I hesitate to call this a retro story because I don't want to feel old yet :)

I actually has SK pegged as the one with the "mismatched" colors the minute OP mentioned it - i feel like it's been talked about enough on GC. either SK or GPhiB. then thought... it sounds like more Gamma Phi Betas on here use different variations of brown and mode (im so sorry if im botching it up) .

in any case, loved this story - congrats!

ETA: not really congrats, since it's a retro story, but... still, congrats!

I was thinking maybe Chi O, because the cardinal & straw can be pretty bright if you aren't used to seeing them. Or maybe AGD for Christmas colors? I'm sure you can find something with any combo though (I was tired of blue, my university's colors were navy & white so Kappas blue & blue made me think "enough already!"). I wouldn't have thought Gamma Phi, although I suppose to a freshman brown may not be ideal (I didn't start appreciating brown until a couple of years ago).

And congrats on Sigma Kappa! I'm curious- you said your roommate didn't get a bid there, but which group did she go to? Or maybe I missed that.
