DG Colony Rush at Auburn!

AUDeltaGam · #1 02-04-2003, 08:04 PM

As many of you know, Delta Gamma is colonizing at Auburn, and it begins TOMMOROW!!!!! So, I am starting my very own rush thread!

A little about myself: I am a sophomore majoring in Human Development and Family Studies. I would be the first in my immediate family to be greek, though my aunt is an Alpha Epsilon Phi! The schedule for recruitment is:

Feb 5- Open House at 7:30
Feb 6- One on one interviews
Feb 7- Preference
Feb 8- BID DAY!!!!!!

I am nervous, but so very excited!! I think this is an amazing opportunity not only for me, but Auburn Panhellenic and other girls wanting to experience Greek Life!!

Any advice and words of encouragement will be well appreciated!! And I will be sure to keep everyone up to date!

Go DELTA GAMMA!!!!

WAAAAAAAAR EAGLE!

greek love and mine,
Laura

Best of Luck PSPGgirl,

I have a few friends in GLO's at AU. I really admire the stregnth of their Greek System. With your enthusiasm, you should fit in perfectly...

I am always excited for colonies having been in one myself. I think I heard that 1% of greeks are founders so it's an elite company you'll find yourself in.

Good luck!

Wow Laura! We are finally here! We have waited a very long time for this! Best of luck! I agree with KTSnake, it's so special to get to colonize a chapter! I had a blast doing it and I really do hope you have the same fun during your recruitment!! Can't wait to hear how it goes tonight!

DG Love and Mine,
CJ

I think I am even more in love with Delta Gamma!!! All the Delta Gammas there were INCREDIBLE!!! There was even an alumna from Delta Sigma (the original Auburn chapter)! What a wonderful, amazing group of women!! When one woman was talking about what DG meant to her, and how it became a home to her, I got chills! I could have cried right there! The preference ceremony will be performed by the ladies from Mississippi State, and I am hoping to be invited! My interview is tommorow at 9am, and I can't wait! Wish me luck!!

Edited to add: I think there were around 150ish girls there, but I am bad on estimating people!

I think the interview went great! The woman I talked to was just so sweet! Her son is an only child, and I am an only child, so we talked about that! And the joys of shopping

She asked me what I could bring to DG, and why I wanted to be a DG! 190 girls are signed up to interview today. Campus total is 191, so Delta Gam is probably going to offer around 120 bids. Preference invites will be given out between 9 and 12 tommorow morning, and preference is that night!! Now I can't wait for tommorow!!

Oh, I wore camel colored pants, a black sweater and black boots

so much greek love,
Laura

Laura! I'm so happy the interview went well! Sounds like you did a great job! Just think, in a few days this will be all over and you'll be able to relax! I hope it's over with a happy ending. Let us know as soon as you do if you will be attending a preferance party tomorrow night!

DG Love,
CJ
