I'm having a flash back to when I posted in the Fall 2008/Spring 2009 thread! *tear*

I'm rushing (at Bama obviously) and I absolutely cannot wait!

I am at Washington State Univeristy! I am super excited :)

I'm thinking about rushing at LSU this fall! I'm really concerned about the fact that I'm a junior but I think I will do it since it's my last year of eligibility and I really want to. Oh, I really don't know how to go about recs so if someone has any advice I would really appreciate it :] It's pretty much up to the PM to get those. Recs are really coveted because recruitment is so competitive here (as most of you know.)

You're a Junior. Do you have friends in sororities since you've been on campus for a few years?

The discussions in the Sorority Recruitment forum are a great place to start. Read, read, read. Chances are you'll find the answers and advice you'll need but you're really gonna have to do the work to secure those recs. Start with the people you already know and contact your nearest Alumnae Panhellenic ASAP but don't be surprised if you have difficulty with them, too. Based on what I've read online, most PNMs have submitted their resumes and photos to potential rec writers weeks ago.

LSU Recruitment starts in mid-August. You'd better get crackin' at those recs if you're hoping to get them in by the suggested deadline of July 1st.

I do! One of my friends is already helping me find an Alumn from her chapter to write me a rec, but it's been difficult for her too. I just recently decided to go through rush because I was scared of being dropped just because I'm a junior. I had heard from a friend that juniors (and seniors) weren't allowed to go through formal recruitment but the Greek Life office said that wasn't true so I'm just now trying to get everything set up.

I will be surprised if hypo goes through recruitment, but she has THREE friends going to school at my old campus who would all make awesome sorority women but they are on the fence about going through recruitment. I'll be working on them all summer. Another is going to Michigan and I'm also working on her...lol. They are all intrigued with the scholarship, philanthropy and sisterhood but concerned about the partying aspect because none of them are into the party scene. If hypo does go through recruitment, it is deferred.

This selfish sister hopes she doesn't...so we can AI her in a few years. :p

I think I have my list of PNM and rec crews updated. I have been down with this bronchial virus that has been kicking my butt :(

My daughter will be going through deferred recruitment in January.

Hi all, GC newbie here!
My daughter will be a PNM at a Auburn in August. She's obtained recs for 16 of the 17 groups, and she's looking hard for that 17th. She is a legacy to one of the groups, but since I'll likely post a recruitment story at some point, I don't want to say which one just yet.

Here's to a great recruitment for all this year's PNMs! May everyone find her home.

War Eagle to her!:D

My best friend is rushing at Georgia State as a Sophomore!

I'm rushing as a freshman!

There are a group of girls going through recruitment from my dd's HS. They are are friendly with each other AND ALL of them would make great NM's for any group on campus. The HS is very close to the college campus and usually there is only 1 girl going through from the HS. It will be fun watching them go through.
