Which brings me to my question, does any uw alum know what happened at bid day? I heard from a friend's mom that over 300 girls didn't show up. I am sure that this is exaggerated, but I noticed that chapters pledge classes look at LOT smaller then they said they would be. I didn't know that informal started on bid day...I thought this was strange...not that I'm one to know....
And again, thank you all.

I'm noy a UW alumna, but maybe I can offer a little insight:
300 girls sounds like a bit of an exaggeration. I'm not a UW alumna, but I can tell you that sometimes (for whatever reason) chapters don't make quota or girls decide at the last minute to drop out before prefs or not to accept their bids, which can lead to the varying sizes of pledge classes. It happens at many schools for any number of reasons.
As far as informal goes, chapters have to wait until formal recruitment is over to start informal. At most schools, this means they can begin as soon as Bid Day because that event officially marks the end of formal recruitment.
