Why is this important?

Many parents choose to travel to campus on Bid Day to share the experience with their daughter, meet other parents, learn about individual sorority financial obligations and eat lunch with their daughter at her sorority house. Due to Bid Day retreats, some visits have the possibility of being cut short. Therefore, we encourage all potential new members to discuss this possibility with their parents so appropriate plans can be made.

Jerseys: upon receiving your bid, you will receive a new member bag, jersey and other sorority items. Keep your jersey, you will wear it for many events throughout the year.
