The University of Texas Austin-A Hill Country Recruitment! - Page 3

Due to the very large number of PNMs, it was decided to add 5 parties to Philanthropy for a total of 15. There are 7 today (Fri) and 8 on Saturday. That will cause some PNMs to have an uneven split between days. Additional parties are also added to skit night. This is very exhausting for the actives, but so very exciting to have so many PNMs.

Does anyone have any idea what they are projecting quota to be? I would think we will be seeing one of the larger pledge classes some of these chapters have seen in a long time. I know for me I have never been a numbers game person, as rush is a process of the heart but I find a higher number exciting for UT Panhellenic!

So late to this party preparing for my school's recruitment, but I'm IN LOVE with this code!!!

I was going for BOERNE, as that's my hometown

New fav (and hopefully Sweet Pea's) is Wimberley, as one of my fav sister's hometown.

Best of luck and what a week for the UPC community!

Once again a very reliable source was told to expect quota to be around 60 ...hope all the PNM's are enjoying the process. The actives are finding this years added parties to be exhausting but are doing their best to keep everything positive and worthwhile...hang in there and don't stress about numbers

mmmm... Salt Lick at Dripping Springs... Due to your thread, in_a_mad_rush, and Wary's theme, I'm now drooling

Best of luck to both your PNMs

Skit Night….All Parties are tonight. Each house will host 7 parties and PNMs will max out at 6 houses each. Sweet Pea was invited back to 6 houses, one of which she ranked in her bottom two yesterday.

So Sweet Pea will be attending the following parties:

Wimberely

Dripping Springs

Blanco

New Braunfels

Kerrville

Leakey

After tonight’s round, each PNM will rank her choices, ideally going to a max of three tomorrow. Of course it only takes ONE! So one is always better than none! Good Luck to ALL UT PNMs tonight!

Just curious why Ms. George feels it is neccessary to QFP almost every recruitment story posted on these boards? When enjoying everyone else's stories, I find to an interruption, annoying and frankly rude, as it lends itself to a general position of distrust. Certainly there are better ways to spend the day. JMO.

I agree. She did it to my recruitment thread too, and it made me feel like she was calling me out as being a liar or something.

I agree that the QFP is getting annoying. But then, I'm the anti-QFP person who even started a thread on the over-use of it.

Wary · #12 08-22-2011, 01:39 PM

That's exactly what she's doing... It's ammunition. You say that your daughter liked Dripping Springs and found the New Braunfels skit funny? Lies! I will quote you for posterity so that later when these are proven to be lies, you will look like the conniving heli-mom that you are!

You guys can hide Regina (or any non-mod GC member) if you feel her posts are destroying the flow of your day. Just click on her username-->view public profile-->user lists--> add to ignore list.

If you feel her posts are offensive, click on the report button.

Interrupting a thread to complain about interruptions in a thread =

Lies? You mean like the lie you tell people about being Greek yourself?

Good Luck to your daughter tonite! I got back yesterday from helping with my daughter's chapter and I dont think I or she have ever been more exhausted! It was great fun though!!

The thing that made it so exhausting is the fact that they had to add extra parties for philanthropy and skit...they are not complaining as this is a postitve thing for greeklife at UT..UT is SUPER competitve, but it makes up only 12-15% of the student body there. I had not heard how many girls had dropped out as of yesterday..anyone here know?
