I was 16 when I pledged ADPi, and I received the dreaded, "You didn't get a bid" call on Bid Night. Actually, neither ADPi nor Kappa had realized that I was under 18, and they required parental consent for me to pledge. Granted, it was back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, and things could be different now. Also, Pennsylvania has some freaky laws.

It was somewhat funny at the time. I was commuting at the time, and my mother had answered the phone. She talked to the Greek Advisor, assured her that she & my daddy would sign off on any necessary papers, then demanded, "Did Honey get a bid or not?!" (*Cringe!*) Obviously, I had, but they didn't tell me to which sorority until I went back to campus to get my bid with the other PNMs.
