Bid night is the time when the individual sororities distribute invitations to membership. The sorority members meet their new members in front of Memorial Building and then escort the new members to bid night functions. These functions are focused on having the new members get acquainted with each other as well as welcoming them to their sorority!
Alternative Recruitment
September 15-17, 2008
7:00-8:15pm
Students sometimes have a conflict with the recruitment schedule, especially if they participate in fall athletics. In order to provide an opportunity for these students to take a closer look at the sororities, we have created an alternative recruitment process. On each of these days, one of the sororities will host an evening activity. Dress is casual.
