I was up at UGA helping out at the Gamma Phi beta house (with Houstonchica -- Andrea -- and a collegiate Gamma Phi named Jamie from Rome GA who knows Carnation) -- there are about 1300 girls going thru rush and quota is expected to be about 62.
Anyone on GC care to post their rush story -- from either side? Feed our hunger ladies!!!
On the way to the house, I drove down Milledge (in that ever-frustrating pursuit for a legal parking spot - lol!) and all the rushees were just leaving the various houses from their first parties -- there were 12 that day!!
All the girls looked so adorable and YOUNG!!!! There were approx 750 girls at the Gamma Phi house thru the day, which was sundress day -- the girls all looked so cute -- I felt like such an old fuddy-duddy!
And the university Greek Life office uses city buses to transport to girls from house to house!!! I was amused to see - instead of the street destination of the particular bus above the drivers window - the words Panhellenic Rush that alternately flashed on the sign!!!
I was thrilled that the daughter of my pledge sister is still on the Gamma Phi list as well as four of the local girls I wrote recs on! I wish I lived closer to Athens as I am sure I would be one of those pesty alums who hangs out at the house all daY LOL!
It is really exciting to be able to help out -- I was helping with vote counting and in the kitchen and cleaning up and taking out trash and tying ribbons on the lemonade glasses -- anywhere they needed help!
Wish I could be there for the rest of the week. Today was skit day, Prefs are tomorrow and Bid day is Mon.
