I am so excited to follow this thread this year as a mom of an active instead of a PNM. (I'm hoping it will be less stressful. Although, I'm just now starting to understand how incredibly hard the sororities at Ole Miss work on their recruitment.)
Anyway...for any PNM's for 2013, I have to say that the ladies of GreekChat provide amazing insight and advice. They are a fabulous resource. Use them wisely. :) |

Congratulations to Alpha Delta Pi! Just out of curious what has been decided about a location for a house for you? Remodel the old or a new house? I remember somewhere that reading there were lots across from some of the houses near the dorms.
|
The new lot is supposed to be located across from the Theta House. This site will destroy some parking that I do not expect the University will replace. See this map:

Hello! Parents of an Ole Miss PNM checking in with 2 quick questions. 1) Does UM have a Panhellenic preview weekend like the one at UA? and 2) Have dates for the other parties been set? Isn't there somewhat of a lag between ice water teas and other rounds?

Ole Miss does not currently have a preview weekend like UA, but Greek Life in the past has had a table at orientation sessions for Freshmen and parents. Greek Life (link in first post) invites parents with questions to call their office. There is interest among the Chapters in having some kind of preview but no definite plans at this time. 2) Have dates for the other parties been set? Isn't there somewhat of a lag between ice water teas and other rounds? School just resumed last week (January 22), and Panhellenic has only tentative dates at the moment. Due to the fact that Recruitment occurs during Football Season, the party schedule cannot be finalized prior to the setting of the Football Schedule. Still, the schedule should be available soon, however it may be subject to changes after the date it’s announced like the Fall 2012 schedule was when an additional day of Philanthropy Parties was announced. Finally, welcome to Ole Miss! Hotty Toddy! <meta name="keywords" content="University of Mississippi - Ole Miss,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss greek life,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss summary,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss fraternity reviews,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss sorority reviews,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss greek life, summary, college life, prominent students, chat, school news, events, greek chat"/> |

As you shop for your Fall wardrobe, be sure to pick up cute dresses in these colors as well as attractive boots that can handle mud/water for The Grove. <meta name="keywords" content="University of Mississippi - Ole Miss,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss greek life,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss summary,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss fraternity reviews,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss sorority reviews,University of Mississippi - Ole Miss greek life, summary, college life, prominent students, chat, school news, events, greek chat"/> |
Would it be a fair guess then that recruitment may be the week of September 15-22?
|
It will fall across a week ending in an away game or an open date. Last year bid day was the day of the Ole Miss v Tulane game in New Orleans, which led me to, "What were they [Panhellenic] thinking?" New Orleans is a treat.

Next question (and my thanks for the information so far)! My daughter has lined up 2 recs per house, but is fortunate to have additional ladies asking to help her. We have gotten the impression that more is not necessarily better in this case and that it becomes a burden on the chapters to get flooded with mail for each girl. I know this topic is debated a good bit on this site, but specifically to Ole Miss, what do you think? |

I don't know how well these are received at all campuses -- my understanding is that this can differ from campus/chapter to campus/chapter. I've had a few moms in the past ask me to write a letter of support to my own chapter -- so I'd be interested in MaryPoppins' opinion on this. |
In Delta Gamma, letters are treated as recs (or sponsor forms as we call them)....except in Texas. So for Ole Miss, a letter would be treated the same as a rec at the DG house.
