Just talked to my daughter. Parties are supposed to start around 3 central time. She didn't know the reason for the delay though. Surely, the actives will understand when the PNMs come in with damp shirts, squishy sandals and not so perfect hair. Oh, my! Think of the humidity!! Everyone should be....glowing!

how sad is it they dont find out what houses asked them back until RIGHT before they start the visits? sad for the girls that don't get what they wanted and are upset, then have to put on the happy face immediately. girls with late classes are having to run across campus to meet up and go with different groups / gamma chi's....they sure aren't going to look/feel/(smell) their best after that!

That is too bad for the sophomores!
As for grades...each year they seem to be increasingly important. Most houses do not take girls with less than a 3.0/4.0 even though Panhellenic only requires a 2.5. I think that Panhellenic is aware of the different standards that each of the houses have, so it is a shame that a lot of the girls with less than a 3.0 pay all the fees and get released after the first night. If the houses require a 3.0, then Panhellenic should require a 3.0.
