I believe someone mentioned it earlier, but what's with the tank tops popping up in so many pictures? Is that a trend now?

University of Oregon had their first day of recruitment today (minus orientation).

Here are some pictures of PNMs waiting to go to parties:

WC - Where did you find the U of O recruitment shots and how did you get them up so fast???? No, never mind. Don't tell me. But thank you for putting them up!

Talked to daughter about 5:30 - after she had gotten done with class and as she was trying to quickly shovel down food and get ready. She is exhausted already and they haven't started. I'm kind of feeling sorry for the poor PNM who gets her. She's normally pretty good at this - but I can tell her tank's already on empty and she sputtering. Hopefully she'll rise to the occasion.

Telling you anyway: t_witter. Follow UOFSL
They put up pictures and often they link to chapters twitters. Some chapters put up pictures too. Some chapters are private, others... not so much. T_witter stalking vs facebook stalking

^^^Sidenote: I really don't know how schools do the "all PNMs in the same Go Greek/Panhellenic shirt" thing.

Sometimes clothing was the only way I could remember someone (ex: "you know, the one with the purple sweater!") I don't know what I'd do if every single girl was wearing the same top. lol.

Well there are always accessories, hair/eye color, height, etc.

But honestly it does help you focus more on the PNM herself and not just what she was wearing. Ex: The girl with the grandma from Spain or the girl who tripped up the stairs on her first day of high school. More relevant (and personal) information to remember, IMHO.

The personal stuff is definitely ideal, but it only works if everyone who talked to her found out the same information. Appearance, on the other hand, is evident to everyone (although certainly subject to interpretation :-)).

Accessories can be huge though, especially around Prefs when so many PNMs wear black (or insert color here) dresses. I distinctly remember several of us having a hard time remembering someone until her earrings were brought up- "wait, the girl with those fantastic dangly pink earrings? Oh, I know who you mean!" Accessories can be even more distinct than clothing, albeit usually smaller and therefore more sutble. Usually.

AXOmom · #13 09-29-2011, 03:57 PM

I can see both points. I would think it would be tough since I guess I tend to remember people I meet initially by identifying physical characteristics (Oh, that's the red head who likes to wear those gigantic ear rings, etc.). It hasn't seemed to be a problem for daughter. A night at a time - she can remember who she spoke to and what she thought. By next week, she won't have a clue who she talked to unless their personality really stood out to her (good or bad) or she spoke to them more than once. She'd only remember clothing if it was at the extreme ends of good and bad.

I will say that when she went through rush - she made sure there was some accessory she added to that t-shirt that would stand out (in a good way). Cute earrings, bracelet, sandals type of thing.

Yes, tank tops are trending. I was tailgating a few weeks ago and the college girls were wearing the tank tops and leggings. I was afraid leggings would catch on again....sigh.

Some chapters forbid you from wearing leggings-as-pants with your letters

I think tank tops are wonderful, depending on where your school is. I would be getting a lot more wear out of a tank top than our dark-colored bid day shirts right now, that's for sure.
