Silence reigned yesterday on Oread for sorority rushes. At 11 o'clock Monday, the 14 Greek sororites on Oread were to report to the Dean of Women and the process of notifications and rushe preferential list began to function. The first group was the sisters were to report at 5 o'clock yesterday to hand in their preferential list, otherwise their bids were dropped as differently dropped at the Dean's office.
Today the cheeses are going on. Today, the cheese comes out. The outcome is easy, but where first bids and first preferences disagree, then secondary bids and preferences agree, then a third bid, then "greek" cheese or sorority choices. That's the machinery of sorority business.
At noon today the sororites are given their "houses" and the secret of "Who is to be Who in Greenland" will be out. Last year 13 social sororities made announcements shortly after Tuesday following rush week.
With the fraternity pledging completed with the "yellin"-is ceremonies Sunday evening, attention shifted to the morning activities until 5 o'clock yesterday was the zero hour for assuring rushes and "bid" parties, parties dates and rush activities shifted to the marshalling tactics within the office of Dean Agnes Hus
