Welcome OldOlemiss!
And on the subject of recommendations etc., the Chapters are about to begin their Work Weeks very soon. If you do not have your recommendations in, get them in!

Thanks OldOleMiss! Your story was wonderful.
Just one more question on dresses-- for pref, should black dresses be avoided?

Some of the Chapters wear black for Pref, and others have worn white in the past. There is a a chance you might just blend-in. My pref dress was black, but that was also 1982 and I pledged my Legacy Chapter. Use black dresses with caution.

Does anyone remember that fairly recent story about a PNM's mom jumping out of the bushes to take a picture of her daughter's recruitment schedule and--what, did she get hurt?

It's rumor. Bid lists are part of member selection and therefore secret so any information you've heard is therefore rumor and not fact. They may have an idea of a group of girls who they think would be a good fit after lots of preliminary background checking, but I have trouble believing any group would literally have their list finalized in advance. And if there was no need to hold rush, they wouldn't. It's expensive and time consuming and stressful.

Exactly. DubaiSis, I'm so glad you were able to answer that. My energy is gone today.

Any GreekChat Members going to be in town for Fall Formal Recruitment? Let's have Cocktail Hour somewhere.

Sorry. But I will be there on the 14th for Eleanor Slaughter's Fraternity Memorial Service. It's on campus - forget the name of the building. Then a reception at the DG house afterwards. Unfortunately, they scheduled it at 2 PM and the kickoff for the Alabama- Texas A & M game is at 2:30! How dare they not take into consideration? They've promised to set me up in the HD's suite to watch the game during the reception!
