Bid day at bama

I just got home from Tuscaloosa and couldn't wait to post! My daughter got her #1 pick!!! She is now a proud member of the pledge class of ADPi! She was so excited. They are already on their way to a pledge retreat! What a fun way to end a stressful week...

Her roommate also went ADPi! What a funny coincidence!

Thanks GC! All of you have been a great help this week!

That's a good point - those new members should all know that we'd love to have them here at Greek Chat.

I know some of you are going to think this is a crazy question but what do they mean by old row at Alabama?

Old Row is Colonial Drive ... the newer houses are the next street over.

Houses on Old Row are Phi Mu, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Alpha Chi Omega, Alpha Omicron Pi, and Kappa Alpha Theta.

I thought Alpha Gam was old row and First Circle.

Now, I did my undergrad at Florida and simply teach here now ... but you are correct in Alpha Gam was there originally. Apparently, when they enlarged the stadium, the KD house and Alpha Gam house were moved ... the Tri-Delts chose to build a new house ... I think. I merely mentioned the only surviving houses.

Old Row really is really meaningless as it is a fairly arbritrary designation. Alpha Gam, KD, Tri-Delt, Kappa, ChiO and Phi Mu are considered by most to be "Old Row" with AOPi and Alpha Chi are included quite a bit. This throws location out as these houses are on both streets of sorority row. Also, ADPi, which is the second oldest house on campus, was never considered "Old Row" when I was in school but AOPi, which was one of the newer houses, was. You can probably see why I see it as a fairly arbirtrary designation since age nor location have nothing to do with it.

Clarification: By age, I mean the length of time each chapter has been in existence at Alabama. NOT the age of the physical house.
