Retro Recruitment

[sailboatgirl]

I'm so loving these retro threads! They definitely provide a "fix" until recruitment starts in full swing late this summer!

Another retro thread! It will be fun to be the spectator this time around. And I'm always fascinated by SEC recruitment stories.

Can we get a list of the chapters that existed at UGA when you went through? (I know I could pull up a current list, but I wasn't sure if there had been any changes since then? Besides, its nice to have them in the thread for easy reference. )

I'm trying to see if I can do this from memory:
Alpha Gamma Delta
Alpha Chi Omega
Alpha Delta Pi
Alpha Omicron Pi
Chi Omega
Delta Delta Delta
Delta Gamma
Delta Zeta
Delta Phi Epsilon
Gamma Phi Beta
Kappa Alpha Theta
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Kappa Delta
Pi Beta Phi
Phi Mu
Sigma Delta Tau
Sigma Kappa
Zeta Tau Alpha

I think the last group to add was in the 1980s, so they are the same as the ones on campus today.
There was a GC rumor that one group left, but the rush guide for this fall still indicates 18 groups.

There is no Alpha Omega Pi in the NPC. Alpha Omicron Pi. Thanks.

Sorry! I knew that and was actually surprised that I made that mistake. I was simply thinking AOPi, and I didn't pay enough attention to what I typed. I fixed it in the list. Again, sorry.

ROUND ONE, DAY TWO:
CHARITY HOPE VALENTINE: This house seems similar to Annie Oakley and Eva Peron. There was a girl from my high school in the house and she knew my name and remembered seeing me in a play.

ANNE EGERMAN: This house is very similar to Annie Oakley, Charity Hope Valentine, and Eva Peron. Overall, the girls were nice and friendly, but the last girl I spoke to asked me some questions about partying and I didn't know how to respond.

ELIZA DOOLITTLE: They wore dresses in one of their colors and sang instead of screaming. That was cool... it was so very different from what I saw at the other houses. They were all so gorgeous and nice, and I know a lot of girls in my group want to pledge there. But I felt out of place, like they were all models!

KATE MONSTER: The first girl I talked to asked some very invasive questions and it made me feel very uncomfortable.

CORA HOOPER: Everyone in my group complained about having to go here. They were very small and one girl had to talk to three of us at once and no one ever switched with her. It was like being at an interview.

MAGNOLIA HAWKINS: They wore one of their colors and had pretty nametags in the shape of their symbol! Every girl seemed cool and nice. I love the location of this house, in particular. They seemed the most genuine of all the chapters. I am so glad I got to see this house last because it was a great way to end round one.

After the six houses, we went back to Tate to do our rankings. We can be asked back to a maximum of twelve, so we are supposed to really think about the houses we want to go back to most. Caroline says girls rarely have a full party schedule, so we need to be willing to go back everywhere.
ROUND ONE RANKINGS:
1. Magnolia Hawkins
2. Carrie Pipperidge
3. Janet Weiss
4. Julie Jordan
5. Dolly Levi
6. Babe Williams
7. Margo Channing
8. Eva Peron
9. Charity Hope Valentine
10. Anne Egerman
11. Annie Oakley
12. Lois Lane
13. Eliza Doolittle
14. Reno Sweeney
15. Roxie Hart
16. Kate Monster
17. Cora Hooper
18. Marian Paroo

We will get our schedules for Round Two tomorrow! Round Two is two days long (This was the last year that skits were round two and not round three). The girls on my hall were all talking about where they made "connections" with girls and it seemed like they had all made a "connection" at the houses they really wanted prior to round one. I guess I made "connections" at my top 7 because those are the only ones I really really hope I get invited back to for round two... but I am willing to give everyone a second try!

I know!! And I too like to hear about Southern recruitment. This is awesome!! Thanks dgdramadawg!!

I have to root for Dolly Levi or Janet Weiss since you don't like Roxie Hart or Reno Sweeney! I actually started writing my thread and since I am a drama girl as well, my chapters are named after musicals. But don't worry, there's not too much overlap with your characters and my musicals.
