Bid Night highlights

Social Clubs held their 2014 Bid Night in Collins Alumni Auditorium to kickstart pledge week. “Big night is the most exciting night,” said Pi Delta member Sarah McFarlin. Sigma Iota Delta member Cade Morgan calls bid night, “everything.” “It’s where we introduce who we are taking into our club and who’s going to be the future of it,” Morgan said. Each group did a roll-call activity and each pledge introduced his or her self on stage. The most memorable act of the night was by the pledges of Theta Psi, who inhaled helium before introducing themselves.

Seeing everyone work together is like a glimpse of eternity.” Cartwright said that her trip involved a good deal of hard work, but a few surprises were to be found along the way “We did a lot of manual labor, helping with the construction of the house,” Cartwright said. “The best part was that we only thought we were going to be working, but we got to meet kids...
