University of Texas daughter's '11 recruitment
Yes, we're still 3 1/2 weeks away from the first day of Rush (Aug. 17), but I decided to go ahead and put up the code I'll be using. When the time comes, I'll go almost-live -- aka, 1-2 days late rather than same-day posting -- so that I can protect her identity.
At UT, the first evening is convocation/orientation, then a full day to visit all 13 groups (one of the 14 doesn't participate in formal recruitment, in part because they don't have a house). The next two days are philanthropy (up to 10 houses), then skit day (up to 6), then pref (up to 2). Bid Day is Aug. 23, the day before school starts.
I chose a code based on one of the best parts of being a Texan -- the food! There are 14 NPC sororities at UT, and here's how I will be referring to them:
Fajitas
Iced tea
BBQ brisket
Chicken-fried steak
Blue Bell ice cream
Fried okra
Shiner beer
Breakfast taco
Pecos cantaloupe
Fried catfish
Texas sheet cake
Fletcher's corn dog at the State Fair
Chili
Dr. Pepper
I guess it doesn't make sense to include the one that doesn't participate in FR, but I couldn't pick which awesome food to cut from the code You can see where my priorities are...
The GLOs there, in no order related to the cose, are:
SDT
KKG
APhi
DDD
DG
AXD
KAT
AEPhi
AXO
KD
ZTA
XO
PBPhi
ADPi
So, I'll be back in a few weeks. In the meantime, good luck to everyone preparing for recruitment
