I'm sure this pony cheer thing is just fun and silly, and is not the crude or sexual thing some of you perverts are thinking.

You dirty minds need some Orbitz gum.

And you need to get travelling out of your head! That's Orbit gum :P

I've seen some more pictures. Definitely not dirty, just weird.

Total highjack, but didn't the girl from those commercials play Bobbi on the Gilmore Girls?

This is older, but we did lots of pictures (the New Member class, the New Member/Violet Sister duo, any New Members who were a "group", etc, etc), then the brothers of Phi Delta Theta came over to do "Kiss and Carnation". They had a carnation for each New Member, and would present it and a (chaste) kiss to each one - a very pretty tradition. We then had an All-Greek Mixer - a very BAD idea for Bid Night!

I understand the nightmare you got into with the weeping members that one year, but the all Greek event just seems like such a good idea. If not bid day, certainly a big event soon after bid day or something.

I just know that at my campus there was a lot of rhetoric during recruitment about "it's great to be Greek, Panhellenic, blah, blah, blah," but when it actually came down to it, I don't think we were ever together until Greek Week, if then. Sure you had socials and events at homecoming, but unless I'm misremembering, very little was all-Greek, ever.

Now why is that? Granted I've got my late 1970's post rush mind set going on. But the All-Greek mixers that I remember were fun and positive. A celebration of being Greek as it were.

The reason I ask is that NPC rush (as it was called then) ended during the middle of IFC rush. Most of the pledge classes - after they did their bid day stuff - would make the rounds at some of the fraternity rush parties to "introduce" themselves. I personally loved meeting all the new sorority members.

Yeah I need to catch up like woah. I have no clue who Bobbi is. I kinda tailed off watching when Rory went off the rails because it ticked me off so much.
