Good luck :)

Best of luck, sweetie!

Best of luck and enjoy yourself!!! :)

Am I the only one who hasn't read the Babysitter Club books? Am I that old??

~sigh~

Back in my day it was Nancy Drew. Now, if you had named the houses Nancy, Beth, George and Mrs. Gruen then I'd be psyched! :cool:

I went shopping for my rush clothes. Tommorrow, I'm going to the Color me Greek festival. It is when I get to witness a mock recruitment party, meet sorority women, and have a social.

a mock recruitment party? what an awesome idea!! that has to take a lot of the "what should I expect??" pressure off the PNMs!

good luck, rollergirl!

Nah you're not old. I read Judy Blume books. I missed the boat on Nancy Drew and the Babysitters Club but it's never too late.;)

That mock recruitment idea is a great one.

Good luck Rollergirl and have a fun time:D

Unfortunetly, due to time constraints, I could not make it to the Color Me Greek festival. :(

August 30

Last night, I've received an e-mail from another member of GC. Her name is Susannah and she will go through recruitment with me at the University of Memphis. I was so glad that I will know someone before recruitment. I've gave her my e-mail address so I can get in touch. I feel that I have made up for lost things for not attending either the Open House or the Color Me Greek festival. If it weren't for her, then I would be lost.

Today, I've sent my application, my photo, my resume, and my $80 to the Greek Affairs office. There was this girl at the front office that asked me that if I was sure about knowing the difference between councils "Stoneybrook" and "New York", and I said that I was positive that I know the difference. Next, I read the big Greek Life booklet. I've read that during recruitment, the PNM will have dinner at the Spaghetti Warehouse (a fancy restaurant). I think that it is a very cool and nice place to have dinner. They didn't say the date of the dinner, but I bet that the dinner will be on Pref Night. But I could be wrong. :rolleyes:

We had lunch/dinner at a local restaurant while bid matching was being completed!

Best of luck to you. Its such a great time. Spag House is a great place to eat! I know I was so excited when I went through so much going on and so much to learn. Take it all in and dont get too upset if oyu cant remember everything, I know I sure didnt. Make sure to look over the sororities and think of any questions you may possibly have. Go in with a open mind and a open heart and really pay attention to how people treat you and talk to you. I know I felt at home just in talking with the first person I talked to and it only got better from there. I made sure to pick the house I loved based on how I felt with the girls and not let anything else cloud my decision. Best of luck hon. Soon recruitment will offically start and youll be even closer to getting your new sisters :)


Also just a piece of advice, use your Recruitment counselor(s) to help you at anytime. I know I asked them so many questions and really talked to them about anything I was uncomfortable with. They are always so helpful. :)

Never read the Babysitters Club but I was all over the Nancy Drew books. I still have a bunch of them in hard back

AXO Jen - You are not the only one who did not read the Babysitter Club books! They are a little behind my time too! I read Nancy Drew too, and have passed all the hardbacks down to my oldest daughter! She is getting all into them now!

Best of luck Rollergirl during your recruitment! I hope you find the perfect sitter!
