BIG-TIME GLITCHES REPORTED AT U of CALIFORNIA - SAN DIEGO

Whoah. Sounds like major glitches at the University of California – San Diego (UCSD). The school paper reports that the Greek Life adviser ‘fessed up to fouling up some things involving upperclass PNMs, but there are still reportedly questions about other “glitches” and whether or not problems were appropriately rectified:

Excerpts from much longer article:
Two weeks after sorority recruitment, questions still linger about computer glitches, "misbids" and the resignation of Panhellenic Council President Megan Christopher that followed shortly after. . . .

The largest question involved women receiving “misbids,” or acceptances into the wrong sororities — a situation that affected 40 to 50 girls and impacted every sorority, Revelle College senior and Alpha Chi Omega member Rachel Corell said. . . .

Yikes. I think that's a bit more than "computer error".

WOW.

I joke around about being a computer glitch bid, but man...that situation at UCSD sounds like a mess.

All that happened to me was one of the chapters who invited me back never showed up on my list of parties for the next day. I immediately told my rho chi about it because I had to accept all the invites I was given for the day.

When I was bidless at the end of the week, guess who called? The chapter that got dropped in the conputer system. I guess it all worked out in the end, huh? I just hope everything goes OK for those UCSD girls.
