sorry to intrude. but, wouldnt it be better for someone to call and tell you that you didnt get a bid?

what if someone called but you never got the message and you show up thinking they were going to offer you a bid? that would be more embarrassing i think.

good luck!

At my school, PNMs were not called ahead of time. We distributed bids by having the rho chi take each member of her group aside individually and give her her bid or tell her that she didn't get one. And a bidless PNM would then have to walk out, past the other waiting PNMs, usually crying. Same thing for invites.

ohdollface, hope you don't get the dreaded phone call.

The girls know when they will be getting the phone call and,as far as my school went, noone left their room just in case.


GOOD LUCK!!!!

yep, same here. Even when girls were going to the bathroom, they handed their portable phone or mobile to someone else...just in case. it was HORRIBLE when I went through rush and got the phone call. I even expected it and it sucked. I was glad that we got calls as opposed to told in person.


(PS, PNMs, Rho Chis get realllllllyyyy cranky when you don't give us a phone number you actually use...just a helpful hint. )

When I rushed, we had to wait in our rooms and hope we didn't get "the call". Thing is, everyone on my floor was an upperclassman so we knew the chances of the phone ringing were higher than usual.

The phone rang at the end of the hall. We all screamed and no one wanted to answer it. Finally someone did and our counselor chirped, "You all got bids! Just thought you'd want to know!"

We were torn between joy and killing her because we'd been told that a phone call meant someone wasn't getting a bid.

IT'S BID DAY!!!

Okay ladies! So I didn't get a phone call... (although my roomie kept calling my phone to freak me out)

First I'd like to reveal the sororities:

HAAGAN DAZS= Sigma Sigma Sigma

EDY'S= Kappa Delta

BEN & JERRY= Alpha Sigma Alpha

CARVEL= Alpha Chi Omega

I only put one sorority on my Pref Card... and am now a proud new member of KAPPA DELTA SORORITY

I was told in person, and honestly I think my rho sigma was more upset than I was.


CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Congratulations to you, ohyoudollface, and to Kappa Delta!!!!









We had to wait for the dreaded phone call, then stand in line to talk to the Greek Advisor one on one. Someone would go down the line of people with a clipboard and ask for your name, and I know one woman was asked to go to another room. I don't think she got a bid.
