Quota was 91! AOII got 93! From what I've heard all of the houses made quota plus additions! Get excited! Lots of new members on campus!!!!
ETA: I wrote down my figures wrong...sorry that's what being sick does to you!

I come from UF, where quota is usually in the 50s-60s, and I can't even imagine a new member class half again as large as ours! What on earth do you do with 92 new members? How do you learn their names? You ladies at Ole Miss have my respect - I'm not sure I could do it!

Good job, Rebels! That's about a 93% placement rate (not counting quota additions)--fantastic!

Excellent point, MSKKG! Have things happened over the years to reduce the number / percent of dropouts? Wasn't there a time when -- at least in legend -- a good many Ole Miss PNMs would withdraw if they weren't invited back to ABC, DEF, or XYZ? (Whatever those might be for a given PNM.)

That's at least one reason why Ole Miss rush was moved from at the beginning of the semester to when it is.

Great news for all the chapers at Ole Miss!
When I was membership chair, my advisor was a recent Ole Miss graduate, and it was her first advising experience. Within five minutes of meeting her, she asked me "So, how is rush at Emory? At Ole Miss, girls dropped out of school if they didn't get into a sorority. I'm guessing it's not like that here?" This was 20 (yikes!) years ago, so yes there was a time that this happened.

I had the same thought, and to think it is soooo hard to get a bid at Ole Miss  There must have not been any Northern Girls participating in recruitment!!!! Opps...

Ole Miss Bid Day Pictures on Student Paper Web Site
The Daily Mississippian Online ('dmonline') has a slide show of some Bid Day pics, FWIW (provided your setup will let you view a slide show).

If I recall my visit correctly, the houses they DID depict are all in a row on one side of the street, so it's understandable that a photographer would snap them all. Maybe the light was better facing that way. 
There was one very cute pic that appeared to be of a legacy and her mom rushing to their house. That's an "awww!" moment. Anyway, I visited on a Sunday morning in the dead of winter, so it's fun to see pictures of the campus come to life.
