This state has never won Miss America (in all its 93 years!) but Miss Idaho Sarah Downs (Zeta Tau Alpha, Alpha Beta chapter, University of Pennsylvania) has won the Fourpoints Scholarship for reflecting what the Four Points of the Crown represent: Scholarship~Service~Success~and Style. Congratulations!

Miss Idaho has won the Fourpoints award in each of the past three Miss America contests.

Does any ZTA know whether Sarah was in the 2011 recolonization class at Penn? (she's age 23 now)

Is there still a Question from the Judges for the Top Five segment in the televised Miss America Pageant?

Considering 22 of 53 contestants are known to be NPC Greek, there will likely be a question regarding the UA situation (see other long thread elsewhere within GC).

Yet another fun reason to tune-in the pageant ABC TV Sunday evening!

Miss Alabama attends UA and is Greek (ZTA); have TMZ or ET cornered her regarding the issue?

You are right about that! I didn't even think about that. There is a good chance that'll pop up! I hope they are prepped!

Looks like they did not address the UA question, although it was sounding close! Poor Miss FL... she bombed her chance.

If there is a judge picked and that is their question all the women should be able to answer whether their greek or not. The situation is racism that occured within the greek community. Hopefully their pageant coaches are working with them now.

Still rooting on Kansas!

Bumping to remind everyone of tonight's broadcast on ABC-TV. There's a one hour 20/20 Miss America Special tonight just before the pageant, too. Good Luck to all the(NPC Greek and non-Greek) contestants!

I remember when I watched the pageant as a little girl, the contestants would say which college they were a student or alumna of as they introduced themselves. Anyone else remember this? Or am I going crazy?

These group production numbers are so dumb. Didn't see Miss Alabama in that godawful dress.

They don't do the parade of embarrassing state costumes anymore, do they?

Cool that they have 30 former Miss Americas there, but I wish they would have introduced them too!

Miss Kansas is America's Choice.
