My niece pledged a sorority
 
Wow, I actually have a relative that I know that will go Greek too. My mom told me one of my nieces pledged this fall, but didn't know which sorority. I have three guesses where I think she would join, but I could be wrong. I'll update when I find out and it's over, but won't give name or school.

Anyway, I just thought that was really cool.

FSUZeta 10-16-2006 06:28 PM

congratulations jon!! be sure to let us know what chapter she pledged.

honeychile 10-16-2006 09:08 PM

Has anyone ever told you that you're a bit of a tease? ;)

Congratulations to your niece!

AXi1257 10-17-2006 09:10 PM

A tease indeed!! I can't wait to hear!

It sounds very cool! Let us know!! Hope she is having a great time...:)

JonInKC 10-18-2006 12:29 AM

And one of you that replied is a member of one of the organizations on that campus that i predict she'll join. But I won't tell you which one... ;)

BadSquirrelBeta 10-18-2006 01:15 AM

UUUGHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SigKapSweetie 10-18-2006 09:37 AM

Come on! Inquiring minds want to know! :D

aopirose 10-18-2006 09:43 AM

Well Jon did narrow it down to 3 groups so that's a little something. VERY LITTLE I might add.

4 groups...if you look at the posters above it is: ADPi, AXD, AGD, and SK.

And Jon...your posts are kind of confusing...if your niece is 'pledging' she already joined a sorority--so why are you 'predicting' which one she'll join? Has she already joined, or is she in the process of rushing?

Drolefille 10-18-2006 11:41 AM

A SK didn't post before he made that comment... ZTA would be the fourth

tunatartare 10-18-2006 11:42 AM

Ok really why start a thread for your neice if you aren't going to tell people what sorority she joined? That's kinda pointless.

honeychile 10-18-2006 01:41 PM

So we know that said niece will be wearing an Alpha!

Actually all he said is that ONE of the posters is in ONE of the 3 groups he thinks she joined. Which means there are two other groups that she may have joined that weren't represented in those posters. So there's still a big field of prospective groups.

But Jon, you are a HUGE tease.:p

Ocalagirl 10-18-2006 05:17 PM

yeah i'm really wondering about this thread:)

I do not know why you wonder?

Why would he want to tell people and they become ass hats?:o


When did so many become so prominent about who joins who? Well except a few?

OK I meant it in the way that I am wondering why he won't post the results. Why make a post and not tell the ending when it has already happened? I could understand if she was currently participating in recruitment, but from my understanding in reading this thread this young woman has been through rush and her uncle is just not sure what NPC GLO she is in. I am happy for this young woman wherever she goes no matter what GLO she went to because I think they are all wonderful!! I just want to know the results to congratulate her.

Thank you and Amen to that!

Drolefille, I could use a translator over here...

As soon as he tells you crazies you'll all become jerks. No, not just jerks. Hats. Special hats. Ones you wear on your ass. *I'm embarassed because I said ass*

Why do you crazies care so much about which sorority this girl has joined? Except a few of you, you're ok, but the rest of you are women and crazy. I mean, it's not like this thread was created with the purpose of saying that Susie-inKC- joined/may join a sorority. Why would you want to know more?

GDIfly 10-18-2006 08:28 PM

You should do this professionally.

Still wondering about the usage of "prominent" though...

SigKapSweetie 10-18-2006 08:28 PM

Excellent translation! Have you considered quitting your day job and translating full-time?

It's an Earp-ism. Meaning that it is used in place of a completely different word, just to throw you off the track.

Hah, I wish. But I could give you my PayPal account if you'd like to donate :p

That depends; do you translate Patientspeak? It would help me avoid exchanges like this one:
"Why did you bring your son to the ER?"
"He don't look right."
"I can see that he's funny-looking, ma'am. That wasn't my question."

Bwah ha ha. I understand it, but it's WAY more fun to take it literally. I could translate via text though... :p

JonInKC 10-18-2006 11:53 PM

SmartBlonde knows the score. For that, she wins a neat-looking phone that looks like a football. I saw it on Nick Arcade (What a hoot that show is, lol).

Also, I don't even know which organization she's joining...that's why I can't tell you! ;)

For the last three years I have been regularly searching for glowing pieces of the GUTS Aggro-Crag on Ebay. I figure ONE of the dozens of kids who won that show is hard up for cash. No dice.

JonInKC 10-19-2006 10:59 PM

Alrighty then...these are the 6 NPC orgs on her campus:

Alpha Delta Pi
Alpha Sigma Alpha
Alpha Chi Omega
Delta Zeta
Sigma Kappa
Sigma Sigma Sigma

The ones in bold were among the three orgs I predicted she would join. None of my guesses were correct, but she joined a great chapter anyway! All six chapters have NICE houses and awesome women and I'm really happy for her. I know that probably came across as cheesy, but it's true.

By the way, she is now a member of ASA.

Well, alrighty then! Let me be the first to say GREAT NEWS TO HEAR ALPHA SIGMA ALPHA extended a bid to your niece!! :) I hope she has a great sorority experience!!! Also, there is nothing cheesy about anything you said. I am sure you rate some major coolness points with your niece as the "Cool Uncle"!! Thanks for doing this thread! It was fun!!;)

AXi1257 10-19-2006 11:24 PM

Congrats to your neice!

honeychile 10-19-2006 11:30 PM

Congratulations to your niece, Jon!

epchick 10-19-2006 11:46 PM

AlphaFrog 10-20-2006 07:24 AM

HAHA...YOU WERE ALL WRONG AND WE GOT HER!!!!

This is weird...I've been on GC for almost 4 YEARS and we've never gotten PNMs who've started threads/had threads started for them...and this year we got TWO!!

YAY FOR ASA!!!!

FSUZeta 10-20-2006 07:30 AM

My little sister just joined ASA at Drexel (she's the other PNM that AlphaFrog was referring too. :))

SigKapSweetie 10-20-2006 10:53 AM

Rub it in! Rub it in! :p And here I thought AGD was in the running since Jon said it was one of the 3 or whatever groups that had posted... And Alpha Gam wasn't even on the campus...LOL...That's ok!

It is very cool no matter what when you read a thread and see that a PNM has chosen your soroity, so Alpha Frog and our other ASA friends enjoy! :)
