Round 1
Round 1 was last night and I was only able to talk to my sister for about 2 minutes this afternoon. Here's how she ranked the houses last night:
1. Kyan - She said, "I absolutely love Kyan. I talked to a gazillion of them last night."
2. Jai - She said, "I had a good night at Jai so they're back in the top"
3. Carson
4. Thom
5. Ted
I'll talk to her some more tonight and get the rest of the details. She's having so much fun! 
Round 2 is tomorrow night.

Good luck to your sister, I'm glad she's having fun! I pretty much hated formal recruitment and am not sure if I was having fun or not, but it certainly is always an exciting time. I hope she continues to have fun throughout!!!

Okay, I got some more details from her tonight.
Ted - Meet a lot of girls, but felt awkward. A lot of stalled conversation.
Carson - Really cute movie night theme. Didn't talk to as many people as she wanted to.
Kyan - Talked to a lot of people. Really cute interactive theme to get to meet people. One person that she met introduced her to lots of people. Everyone rememebered her name and she felt really comfortable.
Thom - Kind of boring theme. Not much else to say.
Jai - The sisters sang a song when the PNMs came in, and it was really fun. Realized that she knew a lot of girls from her old major. Felt really comfortable. Much better than last week.
I won't have another update until Thursday (since Project Runway and Lost are on TV tomorrow night  ).

Reason: I initially wrote "Ted" instead of "Jai." Code names are tricky!

Oops... I spend 9 hours a day on my computer for work... Too much computer time!
The 2nd "Ted" is Jai. I'll make the edit now.

Good News and Bad News
First, the bad news: My sister was dropped from 4 houses. 
The good news? She was invited back to Kyan, her #1 choice!
She also had a really good reaction to getting cut so heavily. Although she was surprised she wasn't invited back to Jai, she was still very happy to go back to Kyan.
Honestly, I think I was more upset that she was. I don't have any particular connection to any of the other houses, but I just wanted her to have as many options as possible.
Anyway, she had a really good time at Kyan last night. She got to know a lot more about the house and she's really excited about it.
Preference is tomorrow night.

Well, my sister and I are going hind of crazy b/c a friend of her's who was also going through recruitment got The Call from the coordinator of Greek Life. The friend was invited back to two houses on Wednesday (including Kyan) and was dropped by both today.

Well, I just heard back from my sister (she IMed me about her friend while I was at lunch and then she had left for class when I got back)... Her friend got The Call this morning and Pref is in two hours, so I think my sister is okay.
