The 2006 Carnation Rush Thread

[AUAZD2001]

One of my chpater sisters mother was a colony member of another sorority on Auburn's campus, and her sister was either in the chapter, or JUST graduated. And she got cut from that sorority pretty early in the week. She found out when se went to accept invitations, and her mother only found out when she got a chance to call her and tell her. The mother was livid (I would be too) and called the chapter advisor. The advisor swore that there must have been a mistake made and out the blame on Panhellenic. But she continued with recruitment and found a home in Alpha Xi Delta. Things couldn't have worked out better for her. She went on to be Recording Secretary and Financial VP, and she is now an advisor on another campus.

Auburn's chapter was used to this since her first two daughters went through recruitment when the IP was the International Vice President Collegians. She encouraged all of her daughters to be open and consider all of the sororities, but I know she is thrilled that they are all Alpha Gams.
By the time you hold a position like that, you are even more Panhellenically minded, I think.

Word is that 918 recieved bids. Not sure if that is how many received or how many accepted....and they started with 1184 (may be off 1-2 girls up or down). So approx 78% were placed.

My friend's daughter received a bid from KKG at Auburn. I don't know any other info because I have not talked to them yet.

Yeah for your friend's daughter! They had 61 girls yesterday - held a beautiful reception in the afternoon and then the girls went out to dinner with their "sister for the day" and other pairs of new pledges and sisters; then back to the chapter room for a "spend the night" party. Looked like a really cute group of girls. Seemed to be a fair mix of in and out of state girls...that will make for a strong group. Haven't heard yet how many legacies accepted bids.
