She got her schedule - 8 parties. Wow! I can breathe again until Friday morning.

Great news! Good luck to her today!

Traveldaughter was invited back to 8 for skit round, and they were her top 8. She is so happy and excited

. I've spent all this time preparing her for the worst but all seems to be going well.

DD was invited back to 7 for skit round...whew! So far, so good.

Congrats to Traveldaughter and Ladybug84's PNM!

That is fabulous for all the girls!

Typically, I'm disinterested in this recruitment other than for Bid Day, but I actually have a couple of Rec girls going through. I know both are still active in recruitment but don't know how many parties they have at this point. One is a legacy of one Bama chapter and one is not a legacy of any chapters. Can't wait for Bid Day.

Does anyone know how SDT did on open house round and the rest of the week so far. I heard they are more active in formal recruitment this year.

DG Illinois · #98 08-14-2013, 01:54 PM

I have a few going through as well. First time ever since I'm in the Midwest, but I know 3 this year. Unfortunately I know zero about how anyone is doing. I would never call during rush, so unless they call me I am in the dark. I know Alabama prints their bid list so I'm hoping to see their names soon. Wishing everyone the best these last few days!

Yay, DG Illinois, and thank you for sending sponsor forms!
I'd love to know what's going on, too...but everything's locked down until bid day.

FWIK, they only participated in the open house (first) rounds, from a room in the stadium, which is right on Colonial Dr. and sorority row.
Apparently they are still there, open to any PNMs who have an "off" time period and want a cool place to rest.

It's great they are involved this year. I wonder what kind of impression they made on pnms

Oh thanks so much! I have to say my girls really did their homework and the packets they sent me were stunning! Seriously monogrammed and colored paper, beautiful pictures etc., they were unbelievable. I wish I knew how they were doing. I would love to be down there...after reading GC I would love to see a SEC recruitment first hand. The alums that help with it are amazing!

My last minute pnm has 4 invites for the next round and got dropped by all but one of her favorites. She is thinking about quitting, but I'm encouraging her to stick with it. Note to future pnms -please prepare for recruitment and get those recs!

Four invites is just fine - in the end, it all comes down to ONE anyway.
Yes, do encourage her to stick with it another go-round at least. Feelings, opinions etc. change daily - heck, even hourly!

So cuts have been pretty hard on everyone here. I know personally I've been disappointed everyday, but I'm trying to keep an open mind. I have two new favorites, but I'm very worried I will be dropped as well as a lot of girls in my Rho Chi group. Are cuts the worst after skit? I heard someone say that, but I don't know if it's reliable information. Wouldn't it be more of pnms dropping houses since we have to pick only three? I'm confused how rfm handles this.
