Do they actually go through a recruitment period, and hold initiations?
Were these sororities in any way tied to college sororities (like, the same name, or did they just make up names)
And what happened when they graduated and went to college? Could they join another sorority?
Sorry for the 20 questions. I'm just really curious.

DBS was founded at Columbia Institute, Columbia, Tennessee, on October 1, 1903. In its history DBS has had 54 chapters, mainly in TN, AR, MS, LA, TX. They have a week of recruitment, where they "kidnap" the PNM (with their mothers' cooperation and permission), and spend a week inviting the mothers and the PNM's to activities. Then a Bid Day where invitations are extended to the ones they want to have aas members. Basically, no one is kidnapped who they don't already know they want to bid, but it gives the PNMs a chance to get to know them and see if it is something they want to do.
DBS has a Ritual, Initiation, secret meaning for letters, stuff only members are allowed to know, basically set up just like college orgs, only the girls are high school, and the moms have a much more active role in everything. They also have two formals a year.
DBS is not tied to any college sorority, and you can join any GLO you like at college.
