Since we took a look at the Auburn Recruitment Guide, here's the Alabama one. I haven't checked it for imperfections.

And there is no "founded at UA" date for Phi Mu.

There are the usual fictional famous alums -- but my favorite error is that the Christian sorority describes itself as "inter-demonitational"! Whatever that means, it doesn't sound very Christian.

^^^Willing to accept demons who have varying theological viewpoints? Guess no one could accuse them of being close-minded.

I thought the video was fun. Seems like they all were having fun, at least. People place too much emphasis on looking "cool" when it's way more fun to be a big old dork who does dorky things.

Ok, worried mom here. My daughter is rushing this year. This morning she found out she was only invited to four philanthropy day visits. Might she be invited to zero on the next round and just dropped from the process? I'm scared that she will be standing in a crowd and find out she was the only one in her group that got a zero in the next round. How is this handled?

It's great that she got 4 back. Some girls aren't as lucky. It only takes ONE, so count your blessings so far.
If she is released from recruitment she will likely get a phone call from her Recruitment Counselor before the next round begins so she won't be that girl standing in a crowd without any invites.
Relax and breathe. She's still got 4 houses to visit.

I know nothing about Bama, but at every school I've ever heard of, she gets a private call from her Rho Chi prior to arriving at the invitation pick-up spot if she has indeed been dropped. That said, take a deep breath, four is still plenty of invites at this point.

Uniformed, if you read through some live threads here, you will see some girls taking big cuts early and doing just fine and others getting back a full or nearly full schedule and then getting cut out completely. So in short, her having a shortened schedule doesn't say anything about her result. Try to help her relax and enjoy the chapters she still has, and we'll all hope the best for you and your daughter.

A bunch of rich white girl wiggas is what's wrong with it. I'm assuming that wasn't their intent, but that's how it came off - to me anyway.

Just found out my rec girl is attending 10 of 11 parties during philanthropy round (first invitational) at UA. She is a UA legacy at 2 houses, several generations removed though. And an OOS girl. Hoping she finds her home.
The video is silly, but not national news worthy, IMHO. Aren't there more important things to report on? Guess even news directors need a diversion from politics and the bad economy.

I saw the Auburn KD video first, it makes this one look so much better! Sometimes I don't know what these girls are thinking.

They are having a good time and being silly. The only problem is they post it on utube for a review.

I think that's it exactly. I also thought Anderson Cooper gave it the serious treatment it so richly deserved.
I should disclose that I have a huge crush on Anderson, so I may have a bias.
