^^^That came out of your fingertips perfectly! Yes, that sums it up well as far as I know. Speaking strictly as a teacher, I would say its a darn good idea for them.

A Xi Husky - Thank you for correcting the info on the scheduling. I had assumed that given the sheer number of sororities at UW, recruitment would be an all day/every day thing.

Okay, so in one brief morning I've given UW credit for a good idea, and thanked a Husky. I need to stop now otherwise I may have to drive myself over to Nike headquarters, turn in all of my Duck gear, and beg Uncle Phil for forgiveness.

Or you could give me any and all football tickets for this season. It's what Uncle Phil would tell you to do for penance.

It is a great idea though. There are so many people who freak out at class sizes, a little introduction wouldn't be a bad thing.

See, WC, this is why I love young Ducklings - never lose their focus - look for any opportunity to get those tickets! .

I would happily help you out, but they are no longer in my price range (heard a rumor that Cal tickets were going to $81 ), and I refuse to watch because I superstiously believe they will lose if I do. Hence the reason many of my beaver and husky friends offer to buy me tickets!

Interestingly, none of the Cougar friends offer. Apparently, even my presence is not enough to help them.

Yes, Alpha Xi - I am a proud Duck, but given the results of the past -what is it now - 8 years (?), I figure I can afford to be gracious to the Huskys (lol).

Those would be incredibly long days. I can't imagine what its like for the girls in the chapters! Daughter told me at one time they had a two day break between the end of recruitment and the start of school. Is that still true? I can imagine they need it.

I'll add one more UW compliment before football/basketball season starts, and I'm just physically incapable of it (great, now I'll owe WC basketball tickets too); UW has the prettiest Greek Row (or Greek Rows, technically) in the Pac-12 (still sounds odd).

Wait, you're a Duck? Boooooooooo.
(kidding!)

Recruitment is still an every day thing, just shifted more towards the latter part of the day than right in the middle. But with that shift, and given that there are 17(!) sororities now, it can go pretty late into the evening - during one of the days it won't end until after 9pm. Makes for some late nights.
