How does your school do bid day?

[AOII Angel]

I really loved the way my campus did bid day. We didn't have houses, but each of the four sororities had half of a wing in the sorority dorm. The dorm was set up with a central foyer with a wing on each side. AOII had the bottom right hand wing, Phi Mu had the bottom left. Kappa Delta was on the top left and Sigma Kappa on the top right. Ms. Gilmore (our NPC advisor) put blackout paper on the windows to the foyer. At the appointed time, after girls with no bids had been notified, each Rho Chi would escort her group from the dorm housing the rushees over to the sorority dorm. The PNMs would wait outside until their turn. You'd meet privately with Ms. Gilmore, who would give you your bid. This allowed you a chance to be counseled if you were upset by your bid. If you refused to accept the bid, you could exit through the back without being seen. Once you accepted your bid, you would run down your respective hallway (which worked best for the girls going to AOII or Phi Mu since for KD and SK you'd have to go outside to get to the stairs.) All of the sisters would be in the hallway singing chants as you came down the hall. It was very nice to have a personal welcome to the chapter. This of course took a long time, though. My senior year we had quota of 36 so it took a long time to get through that many girls.
