There were representatives from the house corporation, moms of legacies and chapter advisors present. The women had been posing for pictures in front of the nearly completed new chapter house" jumping for joy". Dresses would not have been appropriate for the photos. You can access the images on their facebook page.
Last year they were attired in dresses as the other chapters were this year. Next fall they will have the opportunity to recruit members in the new chapter house.
The architectural firm which is in charge of building the new chapter house is the same one that designed and built the chapter houses at Univ. of Florida and Univ. of South Carolina.
Happy to report that one of our local girls pledged Gamma Phi Beta and she is thrilled - saw her photo and it made me smile from ear to ear!
We had three other local girls rushing at Bama (that we know of!):
one went DG, one went DZ,and no word yet on #4.....
Whoops! This must be where I post it! My rec. girl went Gamma Phi Beta at Alabama! Congrats to her and congrats to Gamma Phi Beta for getting such a lovely lady as a new sister!
The chapter's recruitment theme was philanthropy. The chapter not only had the entire previous pledge class visit and tour St. Jude Hospital, but also they raised $113,000 to help cure cancer. It was especially meaningful as one of the active members is receiving cancer treatment at St. Jude Hospital.
I gotta say it: Those are ginormous NM classes - holy cow! (I'm coming from a Northeast campus where total was (and I believe still is) 80 and quota is normally 30ish.)
Congrats to all the Bama NMs!

Only those who risk going too far, find out how far they can go.

As much as I hate those fugly baggy tank tops...wasn't it stinking hot alternating with torrential rain all during rush? And parties kept getting added and cancelled and rescheduled? After that ordeal, they'd be lucky to get me with clothes on, period.
I think TDS's complaint is not with dressing casually, more with the style that's in now.
