Alpha Chi Omega’s theme for bid day gave us the best of both worlds with their “You’ll Always Find Your Way Back Home” theme. This theme was Hannah Montana inspired and the sorority showed off the colors of purple and gold and accessorized with microphones and guitars.

Alpha Delta Pi was out of this world with their “Area 1851” theme. ADPi was inspired by the idea of space and aliens and wore translucent outfits with cool accessories like alien antennas.

Tri Delta stirred up a storm with their “Tri Delt Strikes Again” theme. Their theme was inspired by thunderstorms and lightning bolts with black and purple accented outfits.

Kappa Alpha Theta went for gold with their “Theta Got the Gold” theme. Their winter olympics inspired theme featured lots of red, white, and blue accessories.

Kappa Delta got fancy with their “Breakfast at KD” theme. Inspired by the movie, “Breakfast at Tiffany’s,” they all repped matching pajama sets.

Sigma Delta Tau had the sweetest Bid Day with their “Welcome to the Sweet Life” theme. The sorority decked out with fake sprinkles, donuts, and candy inspired accessories like big lollipops.


Sigma Kappa:



Sigma Kappa showed off their inner Swiftie with their “I Don’t Know About You But I’m Feeling 22” theme. The sorority was inspired by the Taylor Swift music video and they wore trendy heart sunglasses and pink shirts.
