What I'm talking about are organizations that you try out for like Angel Flight (now Silver Wings), War Eagle Girls (the main ambassador group), sports auxiliaries, and leadership honoraries. You had to go through numerous selection procedures like interviews and teas and some groups would have first and second cuts. Usually the groups were top-heavy with women from the older sororities because the old members voted on the new members and they tended to vote for sisters or women in "like" sororities. Hundreds of women would try for 10 or 20 open slots.

This wasn't just at Auburn--this was at all universities I attended and others I've taught at.
