How does bids work. Can a girl get only one bid or more then one? Trying to figure out what bid matching is.

You can only receive one.

The EXTREME cliff notes of bid matching (it is QUITE complicated):

The girls rank the chapters they Pref, and the sororities submit ranked lists of the girls who attended their Pref parties. The girls are matched. Who they get a bid from depends on how they ranked on chapter's lists and how they ranked the chapters after Pref.

back in the early 90's- our bid day was the day after preference. The rush chair would get the bid list about 2 hours before the new members arrived. She would share it with the New Member Educator who would match up Panda Pals. If you signed up to be a Panda Pal you would be told by the NME who it was- but she didn't share the whole list. You could find out most of the people by asking other members their Panda Pal was, but it wasn't broadcast. After the new members arrived the active member Panda Pal would stand up and introduce their new member Panda Pal to everyone.

Also, if you had a rush crush that did not match with us, the Rush chair would pull you aside and tell you so you wouldn't be disappointed when the women ran to the house.

(wow I got through that without calling the NMs Pledges- I'm doing better!)
