Kappa Alpha Theta Re-colonization at Auburn

My husband and son are leaving for Auburn in 10 minutes and they're under strict instructions to report anything they see or hear about Theta's colonization!

We were down there on the 23rd for a college visit and saw fliers but when we stopped at the Greek life office, Jill Moore wasn't there to answer questions. The woman I did ask about total for the sororities did not know what I was talking about and when one of the young men with us asked how many fraternities there are, she said she though 12(!) (there are at least 26).

Okay, this made me laugh out loud. Will they actually comply with this request?

Well, yeah, with 6 Greek daughters and a Greek wife, my husband has gotten kind of interested in Greek life. I told him to watch out for signs that were gold and black and had kites and said something like "Kappa Alpha Theta welcomes its million new pledges". He'll have several hours to kill while he's waiting for our son so he just might see something!

Theta was in the dorm next to ours when I was at Auburn. Several of us had good Theta friends. This is so cool!

Sorry - I've been catching up on sleep.

Bid Day was Wednesday and there are now 117 FABULOUS colony members at Auburn. It was so great to meet the women. I am going back in March to help them prepare for Formal Recruitment and I could not be more excited. Our 3 based ELCs there are doing a tremendous job as well. We will have a space in "The Village" and I got to see some of the fabric swatches. It's going to be beautiful!

Another note - the Auburn Panhellenic was so helpful and welcoming. The women wore "Think Theta" buttons on campus. The store windows downtown featured black and gold clothing. The Chick-Fil-A window was even painted "think theta". And my favorite of all - some of the panhellenic women came to cheer for our new members when they got their bids. How great is that? I am not just MDD but PHDD as well so I am thrilled to be working with our VPPH and VPM on this campus.

Waaaar Eagle!
