I'm told that the girls can go out and drink and everything. Rushees can go out as well but they have to be super careful what they do.

I know our girls voted to wear badge attire to the game to avoid any infractions. I guess they made some special rules about game day attire, but the members are freaked out that they might misinterpret them so they are going the safe route.

The tradition is to dress up for the games, so badge attire would make quite a bit of sense, I think.

She's keeping the course and hasn't been cut by anymore houses thankfully.
I told her that had she been a freshman she would have had her pick of the litter for sure. When I told my girls in the houses to look out for her they just went "A sophomore?" Hard to sway that mentality, for sure.

I'm new to this thread
My kid is going through this process. Nervewracking for Mom's and Dad's. Here's the deal, mine was only invited back to 1 for a house tour. Will she automatically get a bid from them? Will they still possibly cut her tomorrow? If you make it this far can it still be over? I thought all who wanted to pledge would be given a bid?

No, all who want to pledge are NOT guaranteed a bid. There has been some discussion that Arkansas may be implementing a guaranteed bid program, but even if they have done so, it would only guarantee a bid to a PNM who attends at least one preference party. So, if your daughter is cut by all chapters before preference there would be no bid. I'm sure that sounds very scary and negative, but keep in mind that no PNM can receive more than one bid, so as long as she has even one on her invitation list, she is in the game.
