Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't a PNM theoretically get multiple bids in a COB situation?

ETA: I'm clearly really slow at typing tonight, or my internet connection sucks. Now I'm just waiting for someone to announce they know which school the OP goes to

Yeah and that appears to be what the OP is talking about. A semi-structured/informal COB period.

If it is the school I think it is, with the way people described the process last year it seemed like an invite driven COB but under a sort of informal umbrella. The first event was all the chapters being represented in a big meeting room and then later pnms receiving invites to a series of parties from chapters that continued to be interested in them until a set deadline where all parties had to have ended and bids had to have been given out.

I like the whole tan dress better the white trimmed one.

Also please do not wear tights - these are too summery for that, at least they look like they are.

Thanks Drolefille...I guess I'm about 45 seconds too slow on my posts tonight. Oh well, it's either post slowly or post with typos!

^^No, she was just curious because your school used a different structure than others do.

all right, OP, you asked: is the dress style you posted something that is worn by everyone else? In other words, it won't look out of season or out of place?

Dang, where's ellebud?

Well the dress I was thinking about wearing is just the style on the left- but it is completely grey with tiny black polka dots so no white anywhere. I would probably wear a little black sweater or something as well if everyone thinks thats showing too much skin since its like a "vintage halter" dress.
I was just considering tights/pantyhose since it will probably be cold out but I am not too sure how it would look with this dress

i don't like the dress on the left-it looks sort of costumey to me. it also looks summery and colored tights would not look right with it.

maybe you could find a dress in the style of the one on the right-that's a nice dress.

I agree. I think you'd stand out, but not in a good way. Especially in the SEC. But just my opinion.

Okay, so the first night, you have a chance to meet with all of the sororities? Are they just giving presentations and stuff, or do you talk to the girls one-on-one, or what?

I think that you should be totally up-front, and say that you rushed last year, decided you weren't ready to pledge, and are now ready. Ideally, you should have some supporting info as to why that is. If a chapter gave you a bid last year, you better believe they remember you, and they will want to know from the get-go why they should spend time on you again.
