continuous open bid

It's start 2 weeks after recruitment to allow Sigma Kappa to colonize. Some do, some don't. You didnt have to go through recruitment to receive one. Helpful if you know sisters in the organization you want

are there any sororities in particular that do it? how does it work?

depends on their numbers. everyone made quota this year so it depends on how many drops each pledge class has. none might be doing it, some might be doing, all might be doing it. it's best to email FSL/Panhellenic and ask

also, as to how it works: say sorority XYZ has 2 open spots because 2 girls in spring '16 dropped. that sorority will officially enter a period of "continuous open bidding" until 2 new girls accept those 2 open spots. the sorority will reach out to girls that they think are good fits, who may have dropped recruitment entirely or not rushed at all because of other circumstances. they WILL NOT extend bids to a woman who received a bid but dropped because she did not like the sorority she got on bid day. this is because that woman who dropped after receiving a bid signed a document after preference round saying that she understands that upon preffing the sororities she did, she is agreeing to not rush for a year after no matter what happens. hope this cleared things up a little.

So do they reach out to the girls who they liked but dropped recruitment or are we supposed fo reach out to the sororities
