Just a visual idea of the numbers of PNMs and sorority members at Ole Miss. This is from this year's C.A.R.E. Walk.
C.A.R.E. Walk is Ole Miss Panhellenic's annual philanthropy benefiting breast cancer research.

If the school's Panhellenic really told a chapter that, they need to contact their national headquarters immediately. Panhel (local or national) cannot tell you who to take or not take, invite or not invite.
They could say "it would be nice" but it would never hold up. Being Panhellenic is great but some people think it can override sororities' individual rights/policies and that just isn't the case.

I bet she misunderstood or is misremembering what actually happened. Why would panhellenic care at all about where you place a legacy on your bid list? All they have to care about is the number of girls you put on that list. And if they really did tell a chapter that, I'd be on the horn with your headquarters IMMEDIATELY because there's someone in panhel who has way WAY overstepped her bounds. I mean, for all we know, a sorority may ALWAYS rank blonds over brunettes and legacy status doesn't trump that. Or lefties are always more desired. And it's not our place to tell them that's retarded.

Any news (of the vague-ish variety, anyway) from Ole Miss recruitment? I think today is pref.
I'm sure those involved don't want to post anything too specific, but I was just wondering.

Yes, today is Pref. Houses are having 5 parties. I believe that the PNMs can go to a max of 3 chapters. Bid Day is tomorrow.

Pref parties start at 4pm CST, so I would think invitations would be opened between 3 and 3:30. PNMs are usually assembling on the lawn of their first house about half an hour before parties start.
Good luck everyone!
Bid Day at 3pm tomorow.

I know several girls participating in recruitment this week at Ole Miss. I can hardly wait to see where they land! Hope they are enjoying the week. It can be so stressful!

I met some absolutely awesome ADPi national officers, local volunteers, and a senior chapter consultant who were on campus observing recruitment at Ole Miss. They were delightful! They had also visited Miss State for recruitment and are laying the way for 2 colonizations in 2013 in our state...don't think it has ever been done before. I hope that Phi Mu will take the lead in hosting our fellow Magnolia Madams as they establish successful colonies in our state!
Just my opinion

List is not out just yet as far as I know, but will be soon unless there is a delay (every other or so I understand.) Headed to the house to prep everything. PNMs get their Bid Envelopes at 3:00!!!!
