Auburn University Recruitment - Fall 2010

[TriDeltaSallie]

So happy for all the women who made it through the week and found their home.

And I'm happy for their parents who have lots of fun events to look forward to over the next three or four years.

Congratulations!

Curiouser and curiouser ... I just went to IU's website to see if they had Zeta (they don't) and they don't even have open houses until December and formal rush is in January. At first blush, it seems odd, but I can see some good points to this. As much as I would love for my older S, who starts his freshman year next week, to go Greek (his dad is a Pike), I'd really like for him to wait until next semester. His campus is about as non-competitive as they come, so it wouldn't make a difference one way or another.

Noticed this on the bid list. Wonder if they are triplets?

Caitlin Frenzer Chicago, IL Kappa Kappa Gamma
Beth Frenzer Chicago, IL Kappa Kappa Gamma
Meagan Frenzer Chicago, IL Sigma Kappa

This post has nothing to do with Fall 2010 Auburn Recruitment.

Since when have we let that stop us?

I counted 55 new SKs by my highly unofficial Ctrl+F method. Congrats to everyone involved.

That has to be an interesting dynamic, 2/3 going to one sorority. It makes you wonder what the "tent talk" was like. I'm sure that people were aware of triplets coming through from the beginning. (If they are identical, that is extremely rare!!) I wonder if they were legacies, or if not, if people thought that they were a "package deal" anyway. If they were in different rush groups, I'm sure girls were doing a double-take, trying to remember which one is which.

We had twins on campus, one went SK and the other SDT. People often seemed surprised that they went to different sororities, but as the (bio) sister of identical twins, I didn't see why they necessarily would.

I spoke to Stephanie before she left to be with her new sisters this afternoon. She was thrilled! She told me all about her temporary big sister, all the goodies she had given her (in great detail), how she's a baby turtle, and that she's changing her dorm colors (from black, white and pink) to black white, pink and green.

I'm sad to report that she kindly told me that now that recruitment was over, she thought we should start limiting our calls to once a day. I was sad for a moment...But, after pondering her words, I've decided to be happy that she's making friends and feels comfortable enough to cut me down to once a day.

On another note, my friend has twins going through sorority recruitment at different colleges. I believe one of them begins soon...she's going to Arkansas. I'm going to try to get her to begin posting updates. This was too much fun!

Thanks for all the encouragement and support. You are a sweet community!

^^^ Yes, I thought the triplet 2/3 split was interesting. Not surprising if they went all the same or all different, but the 2/3 is a different dynamic.

To all of the parents and rec writers of Auburn PNMs who posted on this thread..... Congrats to your girls, and congrats to you for your great attitudes!! It was such a pleasure to hear from interested, concerned, yet SANE parents. Your lovely daughters are in for a wonderful year!
