Congrats to your daughter and Phi Mu!

oh, I forgot- one friend went Phi Mu, another went DZ, and her roommate and another friend went Tri Delta.

For graduation we went on a cruise with a group of students from a neighboring town. Almost every girl from that cruise went Phi Mu. My daughter is not sure how she feels about that. She is glad to have a base of people she knows but kinda wanted to branch out a little. Hopefully she will keep those friends but not rely to much on them. We are from a avery small town and school and part of the reason I wanted her to join a sorority was so that she could meet people who might be a little different from her and from different places etc.

Tootiepie,

Please pass on my best wishes to your new Phi Mu! We are sisters!
And she is going to love her sorority experience! Great times ahead.

Although some chapters draw heavily from certain regions of the state, I am positive that each chapter has out-of-staters...probably more than you would guess.

I am so very happy for you. Phi Mu has a GREAT chapter at LSU but everyone has a great chapter at LSU. It's always a party in Louisiana.

How interesting to find this thread. Spent the day with an Alpha Gam that lives in BR; her dau was a Zeta at LSU.

Maybe Alpha Gam will go back on campus!

I agree with you, Just Interested!

The key is to stay in the hunt and happily grab the bid you are given.
The chapters are all thriving and have much to offer.

Congrats to all of the actives and the new members!

As I walked down the row I was so impressed by all the sororities. They all had such beautiful girls who looked like they were having so much fun. It makes me want to be 18 all over!!!

Congratulations! I know you and your daughter are thrilled. My closest cousin was a Phi Mu! I hope she has a great time the next four years.

Congrats to your daughter! Phi Mu did great this year! All but 2 sororities made quota, and I believe Phi Mu and KD had the most girls put them first on their cards, so she's joining an excellent chapter. Quota was 71, by the way.

Yay! It's always amazing to add another one to the fold! Whoo Hoo for my new sister!

Congrats to your daughter and PHI MU! Also congrats to her friends that got bids

Does anyone know if a bid list is traditionally posted? I have a girl I know through my famil who went through, and I'm curious to know where she pledged.

AnchorAlumna · #58 08-23-2009, 01:39 AM

I've never seen an LSU bid list posted.

aopirose · #59 08-23-2009, 02:15 PM

AnchoraAlumna is correct. LSU does not traditionally post a bid list like Auburn and Alabama. Greek Affairs does/did do a press release to The Advocate and all of the NPCs were included. However, in recent years, not all of the chapters have given permission to print their lists so only maybe 5 or 6 chapters will appear.

I was a little surprised to hear the discussion about how many pledges put a sorority first on their cards - I did not know that information was available to the sororities. I would have that it was a little like knowing where you were on the bid list. Information that leads to hurt feelings.
