well, i was before the advent of a t-shirt for every event in the chapters life-we had our letter jerseys, maybe a letter sweatshirt or a letter baseball-type t-shirt. we wore those AFTER class.

i truly cannot remember anyone showing up for recruitment inappropriately dressed. i guess that all the rushees had gotten the memo.

honey and carnation-i love those lyrics-we all thought we were so cool, and now i feel like we were so hokey!!

"life is a cabaret, ol'chum, when you're in z-t-a!"

Oh my gawd! LOL! Here was our version of cabert:

"What good is sitting alone in your room
We welcome you to stay
Where the world's at your fingertips
Welcome to ZTA

You're someone special, get rid of your gloom
Life's great in every way
When you've got help to be your best
Be it with ZTA

We're here to lend a helping hand
You're one of us start celebrating
Right this way, you're pledge pin's waiting

Don't let your great expectations of doom
Whittle your life away
Stay where the joys of life abound
Stay where the chance to live is found--
Stay here-- With ZTA!"

now.. you want hokey... did you sing the Zip-eed-do-dah song?

Zeta Tau Alpha, Hip hip hoorey
My oh my what a fine place to stay
Most of the rushees al lcome our way
Zeta Tau Alpha, the blue and the grey

Listen closely and we'll tell you
It's the truth, it's actual, Zeta's really satisfactual
So listen up girls
Here's what we say
Come on and be a Zeta today!

We did "Kapparet" either my junior or senior year or both. It was a fun skit.

AIEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! I knew it would happen! Auburn rush starts in 9 days and this morning I got a call telling me that this precious, precious girl we know is going to Auburn and her mom thought that "get a rec" meant getting 1 sorority member to recommend you to the whole Greek system. I now have *less than a week* to get recs for everyone except Phi Mu, the only one she's gotten.

I'll do my best--she's the kind anyone would be proud to see in their letters--but @@##!!! I hope she hasn't already been pre-cut for lack of a rec.

Normally, yes, but 4 of the girls are out of town and we're chasing down another Chi O as I speak because it takes 2 Chi O signatures on a rec and Ballerina is in Athens. So is our Zeta. So are our AOIIS but 3 of our nieces are AOIIs so I'm gonna run down the street with this--they've known the girl all their lives.

I've called women from several sororities since I wrote this and of course, got all answering machines since this is the week before school starts. I don't *believe* this! This happens every year!

How dare they take vacation/be out of town when they are most needed!? Believe it or not, we hear that regarding swim team families who don't stay home in July.
