Kappa Tau took Quota plus 1 for 21. We also got ALL of our legacies. Phi Mu and Tri Sigma also took quota. No word on Theta Phi or AST.

Sorry this post is so long but I wanted to give you the full update, now that I am consious again after recruitment! Here is the "real" update from my Co-Chapter Adviser and Former CND, The AMAZING Lori Curci-Reed!

Greetings Sisters!!

Just a quick note since I have so many calls and emails...

First of all...a HUGE thank you to each and everyone of you for your love and support this past year!!! We entered the Redevelopment Recruitment process in January...and in nine months the world of Lambda Beta has been turned a bit upside-down and then made right again. It has been an amazing ride...that is sure to continue to be thrilling! Everything I am about to report to you is due to the extraordinary hard work and dedication of both the collegiate women and the alumnae in the area that have dedicated time, energy, and monetary donations to the process. It has been a true show of sisterhood and charity on so many levels!

As you know, this past weekend was Formal Recruitment at CSULB. Approximately 250 women started the process of recruitment and spent time quickly getting to know 7 houses on the campus. In addition to a wonderful group of women in the chapter, we were very fortunate to have recruitment assistance from the lovely ladies of Chi Psi chapter who sent 20 fabulous sisters to help on the first two days of recruitment. Total on the campus is 60...and we had approximately 40 on the floor the first two days. Very cool....

That being said...recruitment completed with Bid Day today. Following are the results as we know them at the moment... (is everyone sitting down?)

Recruitment was amazing...Quota was 30...we extended bids to 25 women...and had 24 accepted!!! This is beyond incredible...we are all in a bit of shock! It is official...this chapter is now 5 times larger than it was only 9 months ago!!!!! SUCCESS!!!!

Four houses extended quota...and two other houses extended 26 bids...but we don't know what the accepts and regrets were for any of the other houses...all we know is our own is 24 accepts!!! We will continue to focus on COR/COB in the weeks/months ahead...but I also hope the chapter has a moment to rest in their laurels just a bit...celebrations!!!

Thank you all for your ongoing assistance in the process! It is nice to see something work! Lambda Beta is celebrating...their light is shining brightly tonight!!!!

Nu Beta Chapter of Ole Miss will begin recruitment next Wednesday, September 22, 2004! There are 798 women signed up for recruitment this year. This is lower than expected since last year there were more than 900. Anyway, Nu Beta is practicing their hearts away and getting prepared for an awesome recruitment! We also have 63 legacies and courtesies going through recruitment! Get excited!

The B Girl · #56 09-14-2004, 08:39 PM

63 legacies and courtesies - WOW!!! That is 8% of the total women going through rush. Good luck to all of you, and may you take all 63!

Just heard from Pi Theta's (Florida International University) Recruitment Advisor that they took 40 new members! Quota was set at 42, they matched 37, snapped 3, and 2 are still pending so hopefully by tomorrow they will be at quota. They are now officially over campus total with 79 beautiful girls!

Also, University of Florida (Gamma Omicron) Quota=56, they took
56+3 =59!!

Congratulations to both chapters.

a little more on pi theta ,,,
at Preferentials the ladies of AOII had the second highest return rate on campus!! In addition, quota was set at 42 and AOII got 40 members, 20 of which were on their first bid list!! They had a Mexican Fiesta party on campus for all the women complete with endless chips & salsa and even a panda pinata---of course it was just decoration as we didn't want them to actually hit the panda.
We still have PC trying to snap bid two additionals, if not, we'll fill those spots easily as the ladies have several women waiting already! They have come so far, from the first year when we had 7 at each pref party to now having 24 and almost getting quota. In addition, we will be over total which is 70 as we currently have 39 members and 40 new ones--so they have doubled the chapter once again.

Zeta Psi (East Carolina) got eighteen beautiful new girls. Quota was set at 19, and we can easily snap bid one more!

Only two sororities out of nine made quota (Chi Omega and Zeta).

We did really great as there were a lot of girls who had graduated
so we only had around 30 actives left for recruitment this year.
