I do not know all the rules but my daughter is aware of two girls approached yesterday by the same house about accepting a bid to a house and they did. Are these consider snap bids? If it's not, I thought informal rush was not beginning until after the new colonization.

For those who have no compassion for girls who didn't maximize their bids or withdrew because they didn't play according to the rules, please note that it doesn't seem all the chapters are either.

It may happen all over but at IU the competition is fierce enough among the girls meeting grade standards, going through formal rush and playing by the rules.
Yes those are snap bids. Does your daughter know if those two girls attended pref at that house?

Contrary to what has been posted regarding snap bids-- last year there was a requirement that snap bids only go to women that attended preference ( at least for the first week or two following recruitment). The was set by Panhellenic.
