Smile Another result from UGA

An advisor from our UGA chapter just told me Tri Delta took quota of 58 plus 4 for a total of 62. She was very excited about the new members.

I think the picture of the signs hanging off the TriDelt house with the pledges names listed are the closest we're going to get to a bid list.

I guess I lied when I said I didn't know anybody going through rush at UGA. The first picture I clicked on I saw a girl from church (she went to private school, so I forgot about her, I guess).

But from the looks of the photo (crown name tags), she pledged Zeta, which was her legacy chapter.

Gorgeous photos and just the beginning of the fun and excitement of college.

Looking through those makes you realize how little it means for a girl rushing at UGA in 2008 to be described as pretty. I got tired of clicking on new pictures before I saw a girl who was anything less than stunning.

I had the exact same thought. Not attractive at all...many looked like they stepped out of the 80s. Are those "top tier" guys? It seems to look like that in every video or photo I see of the southern chapters - gorgeous, polished girls and slobby guys.

Yep. Doesn't some of what they are wearing just kind of say, "I'm being hazed"?

And does anyone know what Kappa's theme was?

Peppy, at some of the SEC schools, the ratio is about 60% female overall and the Greek system is tipped toward girls way outnumbering guys. Maybe the guys figure they can let themselves go.

All the active sisters were wearing baseball/softball/sporty looking outfits.

It took me a long time to realize that the girls wearing jerseys were participating in bid day as opposed whatever the Red Bull chicks were doing, and then once I did, it took at long time to figure out which group they were.

Cool to break with tradition once in a while and it looked like they had a great time.

I thought this was so cute! It was kind of refreshing, after all those perfect looking girls in sundresses, to see the Kappas decked out in those hilarious outfits! But then again I'm a little biased...

My school was 60% women, too...actually, that's a trend at many/most universities now.
