I do love that rush is done like this now... picking the top 6 but being able to rank the bottom 3 ranking after skit round , and picking top 3 but being able to rank bottom three.

Back in my day, getting cut out was such a greater likelihood... and mis-matching was such a problem.

Just knowing that IF she went to three houses for Pref and IF she ranked all three that she was guaranteed a bid at one of the three (at least that's what she was told) was such a relief to her. I think it really helped her relax.

^^^Interesting. Have they had a large scale spring recruitment like this before? Are all chapters participating?

Ole Miss Spring 2012

Spring informal recruitment has been happening at Ole Miss since at least 1990 if not before. Any group that is not at house total (299) and did not fill Fall Quota may participate. A potential new member would need to contact Greek Life to find out which Ole Miss Chapters are participating.

While Ole Miss allows PNM's to participate in Recruitment with a 2.5 GPA, most Chapters won't ever accept anything less than a 3.0 from a New Member. For women that were cut early, due to grades etc. and that had a successful Fall academic semester, or other women who felt they were overlooked in the 1,240 PNM's in Recruitment, this is a great opportunity for the Greek experience.

Good grief - total is 299 - I've been howling about total of 200 at Arizona. I need to go hang with the people in MISSISSIPPI and get my attitude adjusted, apparently. Obviously, actually.

Looking at these total numbers are amazing to me. In my day--- before Edison invented the light bulb--- our campus raised cap on house total to 65! When I pledged there were 24 collegians and 14 pledges.
