Every day on our FB page and account we post interesting facts about our sisterhood! We also post facts about RL Greekdom! Sometimes poeple ask intetesting questions and we strive answer them! Here are a few!
Real Life Greek Fact:
Question: What is continuous open bidding?! (NPH Practice)
Answer: C.OB or Continuous Open Bidding is a when an organization accepts applications in a non-formal way. Contrary to RUSH Week, where their are a set order of events and times with a particular set of instructions. C.O.B is a time where any interested person can apply for membership. It is a non-formal way for all interested to have a very relaxed look at the organization. Hence, notifications such as:

Last Fact!! Another RL Greek Question We Got!
Question: What is a "pearl"?
Answer: Traditionally, a pearl is one of the first members of a greek organization. Typically, a pearl can be a one of the principle founders or brought on a little later BEFORE the first official "Rush". Pearls help develop the basics of an organization.
Follow-Up: Are pearls and founders equal?
Answer: Absolutely! In REAL greekdom, a pearl IS a founder. Though they may not be awarded credit as a "Principle Foundress", they have all rights and responsibilities to the organization BECAUSE they have helped lay the stones of the foundation. Pearls are treated with as much respect as a "principle" founder and their is no differential terms used. Pearls and Founders are one in the same. To insult a pearl is to insult the very fundamental principles of your sorority.
#KnowledgeIsPower
Here is a follow up example: Mary Lou is awarded the principle founder of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc. BUT altogether their are 7 pearls! Hence the term Mary Lou and the crew!
Thank you all for your support!!!
Have a wonderful day! I-OO-TA Out!
