I read the list, and I have a guess based on one of her emails, and I believe that "Kate" was a pseudonym. I won't share how I think I know, but if I am right, she is a lucky gal!!!
PM me if you want to know my guess

Not to worry, ladies! The thread has not been ruined!!! I just scanned the bidlist...there are three Katies..two from IL and one from PA who went KKG and DDD. Several other northern girls with various names went DZ and SK. I;m sure there are plenty more...I got bored looking! We still get to hear from mom where Kate found her home!

So there are a bunch of girls at bottom out of alpha order....snap bids???
There were two Katie's from IL so Kate could be here or about 50 other girls who are not from the deep south. Missouri and IN had a couple too.
No Jersey girls though.
Oh, and how does Kappa have 66?????? Were they under total?

Go to the first post... she said "I'll call her Kate".
So I believe that Kate is a pseudonym.

The Reveal!
She is a DZ! Her number one choice! She is elated, excited and exhausted! Let me tell you about it!
I drove to Auburn for bid day not sure what to expect. My daughter had asked me to come but I really did not want to be one of only a handful of moms to be there. I was in for a nice surprise when I arrived at the outdoor ampitheater....there were parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, and plenty of fraternity guys on hand for the ceremony. The atmosphere was one of celebration and it was very welcoming and warm (literally). The girls met their Pi Chi's and waited anxiously for 3:00 to arrive. At about 2:55 approximately 10 representatives from each sorority came marching down the hill wearing sundresses' in their sorority colors. Once they arrived it was not long before a truck filled with panhellenic reps. riding in the back and waving flags drove up the street towards the ampitheater. The cheers erupted and we knew that the bids had arrived! The bids were distributed very quickly and soon the ampitheater was full of cheers, hugs, and whoops as families and friends celebrated with their daughters. Everyone was then invited back to the chapter room for a reception and for a chance to get to know some of the people who will be important to the new pledges. Once the reception ended we had a few hours to spend together before she had to be off to the sorority for her first night as a DZ. I am exhausted! It was at least 100 degrees today and the heat wiped me out. As for her friends....one was released after a suicide bid, one got her third choice and is unsure what to do, and two are very happy girls tonight.

The girls at the bottom were omitted in the preparation of the list per one of the members I spoke to this afternoon. As for KKG taking quota additions...the chapter is quite large. They probably used quota additions to take girls who listed Kappa first, but were still available after matching. This is the one time you can do this. The nice thing is that no one knows (except panhellenic) who was in the original group taken in quota and who might have been very blessed to be a quota addition. AU's rush is brutal. Congratulations to Kate and to her mom!!! Whew!! Can't wait to see which is the lucky group.
