[B]Events, not Rush. There's a huge difference. Just a thought, that's fine to go to different orgs events but dont EXPECT a warm reception if RusheeGirl had been attending a number of NPHCSorority A's events (events that count like fundraisers, community service etc where people SEE YOU) and then show up to NPHC SororityB's events (parties don't count). It looks SUSPECT. That's how it is, I didn't make the rules.

Maybe herein lies the problem...If an interested lady is researching orgs to see which org she is most interested in, best suits her, etc. one would think she should attend public events, not only to meet sisters, other interests etc., but to be servicing the community in general. And if atttending multiple events across the different orgs is taboo, then chances are she is going to stereotype, and/or perpetuate the stereotypes that exist about the different orgs because she didn't take the time to learn what they are really about. Would anyone want an uniformed woman as a member of their org?

Does having not made the rules, mean one can't stand up to them or change them?


:(

BlueBeauty1920 06-16-2005 01:51 PM

Let me point out that this is not a universal rule across the country.

At certain places you can attend events for more than one sorority. It's up to you to feel out the particular place you are to see if that's acceptable.

You also have to keep tabs on your behavior while doing this as well.

You bring up a good point. It definately depends on the campus. My undergrad had a very small population of minority students, so everyone attended everyone else's events, just so you could socialize with other minority students. So in that situation, it wasn't a bad thing to attend other org's events.

Yeah and attending events means nothing unless you make it known that you are an aspirant. I know many people who attended events but did not want to be ANY sorority. They just liked to support the programs.

NPHCers:

Is it considered bad form for friends to show up to events together? In NPC rush, we usually worry about girls who are too attached to a friend or roommate because it turns into a package deal. I am sure the same is true for your actual intake, but what about prior to that?

As long as both persons are interested in the org, it shouldn't be a problem.

For me, it would depend on the nature of the events and the quality of the aspirants.

Generally, I want to get to know aspirants independent of one another.

This might sound crazy but one of my really good friends and I acted as if we didn't know each other beofre we got accepted. The reason being, we wanted to cover all of our bases (parinoid interested girls we were) just incase there was a member out to split up friends who wanted to get in. I have never heard of friends purposely getting turned down, but we wanted to make sure that, that wasn't the case for us. We would talk before an event and after on the phone, but we would d**n near crack up trying to ignore each other.

What sources do you recommend to use 4 researching sororities in the NPHC?
And what is a "sweetheart"?

1. National websites that can be found through www.google.com by entering in each sorority name.
2. Attending programs on your campus and in your community
3. Getting to know (NOT interrogating) members on your campus and in your community.

ladygreek 06-25-2007 11:50 PM

After re-reading this thread I'm not sure this point was made. One of the major differences between NPHC and NPC is you shouldn't Rush your freshman year. Most likely you are not eligible. Thus you have a whole year to get to see what each of the org about and do your research via websites, and conversations.

For some of us Rush is structured nationally as the place where you get the final instructions for joining and receive an application packet. And we don't like handing those out to folx who are just curious. On top of that you MUST attend the Rush to get a packet, because there are some legalities that are covered.

Suppose, hypothetically that I was a young lady in freshman year with good grades, etc. and I wanted to rush the NPHC sororities, and I don't know anything about Alpha Kappa Alpha, Sigma Gamma Rho, Zeta Phi Beta or Delta Sigma Theta? (Assume that all 4 groups are on campus) What is the process please? Do you check out all of them, so as to make an informed decision, or is it best just to approach only one (even if you don't know anyone in that one sorority, or in any of the other BGLO sororities).

I would like to expand my knowledge of both the NPC and the NPHC systems, and any helpful, informative posts would be appreciated. Thank you!

Dredging up the past: My take. How would I go about it these days?

1) I would have completed 1 semester (or 2 quarters) as a FULL TIME, non-remediated student. At some universities/college you are not allowed to join until your sophomore year. Then, you need at least a B average. Even if others say you just need a minimum GPA requirement, aim higher!
2) I would search EVERYTHING from the National PanHellenic Council on my local college campus and internationally.
3) If you are attending school outside of your hometown, then this summer, you would want to attend some functions if you are able. Some cities have small gatherings for families. Much more, you it is very wise to get to know the elders at your church.
4) Lastly, when you have made a choice, attend ALL FUNCTIONS of the organization of your choice. Find time, make an effort and remember, Grades and class units!
5) Familiarize yourself with the members on your campus. Also, familiarize yourself with the older members on your campus. Confidence is key and you need to know yourself and what you can do to still be successful in college. Your first objective at the undergraduate level is college.
6) Partying like a rock star will cause you to be looked over as a PNM.
7) Any letters need to be reviewed professionally.
8) Is it wise to say anything? Your questions you ever had to ask, ask how you can best serve your NPHC organization of your choice.
