You said "Hail State" to me the other day! You just love bustin' chops, don't you?

Squeal Day

Anyone going? My husband and I got a hotel room for the night before (since we are 4 hours away). We decided to be there early in case my daughter is one of the few who get that sad phone call between 7 & 9am saying they have fallen through rush.

Other than that, we are looking forward to the adrenaline rush of bid day and being on Sorority Row with several thousand of our new best friends melting in the sun!

I have to say though, on the Advisor end, recruitment has gotten easier. There are times though, I would like to strangle my recruitment chair

I can not even imagine being on the other side while my daughter is going through recruitment at a competitive school. I have had my fair share of phone calls from Mom's- most by the way are pretty pleasant. They usually just want to know what happened. Good Luck and keep us posted on your dd's going through. I love a good recruitment story.

Wear something that will help you stay cool. There is not a lot of shade on Magnolia Drive or Sorority Row. There should be a tent set up in front of the house your daughter gets a bid for so that you can register as mom, etc. Wouldn't hurt to have some bottled water with you.

They will probably serve your daughter and her family a light lunch. If you haven't already contacted "Letters" about a bid day gift, they have several packages they will put together for you so that you can avoid trying to get into the store on Saturday or Sunday.

It will be a mad house. Take lots of photos!

I've already done Squeal Day twice with my daughters (both Tri Delta), but don't plan to go this year because I have an exchange student who is arriving from Germany on Saturday evening.
