What houses did you pref?

[tericee]

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.

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!

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.

I preffed at Sigma Kappa, Pi Beta Phi, and Alpha Xi Delta... and actually, quite a few girls in my pledge class did the same.

I went through COB and only ended up going to SK. I had a great connection with them and sat on the couch talking to a few of the girls for about three hours, which was well after COB ended. We had a great time and they offered me a bid on the spot. I don't regret for a second not going to any other houses.

I COB'd Sigma Kappa only...didn't need to look any further

[SigKapSweetie]

I preffed Sigma Kappa, Pi Beta Phi, and Phi Mu. I agonized over whether to put SK or Pi Phi first, since I had friends in Pi Phi and didn't know anyone in SK, but I got my first choice and I haven't regretted my decision for a second. I also have a funny story about why I dropped AOPi before prefs, if anyone's interested.

I'm interested! PM me the story b/c we don't want to start any unnecessary drama.

[purplewindex]

Yeah, I want to know, too!

[BetteDavisEyes]

That is too funny!

[BaylorBean]

Oh I want to be in the know!
