Just when you though the story was over...

One of our COB girls never responded, so we assumed she was declining her Bid. Well, we called her today to make sure - and it turns out she never got the message! She accepted very enthusiastically and we have a final pledge class total of 37 new Venuses! Just 3 below quota!

Life is full of great surprises

With the three day weekend people may be harder to reach, so if I may suggest, give those who didn't respond one last jingle (text, email, what have you) Wednesday when they are likely back on campus and fully functioning.

True...maybe the same slacker sister was assigned to call all three haha! Anyways, congratulations.

Side note, I am done with recruitment as an undergraduate now (mix of sadness and relief) but this was the BEST recruitment thread. Next year people have to do this more often...giving star PNMs code names and giving a behind the scenes look (minus membership selection details obviously!). It was SO fun to read and I think it gives PNMs an idea of all the hard work we put into making decisions...and also how excited we are to really have new sisters on bid day! Now they can see that it's not "Oh, I guess we got Amy and Becky and some chick named Cindy", it's much more "We've been obsessing over Amy and Becky and Cindy all week and are so excited to have them!"

OK, whatever, I'm a nerd, but I am so sad this thread is done but yet so happy for your chapter.
