zta cob
by: TurntZTA the supposed "top" house just gave a girl a bid. But wait it isn't the fall, you may ask? This means that they participated in continuous open bidding. COB normally has a negative connotation with it BUT zeta just did it. HOT OFF THE PRESS ZETA WAS UNDER CHAPTER TOTAL. I just want everything me to know and from this realize that there are no tiers. Every house goes through ups and downs and every house has good quality and bad quality girls.

People give the lower tier sororities crap for doing it all the time, but the truth is everyone does it and you have to be invited to spring rush anyways. Does anyone ever even bother to look up the chapter total numbers because they are all over the place! It seriously depends on the total number of girls graduating, quitting, going inactive, etc. If you pledge a bunch of sophomores one year, then yes, you are going to lose a lot of girls three years later. Unless you can't meet pledge class total during rush, then no one should be worried about other houses and COB.

they aren't the only house that tells their spring girls not to post anything or tell anyone either. DZ and PiPhi for sure told their new girls not to tell anyone and everyone in the chapter already is lock lipped.

If no one talks about it then how would you know they got spring girls? Nothing wrong with it either, girls graduate early/late all the time.

Because it's obvious when someone you know isn't in a sorority all of a sudden starts wearing letters. Duh.

Most sororities at A&M and most other colleges participate in spring rush. I dont know where the negative connotation came from here but the reality is, sororities are a business and require members and money to run. Almost every sorority here participates in some form of spring rush because members graduate early or go abroad all the time. Lets say that 10 members graduate early, thats a loss of almost $20,000 in dues. They need to fill spots. If every sorority would just accept spring rushing as a thing that must be done, the spring members would feel so much more welcome in the sisterhoods here. You can get great girls in the spring who got lost in the system or were interested in greek life because someone impacted them and encouraged them to join.

Zeta and a lot of others do this every year. They take girls late spring, and keep it hush hush, then they can take smaller PCs and look more selective. A lot of "top" sororities don't have good retention rates, they just pay the fines and pad their numbers quietly. At least the lower tier that take spring girls let them have a mini bid day and go through the whole fun process and get the sorority experience.

That's so sad! Everyone should feel welcomed into the sisterhood they just joined!
