3) if you wear a strapless dress, make sure it fits you up top. not attractive to see so many people tugging on the their dresses. Also, please wear the proper bra with said dresses.
4) if you are wearing a light colored skirt/dress, keep in mind the color of your undergarments. Flesh toned probably would work best.
I am so stealing this and sharing with every one of my Recruitment Advisers and VPMRs.

I'm a member of a GLO at Oklahoma State and had the privilege to go to the Colonization Ceremony. It was beautiful! The hall it took place in was PACKED with people...parents, friends, AOIIs from nearby chapters and just about all of Panhellenic and IFC was there. Everyone is truly glad and excited to have yall join the OSU family! Here are some pictures from bid day that morning and from the ceremony later in the day that I gathered from various friends of mine.


Gamma Chis ready to pass out bid day goodies!


First New Member!


The back of the shirts say "The OSU family just got a little bigger!"


All the girls together.


The audience socializing before the ceremony.

Panhellenic Executives wore these shirts the week before recruitment, and I thought they were so cute, since they incorporate the schools logo, so I just had to show them too!

We appreciate all the support your community has shown us in this process. It is truly been amazing! I think the OSU Greek Community is a model for how to ensure a successful colonization. Why open for expansion then fight the new group? You guys are awesome!

Ditto! As an AOII Network Volunteer, I've gotten so many updates on our new colony and it's been a joy to see the support and enthusiasm from the Oklahoma State Community. Even the brand new AOII wooden letters in the bid day picture above were a gift from the OSU Panhellenic. Even Pistol Pete stopped by Bid Day to show support. AOII is so glad to be part of the OSU Greek Community!

Delta Xi's numbers grew a bit more tonight from CR! I'm so excited I just had to get it out, but I'll get back to you with numbers after I verify how many girls accepted their bids.
