The big problem: she loves them all. I think she will have a hard decision to make at the end of the day. Does anyone know what time the bids are handed out tomorrow?
Sunflower state congrats to your niece! How wonderful! She is going to be happy whatever happens. As I understand it the bid day ceremony begins on the quad at noon. Not sure exactly how soon after it starts they start ripping open the envelopes. Would love to see pictures on here tomorrow!

I've been chatting away on another Mizzou topic but in case anyone looks here, just wanted to say that my niece pledged KKG.

I always hate it when people don't finish their rush stories!

Ahh.. Lovespink88 - I'm an APhi (not Mizzou) so I was hoping for that result but she had to go (and should go) where she wanted to go. Congrats to your cousin!

I got some info about Mizzou- nearly 2000 women went through recruitment, but several hundred withdrew during the week.
Of the women who were not matched on Bid Day, a lot of them "suicided" houses, thus, making their chances of getting matched smaller.

It is sad that women drop out of recruitment because they enter it with the mindset "Im going to be an XYZ and ONLY an XYZ". However- with Quota being 90- I think there are a lot of wonderful women who have found their home at Mizzou!
