People...the names are random! I just used the names of the movie
stars for code names so I could be honest about her feelings. Don't
go reading more into the description as you may very well be going
in the wrong direction!!!! Let's keep this fun and a way to enjoy another recruitment story! This momma did not attend Ole Miss so I
have no prior knowledge about the different sororities...we are
swimming in the unknown!

[Tennissusan]

Good Luck to your daughter! I'm cheering for Reese and Julia!
My D is also going thru recruitment at Ole Miss and she was
so excited on the phone last night...I think the girls on her
floor were bouncing off the walls!

[Ole Miss Phi Mu]

I'm glad that everyone's having a good time! I'm so tired from last night, but I can't wait for tonight!

[LegallyBrunette]

My vote is for Reese. Obviously.

They are random, but some people are familiar with some campuses and could figure out who's who from descriptions.

Round 2

I will keep it short and sweet. My daughter finished up with
3 houses last night! Here is her thoughts on those houses:

Jennifer Aniston - had heard lots of hype about this house,
she was rather disappointed! Didn't live up to her expectations
at all.

Rachel McAdams - Was pleasantly surprised how much she
enjoyed this house! The girls were delightful and she had
a wonderful time here last night!

Kate Hudson - Nice group of girls! Were all very nice to her,
but just doesn't think this is the place for her socially.

I believe she told me that the Tri-Delts, Chi O's and KD's had
to cut about 440 girls due to the new release figure system?
They p/u their invites today at 3:15pm and tonight is Skit Night!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~
Just imagine---midwest NPC's (Not SEC NPC's) releasing over 800 PNM's after 15 minutes of open house. Talk about a need for resume's and pictures!

Great posting mom! All the best from one mom to another!

I have kept my daughter's thoughts---so don't ever erase your messages from your daughter, they are so sweet to go thru years later!

Glad your daughter is keeping an open mind and positive attitude. Can't wait to hear her invite list.
Doesn't she have another round tonight?

I'm very curious. How do you cut 440 girls in one round? How can one chapter -- beit 300 women -- talk to that many.

If round one cuts were strictly for grades, that would be easy -- You just go down the list. Or, did they have their minds made up before the door song?

I went to a school where 1200 went through recruitment. I don't know of any house that cut so many on the first round, and these were houses that only took 30 - 35 in the pledge classes.

Either the numbers don't add up, or the PNMs were overly prejudged.

[FSUZeta]

it that figure is correct, it is not by choice that the chapters cut pnms, but due to release figures from previous years. they have to cut that amount per panhellenic, although they may cut more than that.

Hi -
My D is also going thru rush at Ole Miss. She is a legacy (myself and my sister) but I've told her to go with the group she feels the most comfortable with.

She called last night after the first round of parties and said "She loved it!" Felt right at home with many of the groups. Only one of the parties did she say she didn't feel connected with anyone. She is looking forward to tonight! Also had a big math test today so hoping that she was able to study after last night's excitement.

I have been so impressed with how organized Ole Miss has been with their rush. I know whatever group she goes with, she will find a home.
