Gamma Delta starts us off with Quota and our International President's daughter is one of their new members! That's got to be a good sign for a good Recruitment season for all the Alpha Gams!

I wish I could have been there when Jackie met her "soon to be sister daughter or is that daughter sister?" and her other 2 Alpha Gam daughters met their "soon to be sister sister!!

Ok so I'm not quite sure but I think Delta Rho had pref this weekend. And I believe bid day is tomorrow. Hopefully I will find out soon!

Theta Pi had bid day today. Quota was 7. Theta Pi had quota +1. This year was the first year that the campus did Quota additions. So a grand total of 8 at the moment. COB starts tomorrow and they can COB around 15 ladies.(Campus total is 50 and even after recruitment, none of the 3 chapters on campus are at total. Campus total is up for review again this spring.)

Haven't heard the final result but the Gamma Tau Property Advisor's niece was preffing Alpha Gam and another group at UNC Wilmington yesterday. Hope she's a baby squirrel by now!

ETA: Cousin is a new baby squirrel at UNC Wilmington. Their chapter got quota+ 6 for a total of 32 new members!! Awesome!!!

R--please keep me updated on how things are going for Delta Pi. You know me, I'm a basketcase this time of year!

Today is preference, then tomorrow BID DAY! I get a day off from any offical AGD action (which is going to be spent doing stuff at work) and then we're going camping and rafting. New members move into the chapter house on Bid Day so I get to be the box and suitcase schlepper tomorrow.

I knew almost all the alumnae who have been helping out, except I met someone new yesterday. A Delta Beta (our ten minute away neighbors) alumna by the name of Joyce Aamot Greene sat across from me at lunch. We talked for over an hour and I never got a plate or ate anything, ooops!

I think the most hysterical part of recruitment was our fraternity neighbors having a dance party/impromptu karaoke sing-a-long next door. Hearing a group of men singing along to the Spice Girls, Pat Benatar, Vanessa Carlton, Hall & Oates, Billy Joel, Corey Hart, James Blunt, The Dixie Cups (Going to the Chapel), and my personal favorite The Weather Girls "It's Raining Men" made the long night go by faster. My awesome dancing and using a hole punch as a microphone made it even more special. Last year they were playing Britney Spears so I guess this is how they get pumped for men's rush.

That is really cool that you have enough room for the new girls to move into the house. Oh to have room for more than 25 girls...

It is the campus standard that new members move into the house on Bid Day (classes start Monday). It is all over the recruitment materials and the Greek Life page to NOT sign a housing contract. Depending on the physical structure and membership, there can be overflow in the past to residence halls, but a lot of upper classmen move off campus into apartments. The overflow has an added bonus of being a way to COR/COB your dorm mates. However if a woman is not placed there are rooms set aside by the University if they want to live on campus. I still don't know how all the chapters figure out in the spring how many beds/rooms they need as quota won't be set until tonight, but that is why overflow happens.

I'm sure I will be taking new members to the BIG Walmart in Lewiston to get things as our rinky dink one will be sold out between our students and Wazzu. Everything the women brought to college is with them in their temporary recruitment dorm room and we'll put it in a UHaul and bring it to the house.

It is now 6 am, and I just got back from taking the LC to the airport in Spokane. I've been up almost 24 hours so I am trying to decide if I should sleep for a couple hours or just stay awake. The new members open their bid cards at 10, and I'll have more info after that between the UHaul extravaganza and going to work.
