You can't tell, but she is full of happy tears standing in front of the bid day banner at Pi Phi. Makes me so thankful.

nolefan, you are too kind! I am so glad that JB found her perfect home away from home.
I have visited Ole Miss 5 out of the past 6 years as a national officer. I have also been at Alabama, Auburn, Tennessee, and LSU during that time frame and have found Ole Miss to be extremely welcoming to all PNMs. I think the tent talk happens on all campuses, not matter how competitive.
All of these campuses have made great progress at pledging quota for most if not all groups for the past 5 years, and "mass exits of PNMs" is greatly over-exaggerated. The loudest of tent talkers are ones who have their minds made up that only one or two of the 10-18 groups are worthy to pledge.
Indiana and Penn State have 25+% of PNMs either drop out or not be pledged. To me, that is a bigger issue than 100 of 1700 at Ole Miss being released or dropping out for whatever reason.
