Bid Day is today at 5pm and I hope that all of the girls in my rec group get the house they wanted. Of the 6 girls rushing, 5 of them attending 3 pref parties and 1 of them attended 2 pref parties. One of the girls suicided and I hope she gets a bid at that house. I am not sure what time she would be notified if she did not receive a bid, but it is after 1 pm and so far no dreaded phone call.
Rush at any school is stressful, but it has become more and more competitive each year. Gone are the days of being a "shoe in" if you were a legacy. Your best bet is to have friends and connections on the inside of each house that will pull for you. We as alums can only do so much, the choice is ultimately up to the current members of that chapter to choose their new sisters.
Good Luck to all the new PNM's and their weary families today! I hope they all "squeal" with joy!
