Gotta hope that Grand Baroque is ADPi - or Eloquence. I was completely torn, and my mother's was discontinued.

Great idea to use sterling patterns for chapters! My younger sister (not Greek) got my mother's set of Grande Baroque because she got married first. Sigh - I wanted it.

finished with day one of open house

I just spoke with my daughter, and she said she is having a great time! She is worn out after visiting eight chapters today. Fortunately, she has just six events tomorrow, so there is more break time built in. The sororities host 20 open house events over two days, and the PMs attend 14 events spread out over those two days. Here are her first impressions - some of the information is from our phone conversation, and some is from text messages she sent me throughout the day.

Acorn - connected with the girl who walked her in as they are both runners, also met a couple of other girls
Buttercup - talked about choir with one girl but otherwise she said the conversations with other girls were kind of generic
Candlelight - she sent me a text right after this party saying she "love love loved" Candlelight (then texted me three minutes later and said "did I mention I LOVE Candlelight?") - had a conversation with a girl she played soccer against in high school, said she felt like she really bonded with each girl she talked with
Old Master - she spilled water all over her leg at this chapter and said it was embarrassing, talked with three different girls
Burgundy - talked with the same girl the whole time, said they kind of ran out of stuff to talk about and she was kind of the one keeping the conversation going
Fairfax - described them as super nice and easy to talk to, spoke with five different girls and said that the president and vice president made a point of meeting her
Francis I - very friendly, saw a girl she knew but didn't get to talk with her, did get to meet several other girls
Grande Baroque - talked with the same girl the whole time, and said they bonded instantly (over a television show they are both "obsessed" with)

The chapters she felt the strongest connection with were:
Candlelight
Fairfax
Grande Baroque
Acorn

Tomorrow, she gets to visit her other legacy chapter, Repousse, and see her friends in Rose Point. She will also visit Chantilly, Eloquence, Strasbourg, and Chrysanthemum.
