Actually, 33girl, I have sat in the room - many times. I've been a membership adviser (our name for recruitment adviser), the UAB PH Adviser, a chapter PH adviser, an Advisory Board Chairman (main chapter adviser), a Collegiate Recruitment Consultant, a Regional Recruitment consultant, etc, etc, etc. If you don't already have that list going, you are doing yourself and the chapter a disservice.

I don't mean you, I mean the poster I responded to. She gave no indication that she is a volunteer of any sort, it sounded more like rumor and innuendo.

Not only that, I've never heard you say you know what is going on in your daughter's sorority (of which you are not a member).

Sorry if I seem like a dog with a bone on this one, I just think that this is one more thing to make PNMs nervous and upset.

Ladies, discussion of Membership Selection business is considered either internal business or ritual by some GLO's traditionally it is not discussed in GreekChat threads. If you insist on discussing such matters or if war breaks out, the thread will be at risk for being locked and/or deleted. And just because someone has personal knowledge of what goes on behind closed doors on another campus or a GLO not chartered at Ole Miss, does not mean they are knowledgeable about what happens at Ole Miss. Please keep this to Ole Miss matters and Ole Miss information.

Yes, I am indeed testy today, as I had to prepare for today's trial which always makes me less tolerant of folks who don't get polite subtle hints. THIS ^^^ is your less subtle hint.

I heard from an Ole Miss active today that a little over 1600 girls are registered and they expect a total of 1800 to be registered by the deadline. Is that true? Wouldn't that make quota 200 if all girls attended pref parties? I know Ole Miss is competitive but geez...

It's a little over 1200 as of yesterday according to my inside source.

Not everyone who starts rush will make it to pref. Not everyone who goes through recruitment will get a bid.

Check Here Back For Updates (to this post and additions to the thread.)

Registration for Fall Formal Recruitment (Sorority Rush) - Panhellenic Recruitment Registration Opens on May 15, 2013 and closes on September 9, 2013.


Ice Water Teas - Sunday, September 8, 2013 [THIS IS A NEW DATE!]

C.A.R.E. Walk - Friday, September 26, 2013 - an annual event hosted by the Panhellenic Council for which the proceeds benefit breast cancer research.

Panhellenic Convocation - Sunday, September 29, 2013

Recruitment Week - Monday, September 30 to Sunday 6, 2013

There is no minimum grade to participate but potential new members should know that virtually all of the Chapters on campus require a 3.0 GPA (as a minimum, if not more) to carry the PNM through to Preference Party.



This is a competitive recruitment campus and Letters of Reference and Recommendations should be considered to be necessary. Some folks suggest two recs per Chapter as a minimum.

I don't know how it is done these days but many moons ago when I went through we were divided by last names. One of my dearest friends and I still laugh about how our names were 2 letters off of each other so we met first during orientation, again in rush groups and then ended up pledging the same house- we were "destined" to be sisters...

The Annual C.A.R.E. Walk is Thursday, September 26. Pnm13, thank you so much for catching that typo! As everyone knows Mary Poppins may be exceptional but is only "practically perfect."
