What's the point of skits?

[Titchou]

I think they quit the favors in the 80's though I might be wrong. It was kind of fun and I still treasure that lyre though anchors are my first love!

Cheesy and stupid as they are, I'd hate to get rid of skits. I loved the "creative" part - seeing the acting, singing, and dancing talents of sisters. It was also a break from having to talk talk talk - I definitely looked forward to that!

I just missed the food and gifts during recruitment. Thank goodness - imagine having to feed anything to 1,500 girls! I advised a year at a chapter where a pref meal at an alum's house was the norm. Of course you have to plan a menu that's fairly light, because the girls eat twice that night...and of course they just pick at their food.

That year a generous alum let us use her home. She did heavy-duty corporate entertaining for her husband. Her huge kitchen was set up with duplicates on opposite walls - double dishwashers, ovens, sinks, etc. etc. You see a lot of that now, but we thought we were in heaven!

And here I thought maybe she was keeping Kosher.

Could be...we were just told that she did a lot of corporate entertaining...

She probably would have told you if you weren't allowed to use certain fixtures for certain foods, so what you were told was probably right
