Navy Blue
Yellow

Next up... Bid day!!
Best wishes.

On a swerve / sidetrack, I'm glad to see a story with "could be happy at any of them" said after preference. That sounds like a good recruitment experience and an open mind. End sidetrack.

Their location IS awesome. I was a tad jealous that my own house wasn't closer to the quad, but right off the 22 bus route wasn't too bad. Congrats to your sister!

Congrats to your sister!! Color me crazy, but I had a funny feeling she was going to end up a sister of mine! That is a gorgeous chapter house, and I'm glad it was always among her top picks. I know several girls in our Iota chapter-all wonderful, genuinely kind people (many of whom I rec'd-hehehe). She has found a great home for herself!!!!

Congrats to your sister!
I'm so happy it worked out well for her, since she braved FR with 19 chapters and kept an open mind to find her home.
What a happy story.

Sorry for the double post, I'm doing this from my iPod lol Yes, pnms get a notebook that has a page for each sorority. On that page is basic info, like colors, nickname, a pic of the house I think, the philanthropy... Etc. And then there's space for note taking!
