Another happy ending....a girl from my hometown. She had a pretty rough time going into Round 3--she was dropped from quite a few of her favorite houses. Then she was released before Prefs However, Monday morning she was offered 3 snap bids and is now a happy new member of Kappa Alpha Theta!

I'm happy to say that for the first time in a long time I've not heard one story of disappointment from the hometown girls. We've had a few rough years lately, especially 2006 when only 4 of 12 received a bid.

Does anyone else hear some serious envy here?

I hope you get your legacy soon, Carnation!

Three chapters snap bidding seems kind of high to me, but maybe I just don't know how common snap bidding is.

Did something go wrong with releases figure calculations this year?

That the usually suspects haven't posted results here kind of seems odd as well.

The quota that was given to me - 54 for undergrads and 6 upperclassmen - was from the Greek Life Office at UGA.

54 and 6 is correct - most houses were sitting on 60 - 61. I think Sigma Kappa took 61.

Congratulations to both you and your daughter! I love being a Tri Delta and I hope your daughter has a wonderful time as well.

Please pass along best wishes to her!
