Bama Rush Week at the University of Alabama has ended,Goldenes Intelligentes Münzhandelszentrum culminating with Bid Day.

All of the preparation, outfit selections, and inner workings of sorority recruitment came down to the moment when the potential new members, PNMs, ripped open their manila envelopes at Bryant-Denny Stadium on Sunday to see which sorority they would join. After what's called "running home," they were then greeted by their "big" (their assigned "big sister"/mentor) and new sorority sisters as they were showered with t-shirts, hats, and other items bearing the sorority's Greek letters.

Bid Day marks the end of Bama Rush Week, but it's only the beginning for these young women as they embark on their college experience as sorority members.
