that was kinda creppy how yor Rho Chi waited for you by your door to give you a bid - very stalker-like. complete with the "call us if you have questions" deal.

help me make sense of this.

My name was on the COB list, so that was supposed to indicate to the chapters that I'd still be interested in joining a sorority. I guess the groups I received bids from felt that they had learned enough about me during rush to indicate that I was a good candidate to receive a bid.

I think with my Rho Chi, the situation was this - chapters couldn't start COBing until 6 pm that day. So, any chapter that decided to COB hurried up to get bids out there to anyone they were really interested in. She would likely have witnessed the other groups dropping off bids (I came back to my room not too long after 6 pm, which was the earliest they would have been allowed to contact me). Given that I still didn't know at that point what houses my Rho Chis were in, she probably wanted me to be aware that one of the groups I was getting a bid from was hers.

(My other Rho Chi, I learned much later, was a member of Nelson Muntz.)
