Balloons, glitter, girls cheering, and limos. No, this isn’t a Justin Timberlake concert. It’s Fall Bid Day! On Saturday September 16th, the four social sororities proudly celebrated a successful fall semester of recruitment.

Every fall each sorority works hard to bring fabulous women into their houses. The first week of school every sorority opened their houses and welcomed Pacific women to come and join them for a themed event. These events not only provided hundreds of women to get a good look at sorority life, but also provided the opportunity to meet a wide range of new friends.

The process for recruitment began on Friday, September 1st when sororities headed out to find and give their selected women the opportunity to join their organizations. In order to participate in fall recruitment, Pacific women had to have second semester freshman standing or higher and a cumulative G.P.A. of at least 2.5. However, even with those qualifications, women were encouraged to attend events and sign up for formal recruitment for the spring.

Fall Bid Day brought all the sororities together to celebrate their hard work and congratulate each house on their successful new additions. Delta Gamma cheered for their new 7 members, along with Alpha Phi’s proud 7. Delta Delta Delta’s 9 women walked on a red carpet, and Kappa Alpha Theta roared with pride for their new 9.

Each sorority spends the day celebrating for not only its members, but also Pacific’s successful Greek life. When the day was over, each sorority pumped itself up for another fun fall and for the bright future for formal recruitment.
