OU Bid Day
 

Just heard Alpha Phi took quota of 61 + 4

GO Aphi! Congrads to Phi Chapter.

Yayyyy great news!!!

YAAAAY!!! I wrote a rec for a girl at OU, I wonder where she ended up pledging.

Any links to a bid list?

eta - Just got the news that a Katy girl went Gamma Phi!

any word about how theta did?

Isn't a quota of 61 really low for OU? I was thinking our chapter there took something like 89 girls last year.

I heard AOII made quota plus for 64. So quota was 61 this year....maybe overall numbers were just down this year?

The numbers were down this year according to the student paper - about 150 less girls registered for recruitment. But about 85% of those registered received bids. My daughter is a Gamma Phi but was excused from recruitment because she is taking 6 hours of intersession classes. She said they were very happy with the the group of girls they got this year but didn't know the number. I will try to find out this weekend.

I bet there will be a few fights over who gets a little sis!

The only example I have is from one of the big Texas schools. Pnm has an older sister who is a chapter president and mom is a member of the same group. Big sis says bring a book to read during recruitment because you may get cut because of me. Still, she ended up with a full slate pref parties and little down time.
Who knows if your girl didn't choose wisely or the other groups thought she was going elsewehre.

I got an email back from her mom, the girl withdrew when she still had invites left. In fact she had a full schedule, but I guess it wasn't the schedule the PNM wanted.
