It depends on the Chapter in question. Each member you contact should know. By the way, I sent you a private message.

MaryPoppins: Have you received any of my messages yet? I obviously have no idea what I'm doing because I tried to reply three times and it is not sending.

BTW the active in question is a Theta!

Please come back and let us know how it all works out. LSU rush is competitive but I don't think it is as bad as some of the other SEC schools. Every chapter is great so don't listen to all the talk that you will hear. I have watched my daughter and her friends in other sororities for the past four years and I can honestly tell you that you will be happy in any of the chapters there.

LSU Bid Day question

Do moms ever come to LSU on Bid Day? My friend was asking as her daughter is going through this week (but she's from OOS) and I did not know but I know many moms who show up at Alabama and Ole Miss and quite a few Texas schools and are welcomed. Thanks!

Yes mothers and fathers are welcome but there are plenty of patents who don't come so she should be fine either way. And honestly not much for families other than watching them run to the houses and maybe a quick reception at the house. After that they always take the pledges simewhere else for a little party. An alums house is usually where they go. I don't think I would have gone if I was out of state.

I'm looking forward to LSU updates because I have a rec girl going through. This is my first non-UGA rec so I'm eager to keep up with her progress.

Well my friend and her hubby are LSU alums and have family nearby. Plus he has his own plane. So getting there is very doable for them. She just did not want to do anything wrong and had heard moms don't go. BUT she is eager to be there for a brief glimpse as long as I get the "go ahead" from my experts on greekchat. She is not Greek, btw. So is it a "yes"?

I would say yes, I went to my daughters bid day and helped t a few during the years. I can't speak for the others but Phi Mu always welcomed parents in the house and There were plenty walking around on the row so I am sure all the houses are the same. Let us know where she pledged. I am dying to hear anything about it this year. My daughter is an alum now and I don't know any local girls who are there.

UhDeeGee, I asked my friend about her but she hadn't talked to her mother. She promised me she would today!!!! You might have wrote a rec for the daughter of the principal of the school she works at, sound familiar?

Yes! She emailed me and I sent her through our local alumnae Panhellenic. She submitted her packets after the deadline, but I think she will still be covered with recs for all the houses.
