1. Actives picked up pledges at their dorms. Can you imagine all the girls who found out that they didn't get into a house having to endure the chanting and screaming in the hallways of their dorms? This ended my Junior or Senior year at which time pledges were picked up by a University bus.
2. While the pledges were out celebrating, a team of sisters went back to their dorm and decorated their doors.
3. The evening started at the chapter house with pizza and soda and ice-breaker events. I remember standing on my chair and telling everyone something "interesting" about myself. Examples of these "interesting" things were: "My favorite ice cream is 'rocky road'" or "I can touch my tongue to my nose"--stuff like that. I remember we were all so excited that the energy in the room was out of control!

We did all these things in the early to mid 2000s at my school... What's supposed to be "frills" about #3?
