We always had it either earlier or later than the holidays, but never during. Even if that meant pushing it to the first weekend in October (not normal for us.)

I wish someone would do a live recruitment story!!!My daughter was so hoarse last night !! She is feeling the typical first rush angst and absolutely hates cutting anyone!! She likes everyone she had! Oh if only everyone felt that way haha and we lived in a world of rainbows and unicorns!!Can't wait to hear stories. Good Luck to all the PNMS on their second day!

I think it's really funny when Ohio greeks at smaller schools tend to think that OSU has this HUGEEEEEE greek system or that their school's recruitment circumstances are special.

I don't want to hijack the Ole Miss thread further, but you can PM me more about BW if you want. Even as someone who lives in NE OH, I admittedly don't know a lot about other OH school's recruitment structures (outside of the others in the MAC and OSU.)

Anyone know how many were released and/or withdrew after Philanthropy (Wed. & Thur.) ?

My Ole Miss PNM is having a great time!

Skit round today.

MaryPoppins · #7 09-30-2011, 10:11 PM

So glad your PNM is having a good time, dgdramadawg!

I have two rec girls going through recruitment at Ole Miss and I have had heard nothing from them! I am dying over here but wishing them well...I keep reading this thread hoping for a glimmer of how things are going.

Keeping my fingers crossed that both find a home!

Just heard that about 65% of PNM's returned for Skit Night.

80sAST · #10 10-01-2011, 01:15 AM

Holy cow that means 400+ girls dropped or were dropped goodness surely that is incorrect!

I just got home from the AOII house...I am not sure that is correct at all. They are still saying quota will be between 115-130. So, I do not believe that is correct. AOII is doing very well! I have heard ALL of the chapters are doing well too! So many pretty PNMs tonight too! I can't wait for bids to go out tomorrow! (Oh and a bunch of my rec girls were back tonight at AOII Pref!!! YEAH!)

ETA: The weather has been amazing the past couple of days! Cool, breezy, sunny! Great recruitment weather!

@80sAST - That's what I heard. I am not working in Recruitment this year. Did not come from any person in official authority. However, the number of registered PNM's this year was about 36% above last year and above the trend from past years. Maybe that made for a volatile year?

I'm so excited - my beloved niece is going through Ole Miss recruitment. So far, so good, but wondering what this afternoon will bring. My sister-in-law is hoping, hoping things will work out with her legacy sorority.

I'm sorry, but I would prefer not to give any details live.

When do they do the first round of cuts due to grades?? Sounds like alot of girls were cut BEFORE they even attended the first skit round at Ole Miss. Is this true?

It depends on the sorority, since that is part of membership selection which is private. Some might release more after philanthropy and some might release more after skit.
