super confused

Really? Where did you hear that?

where did u hear this. What other sororities still have to meet quota?

I am"super confused" why you are "super confused". You make a statement, true or not...since you are acting as if you are in-the-know, what exactly are you confused about?

They aren't snap bids. They are open bids, bids given out in the COB (continuous open bidding) process. Panhellenic sets a total and any chapter whose membership is under that total is able to give out these bids until they reach total. Total was reset to the median chapter size after recruitment. It doesn't "look bad", it is just a process for chapters to give out additional opportunities for women to go Greek.

NO ONE is giving out snap bids. Those are given out on bid day only and only the people who received a snap bid know they did. They are part of the regular pledge class.

Some sororities may be giving out open bids because they have a few spots available now than panhel increased total. Or like with AXiD and SDT, they were already significantly below total.

Open bids are a great opportunity to pick up women who are good PNMs but didn't go through recruitment or who dropped early. It doesn't look bad. It's good for PNMs and for the sororities who get them.

Have said, many greek life offices reset total(the total number of members a sorority can have at one time) after formal recruitment. Often after formal all sororities are over total, so setting total to the new average chapter size makes sense. This allows some chapters to pledge some more members. The smart chapters take advantage of the opportunity.

LOL: How do you know Zeta and APhi are giving out bids right now? Which other houses are?

Are any of the UT Sororities utilizing the COB process this year (2016)? If so, when will it begin if it has not already?

They don't publicize it because they are only filling a few spots, and they don't want to turn it in to basically another formal recruitment. Talk to your friends in the sororities you like and mention that you are interested if they are doing COB.
