I've been following this tread since the beginning, and am wondering if Alabama Panhellenic is really telling the PNMs what the process is truly like. Grades, alumni recs, and friends in houses do play a part in the bid process, but sounds like luck has as much a part. My daughter plans on attending Bama as an oos student next year and is a DG and AGD legacy. Other family members are KD, KAT, DZ, DDD, so recs aren't an issue for most houses. Although none of us attended Alabama. She would prefer to wait until her sophomore year to rush, but that might not be a good idea at Bama. Looks like upperclass women don't have as great an opportunity. I'm starting to worry about the OOS issue, she too doesn't know anyone at Bama.
