I have been watching videos of prior years bid day videos and crying. I was prepared for this to not work out for her, but so happy that it seems to be. She did list an intentional single preference, as she just did not feel the other was a good match. I don't think it's ethical to list it if you really don't see yourself there...and she felt that was a spot another girl could have/want....so she was prepared to not be greek if that was the case.

NorthernMom yes I agree it is a very strange feeling, not to be there. And I know she will text me or call or send a pic when it is a good time for her, but not sure when that will be as it looks like, from watching the videos, they all run right over to the groups of actives for their new sorority homes. I have cried a fair amount myself this week and I expect I will be in for the real shocker next week when she quits calling home every day. She has always been a very independent kid, yet we've been close and I'm used to hearing about the ups and downs of her days. Even though I know that her growing up and finding other places to process her daily life is natural and expected, I will miss talking to her so much. Oh, being a parent is hard sometimes!

I agree with SunflowerState--wish there was a live feed! I will be looking for youtube uploads this afternoon!
