I just had to add something here. I walked a very special (to me) PNM through recruitment. She called me after she got her pref list. She liked two of them and didn't like the third. I tried very hard to get her to keep an open mind and put all three down. She refused and only included two. She did not get a bid, but she handled it well.

Luckily, I had been reading this board and was well versed in the DG recolonization. I sent her an email and suggested she look into this. She did and she is now a DG pledge. Thank you ladies for making this information available.

Delta Gamma, you did good

Today at the nail salon, I was sitting next to a Bama mom who was talking about how much her daughter loves the school and her new sorority.

I asked her where her daughter pledged, like I'd ask any mom in this situation. I've asked tons of moms this question over the years...

But this was the first time I got to hear "Delta Gamma" as the answer from the mom of a Bama girl!

Thank y'all so much!

And the anchor was sent to another chapter - up north (don't want to call them out!) Getting it back since it's cemented into a patio is a little problematic....but we shall see. The clock is the most important thing to us (Tiffany moon face !)

I think I know where it is, but maybe it is a common feature of DG houses?

I know a lot of DG chapters have anchors...is it at UMD?

Congrats Delta Gamma!!

And maybe a replica anchor sent as a gift from the chapter that has the original could happen or something similar.

Anchors are easily purchased and can be loaned permanently by the Navy. We'll get one.

So happy for Delta Gamma, and love hearing the stories in this thread.
I hope that all future colonizations can be as supported and successful as this one!
