What houses did you pref?

[Dove Gal]

I pref Sigma Kappa and Phi Sigma Sigma.

My campus had a very small greek system, with only 4 sororities and 4 fraternities. I only knew Zetas, so I was going to pref ZTA through spring recruitment. I had a close friend who was a Lambda Chi (who were tight with SK) and he thought I would fit in better with Sigma Kappa. He was right! I hung out with them for awhile, and one day out of the blue they gave me a bid card... YAY!

SK Only.

Back in the Big Hair 80's almost all my pledge class of 26 went to only ONE pref. I was asked back to SK, ADPi and ChiO and could have gone to two. I ditched ChiO with a regret and gave the boot to ADPi, as they were our arch-enemy!

Gamma Phi had & still has an AWSOME Pref Party!

[sigkaptaryn07]

i preffed ADPi and Sigma Kappa. after that i listed adpi as my number 1 and sk my number 2. i wanted to be adpi soo bad. when i opened my bid card i cried when i saw sigma kappa's letters at the top. i almost didnt even go to the bid day party. but i did go. and thank the holy heaven's i did. i have never been so happy to not get my way! i love my sisters more than anything!

KelYel, I'm glad there's another 80's chick on this board!!

I preffed Alpha Chi Omega, but I was a senior and I just couldn't go through with it; it seems silly almost twenty years later, but I didn't want to pledge with a bunch of girls three years younger than me.

So I waited for the founding of the Sigma Kappa colony and pleged with 10 other seniors, as well as a bunch of juniors, sophomores, AND freshmen.

And to this day, our composite is known as the "big hair" composite. The current collegians are embarrassed to display it in the house, so they take it down unless the founders are visiting.

there is nothing wrong with big hair.. i'm sure in 20 years people will be looking at my composite and thinking we were the idiots who abused flat irons!! the times will always change, but why they refuse to hang it in the house is beyond me.. i mean we always hang the current composite above our fireplace, but all the rest of the composites from years past hang proudly on the wall going up the two flights of stairs to the attic!! our problem is stopping boys from stealing them.. in my opinion they like the "big hair" composites best!!

I prefed DG, Sigma Kappa, and ADPi. I ranked SK first and DG second. I didn't rank ADPi because I was prefed by a girl who I hadn't previously met. It wasn't exactly magical having the "what's your major" conversation on pref night.

Gamma Phi (NCSU-Raleigh, NC) just hung the 1960-1976 composites in the upper hallway. Those are the pic's of PNM mom's and a few current sisters mom's and aunt's. They love the history and the 'looks' from those years.

Go Gamma Phi!!

I dropped out of fall recruitment b/c I didn't think I could devote the necessary time needed and after Day 1, I honestly felt that I didn't belong in any of the houses that participated in fall rush.

I later learned that SK & AOPi were going to have spring recruitment so I inquired about it but heard from SK first. I was invited to the house 1 week after the end of formal rush & spent a lot of time with them. I ended up getting a bid & joining the fall pledge class. I loved every minute of my time there.

How funny. During my time at the house, we proudly displayed our Big Hair sisters b/c it's great to see the progression of ladies throughout the years. From Big Hair to other weird hairdo's of the 90's & today. I still get a kick out of the sister that gave herself a home perm (or so rumor had it) & took the composite pic w/semi-orange hair b/c it couldn't be fixed & she was on EC.

Hopefully the Theta Lambdas will advance to that way of thinking!

My first and only choice was Sigma Kappa. The woman collecting our cards gave me a look, and asked if I was sure, but I nodded and smiled at her.

I went through informal and LOVED AXO. I went to SK's parties to appease a friend of mine, an SK alum that I'd known for 4 years prior. At first I didn't feel a connection there at all, but I didn't get asked back to AXO so I quickly put feelers around for COB with the other sororities. SK got back to me straightaway, and actually delivered my bid to the Greek life office before we went out and got coffee. They REALLY wanted me apparently. I got that bid in time for bid night which was awesome!
At least now I know for sure I ended up in the right house. None of the other chapters would have fit me.

lol, it's a generic enough title that everyone looks I think
