nolefan's daughter ended up in Pi Phi. She is in her dream world. I took pictures and videos for her mama since she couldn't get there. We were texting all afternoon ... heheh! I will leave it to her discretion as to any photos she wants to post.

There were A LOT of very happy girls. When they took off running for their houses, I nearly got trampled!

Yay for a Pi Phi Angel!

So excited to hear about a new Pi Phi angel! I know about a dozen girls participating in recruitment and have seen pics of 2 Tri-Delts and 2 KDs so far. I'm sure it has been a super exciting day!

Thank you, FSUZeta and OldOleMiss. Fortunately, I live in Oxford and teach at Ole Miss. I was able to meet nolefan's daughter in August when my church had a back-to-school luncheon. I was able to introduce her to a DG who sings in the choir with me. When I found out mom was NOT coming, I decided to start a trend and stand in for her. I've been at bid day at Alabama with my own daughters, along with bid day here at Ole Miss, so I know first hand that it is a party on steroids ... and I would not have been able to live with myself if I let either of them let the day pass without some photos and video.

Hotty Toddy!

Quota and numbers??

Does anyone know what quota was and how many each chapter took? 142 seems low compared to what they were expecting.

My report said that all but Kappa Alpha Theta got quota+. Theta matched 120.

ADPi had a strong recruitment, IMO. I am sure that their fabulous new house was a bonus. It was their second formal recruitment after their re-colonization.

I know some PMNs dropped out after second and third rounds to rush for Alpha Phi. More than 50% of PNMs at Ole Miss are from out of state...from areas where Alpha Phi is very strong and has name recognition.

LK, you are fabulous and so sweet. I hope one day we recolonize there. Even my Yankee husband is fascinated with Ole Miss. Lol

My daughter is the blond on the left. She and a very good friend on her hall both received bids to Pi Phi and are just over the moon. She said the other sorority where she preffed was wonderful and of course she would have been happy there but Pi Phi was where she just felt most comfortable in the end and I hope she will have a lifetime of wonderful friendships there.


Thank you Loyally Kappa, these photos mean the world to me... you are a treasure.








Here she is with the sister who worked very hard all week to make my daughter feel welcome. She made sure my daughter met her roommate and her big sister and went out of her way to speak to her at every party. All that effort and thoughtfulness had a big impact on her week.
