Okay, Okay, carnation's retro rush thread (ie, how not to do recruitment)

[carnation]

The rules were relaxing quickly throughtout the seventies at Auburn; for example, senior women didn't have to sign out! This was great for several reasons but a biggie was that we realized that guys were reading our sign-out cards before we came downstairs to see who we'd been going out with. So one of my sisters wrote some fake names on her card and when she walked in, her date said, "I hear you've been going out with 'Chip Smith'."

She had created the name out of the blue and asked him how he knew and he said, "Oh, people know. People talk."

Guess we've come full circle because most of the kids now just use their cell phones instead of having a phone in their room. My son had a phone jack in his room, but he and his roomie never connected a phone.

I remember having phones in my room though. At the Kappa house, we had a WATS line that the in-state girls (or I guess any out-of-state member who wanted to make in-state long distance calls) could pay to use. It was great!
