I tried to look on the UGA website this afternoon to see if they had ANY info and there's a message that the site has been taken down (or something to that effect). Just Panhellenic, IFC is fine.

Phi Mu made quota. I don't know if they got any girls over quota, but I know that they made quota.

Do we know what quota was a Bama?

gphib_95 · #**172** 08-22-2005, 05:57 PM

The numbers for Bama are a little misleading because alot of sororities did not have all of their girls show up after recieving their bids. One sorority we counted had 36 new members another 34 and one sorority I know had 20 girls not show up. This never happens at Bama! Gamma Phi had 31 and that is before snap bids. All the above numbers will change as the week progresses.

Wait. Why would all the new girls not show up after receiving bids? Does that mean they weren't accepting the bids?

Re: BAMA
I think that happens sometimes. Girls get a bid to XYZ sorority and they decide not to go for whatever reasons. It seems a bit odd though that it would be more than like 1 or 2 girls for a few houses. More than that and there is a serious problem with the system. (Just my thoughts).

I've heard of this happening at a few schools because girls did not understand that when you list sororities after prefs, you are listing only the chapters from which you will accept a bid (they thought you get to decide whether or not to accept when the bid was offered). RCs need to make sure this is clear to the young ladies going through recruitment so that this does not happen in the future... think of the girls who may really want a bid from XYZ who don't get one because the spot is filled by someone who isn't planning to show up at all!

We did use new release figures this year. It is VERY unusual for this many girls to not except bids.

aopirose · #**177** 08-22-2005, 06:47 PM

If the numbers are as messed up as suggested, the situation sounds really odd; especially since the names of the new women have already been released. http://uanews.ua.edu/anews2005/aug05/sorority082105.htm

gphib_95 · #**178** 08-22-2005, 09:01 PM

We had one girl that did not show up on bid day and her name is listed in the article.

A side note. Joe Namath's daughter went ADTT at Bama!

AUDeltaGam · #**179** 08-22-2005, 09:17 PM

Is SDT not participating in formal recruitment at Bama?

gphib_95 · #**180** 08-22-2005, 09:40 PM

SDT participated in the first round of rush. They also had a tent set up on sorority row that PNM could go to and relax in-between parties. There, members could chat with any girls that were interested. I'm not sure how many girls they got. I know that they are renting their house to Beta Theta Pi fraternity right now.
