another colony in FL
 

Last year DZ colonized at UF.... You may want to read up a bit on their success story.

UF56 is one of the founding sisters, so you may want to talk to her about it all.

I feel ya! I had a BC scare in February 2000. I was lucky and was not diagnosed. The Komen Org has always been a soft spot for me and it will ALWAYS be a soft spot

Good luck in pursing ZETA

Good luck Brooke! I have a good feeling about you and ZTA. :) Call it instinct...but I just have a good feeling.

PS Mr Amycat went to USF, he has nothing but good things to say about it and the greek system there.

Brooke,
If you have any questions about ZTA at USF, please come into the Greek Life Office (Lower Level of the Marshall Center). We have fliers and contact information that we can give you. I'm on Panhellenice Executive Board and any of us would be happy to help!

Greek Love,
Shae

Thanks!!! I tried calling but no one was ever there. I will come in Monday afternoon before my first class.

Good luck, Brooke! Yay for the new ZTA colony! :D

Keep us updated! :)

A friend of mine helped colonize a Zeta chapter in Virginia back in the '70's. She said it was hard work but also one of the most rewarding things she has ever done.

Best wishes to you!

Please post any and all thoughts on the process of rushing a colonizing chapter Brooke! We're having Kappa Alpha Theta colonize at UBC this fall (sooner than thought, so way exciting) and we want all the info we can get from your perspective!

And thanks for the link to your rush thread WhiteDaisy128, I know it wasn't meant for me specifically, but it felt like it was because it explained a lot to me!

Best of luck, just keep thinking positive thoughts and believing in yourself and what you will bring to the organization, that's how I got through one of the most stressful, fun, and rewarding times in my life.

AU DG colony!
 

Here's my rush thread for when I went through colony recruitment for Delta Gamma! If you have any questions, let me know!

I hope I did that right!

Yeah and Good Luck!

Good luck! I too am a charter member of my chapter. It's a lot of work, just like everyone else said, but really worth it.

I also have to mention that ZTA has a really strong presence in Florida and wonderful chapters across the state. (I go to UCF, btw.) You can't go wrong.

Thanks for all the support everybody! Here's the schedule, since I know you are curious.

September 15th- Interviews start (I think they go all week though)

September 16th- ZTA Open House 7 pm

September 17th- Stomp Out Breast Cancer Philanthropy Event 7 pm

September 18th- Pref. Ceremony (invit. only) 7pm

Unfortunately, I have class til 8 pm on the 16th, but ZTA said it would be ok if I miss the open house. Hopefully it won't hurt me.

It shouldnt....as CurlyGirly mentioned I was a founding sister at of DZ at UF....and we had a week long of events and I was only able to attend my interview and prefs. I do suggest you getting a rec, we had over 500 people interview for 154 spots and I was told it did factor in. On a side note being in a colony is great because you are starting it yourselves and get to make it the way you want.
