Great news!!

Me too! I left my house right after I posted earlier and just got home and was thrilled to hear that the rumors were true! What a great recruitment! Congrats to everyone!
*edit* I just noticed that 2 of the ladies I wrote recs for got bids! One went to ADPi (she was a legacy of this chapter) and one went to Gamma Phi Beta!

Hey I'm just back from a day with my daughter in Auburn.
Congrats to all the groups and their new sisters!
My daughter was a little sad I could tell no matter what she said but I came in and took her to lunch and then to Simply Charming for some retail therapy - first smile of the day I got out of her was in there, imagine that!
There was a big storm around 4:00 with heavy rains, lightning and even some small hail - I thought about the girls and their families and the parking situation at AU being what it is there is no way around having to walk a long way wherever you go. It was raining so hard we sat in the car and waited a while for it to slack before going in to the grocery store - plus I wanted to kill as much time as possible to be sure her roommates (who both got bids) were gone so she wouldn't have to be there for that.
On my way home she texted me about how one of her roommates came in with all her cute letter stuff and she said her family was trying to make her feel better so it was a hard day for her but thankfully classes begin Monday and she'll be able to start putting it behind her.

Awww, big hug to your daughter. It must be so hard to see her hurting right now. While many suggest that it will be difficult to find a sorority home through COB, I hope your daughter will consider registering. You just never know. If sorority life isn't meant to be, there are so many other opportunities to get involved with community service, SGA, intramurals and the many clubs at Auburn. Best of luck to her.

Not a fan of rush before school
This is the part I hate about rush that falls before classes begin. Deferred rush seems like such a better idea, for many reasons.

I don't know that it's super hard to find a home with COB; it's just often likely to be the same home a PNM would have found had she stuck it out with the groups on her invite list.
Certainly, if she decides that she wants to be greek, she will have options with COB and with the colony.
Auburn does have a bunch of opportunities, so she'll have a great experience no matter what.
ETA: Last year, there really were some COB opportunities in the spring with more groups that usual. Maybe it will be a trend or maybe it was related to colonization this year.

Just have to jump in here! AuburnMom08 - your daughter's situation is what my daughter experienced last year - Keep hope! I am still in Auburn tonight having assisted with rush and her sorority this year for the whole week - my D received a bid in the Spring last year and could not be happier - everything ended up so great for her and she is so happy so I hope your daughter receives a bid later on and will find her place. I have so much enjoyed watching my daughter give her all this week and flourish! She rushed a girl from our hometown this week and to see her come running to the chapter today to meet my daughter and receive her goodies brought tears to my eyes - It will work out - Please post here with news as it happens!!

If I counted right, there are 8 girls total from the St. Louis area who are on the bid list, and 4 of them are Gamma Phis!! I'm absolutely tickled about that.
Congrats to all involved! AuburnMom08 - best of luck to your daughter in the future, I hope she has a fantastic college experience no matter what.

AuburnPNMmom, I'm so happy to hear that your daughter is having such a great time. Your story was what I thought of when encouraging COB. There is also the very exciting opportunity with KAT.
