2015 UGA Recruitment

So what you're basically saying is that whatever letters she had didn't belong to a "good" sorority in your standards. Considering every sorority at UGA is exceptional that is extremely rude to say and inaccurate.

Relax. It's impossible to go through rush and not form an opinion of each house, whether it's justified/accurate or not. We're judging the PNMs, and they're judging us right back.

I went through at UGA in the 90s, and there was one house where, I kid you not, every sister I talked to had exceptionally thick eyebrows - think Brooke Shields, not Frida Kahlo. So for the remainder of my time in college, any time I saw those letters, I would immediately check their eyebrows. They may have had some thin-browed girls, but I never met one.

I think the fact that Sparkles found a home speaks to the inclusive nature of the Greek System at UGA. But it's likely that some houses would try to tame her, and others would let Sparkles be Sparkles.

Ha... ha... ha... ha... BraveMaroon-- I think I know what house that was! I think My best friend in HS pledged there (and yes she had THOSE eyebrows)-- I went to visit one weekend and every time I met another sister all I could think was OMG they ALL have the exact freaking eyebrows!!!!! ha ha ha.... It was distracting...

Now THAT'S a composite I'd like to see!

That's correct. I meant perfect more in the way that every house is pretty equal in terms of looks, involvement, etc.

I actually took it to mean that there was a sorority at that time known for wearing lots of pink or sparkly stuff!!!

Friend's DD who had 4.0 and strong resume was thrilled to have a full list this morning. In her dorm another pnm has eight to visit today.

For some reason, I know a bunch who had 8. The groups were told that cuts would be heavy and that 8 would be good!

Photos of women taking part in sorority recruitment can be found on Spotted OnlineAthens. Images are posted each day of women on the buses, walking to meetings and recruitment counselors in their bright outfits.

Bids go out at 6 pm! I am Alum Financial Adviser for the chapter there but have no idea how things have gone...not a whisper. I hope all the PNMs find their home!
