Can you add this one to the list?
"AGDAlum's Friend's Daughter at Mississippi State"
She's got recs for all but Phi Mu and Chi O.

I have a cousin going through recruitment in the fall!
Also, I have my dance crew (girls from the dance team I coach). Some have recs from me, but not all are going to schools with Sigma Kappa.

My son, along with two of his best friends, are all heading out of state to the same SEC school. They have already been to a few spring/summer parties and are looking forward to the more formal recruitment process. I've also written recs for 6 girls from my son's high school who will be attending the same university.

Thank you for changing your post. It is definitely better not to mention specifics. If someone from your school sees this (and there are several posters from AZ), it could significantly hurt your recruitment opportunities.

The recommendations can only come from members of the sorority, although they do not have to have been from that particular chapter. If you can't find people you know to write the recommendations for you, try contacting your local alumnae panhellenic. They have women who will be very used to writing recommendations for PNMs.

I'm rushing at UF this fall and as it draws nearer I am getting more and more excited!! I'm looking for recs, so if anybody would be willing to get to know me more and write one for me, that would be absolutely wonderful and I'd be SO appreciative! I love Greek chat and it's answered so many questions for me!

To you and all going through Recruitment this Fall, here's the new Panhellenic Website!

http://ufpanhellenic.com/home

Its completely updated, so it should be very helpful.

If you have any questions, I may be of help - I'm on the Panhellenic Council at UF currently.

question about bid matching

i'm rushing this fall!

quick question about bid matching:
at my school, pnms pref 2 houses. let's say you rank ABC as your first choice and XYZ as your second. ABC's first bidlist is 10 girls long and you are number 11, and you are number 1 on XYZ's first bidlist. so the computer goes through once and recognizes that you are not on your first choice's (ABC's) first bidlist.

my question is, is XYZ immediately notified that you are a match for them? if at least one girl on ABC's first bidlist matches with her first choice that is another house, can you get moved up on ABC's bidlist and be extended a bid from ABC?

Thanks!!

a PNM is never matched to her second choice until her first choice reaches quota. So, yes .. if/when one of the PNMs on ABC's first bidlist is matched to another sorority (GHI) then her name drops off ABC's first bidlist and the next name in line on the second bid list is moved to the first bid list.

That's why hand matching is so much fun - who's going to be the first to yell, "Closed!"

Jill, you didn't forget my little's daughter, did you? She is second term, though.
