Why are there 2 months between the first 2 rounds?
Also, I thought I heard that *someone* is recolonizing....will that be part of formal recruitment or will they likely COB?

YAY! An IU story!
IIRC I think the wait is for grades to come in, since you have to have a certain GPA to pledge.

There are several schools who have spring/winter recruitment who have "fall parties" or "fall previews" as their open houses - you have to remember that spring/winter recrutiment requires girls to come back from the holiday break about a week early which can be a big deterrent for some. I think having the first rounds in the fall gets PNMs excited about Greek life and gives them a reason to WANT to come back from the break early.
But yes, it is a tease - especially because you'll have 2 months of seeing all of the members around campus in their letters and desperately waiting for January!

When do you find out what your 12-party invites were? Only after coming back to campus in January?

Ohio State has open houses in the fall, then formal in the winter. Although, you visit each house (14) when formal begins in January

I think I know who is recolonizing...since there is only one house who used to be here and isn't anymore (their house is now the office of admissions...). Can you PM me who it is?

that is ok. IU = Indiana University UI= University of Illinois UofI= University of Iowa (or at least that is how I was taught it after living in each state). Of course I went to Indiana University as well! (The 'rents live in B'ton)

Kinda late on this, but IU has deferred rush not only because of the grades, but because they want the women to get a full semester's worth of experience without the greek system.
