Newtoolemiss: My daughter is a freshman PNM this year, and we are new to Ole Miss as well. From what I have been led to believe, from several alumnae advisors, it that they do in fact have a little pull in deciding who gets a bid, but even more pull in deciding who does NOTget a bid. A negative recommendation is the kiss of death.
My daughter has been advised by more than one alumnae from several different sororities. They all say the same things.
I also know that these same alumnae stalk my daughter on Facebook, twitter and instagram. We see them "liking" and commenting on posts almost everyday. I have heard them tell my daughter to stay away from so and so, and also to hang out with so and so. These ladies all took the time over the summer to meet with my daughter for lunch or dinner. I would say the advisors took the time to seriously get to know my daughter, probably better than any of the active girls in the houses.
While the active girls actually get the final say so, the top sororities listen very closely to their advisors.
At least this is what we are being led to believe from active alumnae advisors who all attended Ole Miss. I can't believe so many ladies would all be saying the same things if things were different.
On another note: We moved my daughter into the dorms last week and all I can say is WOW! Each and every girl we met was beautiful and polished. From the so called top sororities to the so called bottom sororities, they will all get an amazing pledge class this year!
