All the results are in, with the exception of OUtexgal and AOIIforever's little sis! Congrats to all, but be warned of spoilers!

We have a lot of people currently MIA. :( If you'd rather me delete them, let me know.

Also I'm still not sure if AllisonDG's sister is rushing.

bucutie02 08-21-2003 09:54 AM

Hey everyone!

It says that I will be COBing at the university of houston. What does that mean, what is COBing??

Is that the same thing as informal rush?

sorry its too early for me to figure out if I just forgot what that means or I really dont know. :o

KappaKittyCat 08-21-2003 10:39 AM

BUCutie, COBing is one of the technical terms for Informal Rush. It stands for Continuous Open Bidding, and it's what sororities can do throughout the term (continuous), for any women, regardless of whether they went through rush (open), provided they're under total.

So the listing is correct.

Good luck!

I'm rushing this fall at Jacksonville State University! Our rush lasts from Friday to Monday of Labor Day weekend. We have on campus five sororities:

~Zeta Tau Alpha
~Phi Mu
~Alpha Omicron Pi
~Alpha Xi Delta
~Delta Zeta

Moxie 08-22-2003 06:15 PM

hey JAM, i'm just wondering if your son is going through rush right now. i've seen the boys walking from old row a couple of times this week while i've been driving around. you better let us know if he decides to pledge =)

breathesgelatin 08-22-2003 06:22 PM

K, Y'all...

We have three bid days tomorrow: Moxie, Ames44, and Firelily0. Hooray!! :D

I have been having computer troubles... So if I'm not around, you know where I am!

breathesgelatin 08-23-2003 11:40 AM

OK, my computer is officially broken. I can only update from the library now--which is close by but I may not be able to make it to the library every day to update the thread. Therefore, if you notice changes that need to be made--don't freak! I'll get here tomorrow. :D

Can't wait to find out how everyone's bid days go! And for the 27th!

CarolinaCutie 08-23-2003 01:29 PM

I don't know what I would do without this thread! I have limited computer access right now, and it is SO nice to be able to check all the rush progress out with a glance at this thread, instead of having to pick through the individual rush stories. Breathesgelatin, you are a Godsend!

Jill1228 08-23-2003 03:29 PM

Breathesgelatin, you are falling down on the job! ;) http://www.superbabies.homestead.com/files/fish1.gif

updates updates updates!!!! library computers, don't fail us now!!! ;)

daoine 08-24-2003 10:51 AM

Hmm, we need to update:

Firelily is a AOP!
Ames44 is a DG!
Amelie03 is a DG!
Txsurfinwaves is a PBF
Moxie is torturing us by not telling us who COFFEE is.
crazyocutie should be updating us soon
RedFox should go orange for a hopeful COB

breathesgelatin 08-24-2003 09:47 PM

My update!! (tee hee!)

My boyfriend's visit was GREAT!! I spent all of Saturday and most of today with him. The computer at home is now working again, and hopefully it will stay up for the rest of the week (I move back in to college on Saturday). If I randomly disappear for a day or so, know that my computer is shaky but I will be back permanently as of Saturday! :)

I *think* I have everything updated properly now... Let me know if you see any wrong links or missing info! :)

TarHeelGirl starts rush tomorrow (GO HEELS!!!!), we're still waiting for crazyocutie's Bid Day report, and then on Wednesday is another big day...

Can you tell that someone hasn't been on GC for awhile???? Skim a page or two back in the rush forum... you'll find the HUGE thread about it. :)

breathesgelatin 08-25-2003 11:18 PM

OK!

For tomorrow we have:

twhrider starting recruitment (well, orientation!) (she is now green!

Ljk1231's, UASoph02's, and AZpinkkittie's Bid Days (tonight are their prefs (at two different schools)!)

We're still waiting on crazyocutie's Bid Day results.
Also TarHeelGirl is MIA now. :(

Butttt we do have many folks starting rush on WEDNESDAY: beachgal118, Erica07, RebelSong84, smiley21, and bethany@uwg!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL IN RECRUITMENT!

I daresay that Browneyed Girl would know that we are all waiting with baited breath - for ALL the chapters!!!!

breathesgelatin 08-27-2003 12:30 AM

:D

Newly updated!! huzzah to all the rushees starting tomorrow (technically, today!)

Edited to add:

Anyone else noted that we have 12 of the 26 NPC sororities represented now?? I wonder how far we'll get!! :)

I've been a TOTAL geek. I'm keeping track of all the NPC groups represented during each rush (we're only missing like 6 of them now) -- and then seeing where everyone goes. It's totally cool. We need someone to post with an ASA and a Theta Phi Alpha at their school...I forget who else (wish I hadn't left this list at home!)

Then I got even geekier and started looking at the percentage of GC new members went to which group.

Chi Omega shows up the most (they've been in all threads so far but 1 or 2 so far) -- but pound for pound, Sigma Kappa is whoopin' everyone's butts when it comes to getting new members! 2 people last night -- go Sigma Kappa!

I can't wait to see how it turns out....

33girl 08-27-2003 10:41 AM

well we have 3 rushees coming up at schools w/ ASA chapters, so cross your fingers. in the spirit of evening things out mathematically, of course. :)

DWAlphaGam 08-27-2003 11:34 AM

We need an Alpha Gam, too. I can think of 2 upcoming recruitment threads with Alpha Gam chapters (that I've seen), so I'm hoping we will be added to the list soon! :)

breathesgelatin 08-27-2003 01:46 PM

By my count, in order to complete the NPC (this year), we need:

Alpha Delta Pi
Alpha Epsilon Phi
Alpha Gamma Delta
Alpha Sigma Alpha
Alpha Sigma Tau
Alpha Xi Delta
Delta Phi Epsilon
Gamma Phi Beta
Kappa Alpha Theta
Phi Sigma Sigma
Sigma Delta Tau
Sigma Sigma Sigma
Theta Phi Alpha

In terms of *ever* having a PNM go somewhere... I personally don't remember ever seeing an AEPhi, ASA, AST, DPhiE, Phi Sig, SDT, or Theta Phi rush thread... But then, I've only been here a little over a year, so what do I know?

OUlioness01 08-27-2003 02:05 PM

this list looks gorgeous with all the new pretty colors as opposed to all black!

Congrats to all the orgs and ladies/gentlemen represented!

breathesgelatin 08-27-2003 11:52 PM

Good luck to triskit03 who starts rush tomorrow!!

I can't wait until our next round of bid days!

Moxie 08-28-2003 10:58 AM

since the men seem to be so underrated in the rush forum, i'd like to say that my boyfriend and one of his best friends are now ACACIA pledges at LSU. he, as in the one that belongs to me, hasn't officially signed a bid card since he didn't go through rush, but the boys are coming after him pretty hard. he seems to be enjoying the attention, PLUS his grandmother offered to pay his dues! i guess he's not positive if he's going to do it or not, but i'd say there's a fair chance - he already goes to their meetings =) i'm happy for him because this group seems to be WAY more relaxed than the group he pledged (and then depledged) last year. he's not sure if the fraternity life is for him anymore, but he's going to give it a shot. aahh, i didn't mean for this to be so long...i just mean to say YAY for acacia at LSU!

FuzzieAlum 08-28-2003 12:03 PM

OK I think I am finally caught up ... never leave GC for three weeks during fall recruitment! Thank goodness for this thread.

Congratulations to everyone who found a new home, and thank you to everyone for having the courage to share your stories with all of us!

Now I'm going to go pout because there aren't any AXD PNMs on here. :p
