This intrigues me, as I looked for it in the Green Book and could not find it. Where is this stated? Specifically that someone who withdraws or ISPs cannot be considered a snap bid?

Its local. they have to be signed up to be reconsidered. It may be what's considered "snap" where you are. But you cannot tell a girl who drops out after 2nd or 3rd round to sit in her room and "wait for the phone to ring" it won't happen at UGA. She's got to sign up for COB. If you want to call her a snap, so be it. But technically she's not.

Can any of the snaps or COBs on Bid Day be quota additions or are they just for the groups that didn't make quota?

When you say about "signing up" for COB - can they sign up for it from all the chapters, or just certain ones?

The houses advertise which ones are participating in COB.

So of the ones that are participating, you can sign up for only the ones that are of interest to you. (or you can sign up for all the ones participating, too)

Thanks melongirl - you are explaining so many things in this thread and doing it so well! You rock.

So I'll ask another question - is it mainly the groups under total that COB? If not, how do they know they won't have enough people filling quota to participate?

Thanks!!

There are a couple of houses that are under house total. Even with quota, they may still be under "house total". They would be interested in doing COB.

There are also some houses that have come close to quota the past two years that may have sign-ups to have a net of girls in case they need to get to quota. As I said before, houses can COB on bid day and the girls are welcomed on bid day with the rest of formal rush and there is no stigma of being known as a "COB" pick.

[emphasis added]

melongirl, just asking -- I'm not criticizing: at UGA at other times during the year, i.e., after formal recruitment, is there actually a "stigma" connected to COB?

Melon Girl,
Will UGA Panhellenic eventually post a list of the new members of each sorority as was done at Auburn and Oklahoma State? Does anyone know?
