My chapter operates similar to axotiger's. Our new members receive a Carnation sister on Bid Day and then a Mystagogue at our 1st degree. The also have an Alpha, Chi, and Omega sis, one each week. After that four weeks they get their Big sister. The mystagogue is normally a junior or senior who acts as a "temporary big". They make sure that the NM understand the history and stuff and is there to answer questions about the sisterhood and to make sure that the Alpha, Chi, and Omega sisters are doing their jobs. (Sending them gifts, eating with them, taking them to social and sisterhood events, introducing them to other sisters, etc) My mystagee my junior year ended up becoming my little and my mystagee my senior year ended up being my grandlittle. Funny how things work out!
