! I happened to be a Theta at Mizzou too so, that adds another element of specialness for me. I was of course wanting her to be happy and trusting that she had her own journey to make--and I'm delighted. Big congratulations to the new members/pledges and to their moms and aunts!! And to the wonderful chapter houses that will be welcoming these wonderful girls.

How fun!!! NUalumMUmom my daughter is a Theta too! I was a Theta at Mizzou as well.

Oh my gosh how funny that she texted you that with 10 minutes in between! You must have been so frustrated! Hilarious now that you know!

AZTheta 08-24-2014 03:19 PM

YES! Congratulations. And I'm going to PM you! I know a Mizzou Theta and you might have been there at the same time. Just let me remember her name first.

I have it from a reliable source that quota was 90 at Mizzouri.

130 sounds more like what I have heard from Arkansas....

Yay!!!

I think that the excitement yet coolness and graciousness which all the moms have shown on this thread goes a long way toward explaining why their daughters are sorority material. :)

Can't wait to hear from everyone else.

I always get nostalgic this time of year....Mizzou + recruitment + back to school. (44 years ago for me.)

Yes, congratulations and hope we get even more good news soon!

Congrats to all the girls and Moms! Maybe WalkintheWoods and I can connect on Family Weekend!

Hooray for a new Kappa, two new Thetas, and a Zeta!

Congratulations to your girls, NUalumMUmom, SunflowerState, WalkintheWoods and NorthernMom! As classy as you ladies have been on this board all week long, I am certain those chapters got some classy young women who will be assets to their respective GLOs.

NorthernMom, since your daughter is now my sister, I can probably give you some gift ideas for birthdays, etc. I've had lots of practice shopping for turquoise blue and steel gray items, along with five-point crowns, strawberries and white violets! Sending some Zeta love in your daughter's direction!

Congrats all you MIZZOU moms and daughters! Two Thetas, a Zeta and a Kappa! Sunflower state, my daughter is a Kappa too! They will be spending the day together! She will LOVE Kappa! I'm sure they will all love their sororities. Now you can all relax and get some sleep tonight...zZzZzZ

You are completely correct, my bad!! That is what I get for trying to watch my son play football and looking through Instagram! Thanks for the clarification!

Congrats to all you moms/aunts. :) It was great reading about your daughters/niece's successful recruitment stories! I hope I'm as lucky as them when I go through recruitment in the coming weeks.
