I would like to wish everyone the best of luck as they navigate the next week!

I'm blown away by the Tik Toks of work week. Holy cow- they even themes for each day of work week and the collegians have specially made costumes for each day. Mind boggling! Our campus went to no frills rush decades ago - no decor, no food, etc. And these girls are even doing frills for work week! It's such a different world.

Ironically I consider all the tik tok dances the new version of skits from yesteryear.

I have seen PNMs showing their rush bags, and will probably start seeing outfits pop up ad the rounds go on.

Does anyone know why big schools like Auburn and Bama have split sisterhood and philanthropy into so many days?

volume. fire code. ratio of sisters to pnms.

Exactly...not enough time in the day to run 2500 women thru 18 houses with hour long parties.

My daughter is at another SEC school - sophomore doing work week. It's been brutal! Its 10-12 hours every day. They were supposed to have tomorrow off - but they added another day.

I've had to buy granny outfits, reality star outfits, and color-coordinated outfits. It's 112 degrees, I hope the outfits are helping. She fell asleep during dinner Wednesday night.

She told me at this point she expects recruitment to be less stressful.

Yes, the dances are fascinating too.

They are showing the OOTDs today!

If anyone is interested, UA PHC is posting the door chants for various houses.

Work is seriously interfering with my #bamarushtok scrolling

I've seen jokes that people are catching up during their breaks!

Not to steer the topic too far but I love the eras tour inspired philanthropy shirts!

Thankfully I worked from home today but tomorrow I can't :(

I love seeing the door chants!

Are they still doing door stacks? Per the NPC MOI, these are no longer permitted.

They're still going strong at several schools. I think they're a ton of fun and secretly a way to get your nerves out.
