After a long weekend of recruitment, it was finally the last, and best, day – bid day! This is when each girl going through formal recruitment gets a “bid” or an invitation to join a sorority.

It’s the perfect way to start off an incoming chapter’s first day as a part of the Greek community. Girls de
