Our bid days the same day as pref parties. You pref in the am, extremely early. Then we're confined to our house for the remainder of the day and we regroup, mostly from naps, around four and decorate the house and get the presents ready for the new members.
Then all of our sororities travel to the back of the student union and it's a good hour of chanting outside by the chapters and what not while inside the rho gammas are reveavled to the girls and bids are announced. Then the deaffialated members of each chapter, aka rho gammas and panhel exec, lead their girls out running to meet the chapter. It's amazing that no ones ever fallen since you run down two flights of steps.
Lots more chanting and hugs, tears and presents to pnm. Then slowly each chapter departs and heads back to the village chanting and does a lap around the village when they get there.
All of the fraturnity boys pull couches in front of their houses and watch us all run by. They call it "the beaver run." That's the only part that sucks, I wish they'd call it something classier.
