Delta Zeta colony?
 
Delta Zeta is coming to UTC next semester. Can anyone tell me how new sororities go about recruitment?

Every sorority tends to structure colony recruitment differently.

Thanks! I'm worried about missing out on things, like getting to have bigs.

Well, you need to get a bid first. :) Colonies usually have "twins" or alumnae bigs.

I don't know how DZ does things, but I have heard of some colonies of other sororities having "twins" within the colony so that they get to have a similar type of experience (ex: you make gifts and leave clues for your twin and get to have "twin revealing."

However, every sorority does things differently with colonies so you may or may not have that.

Clementine<3 04-20-2010 05:30 PM

Of course. Well that's exciting. This has been helpful thanks for replying :)

When our chapter recolonized, older members took younger members as Bigs and Littles (sister-mother and sister-daughter)

Ok sorry I'm a little confused on the twin thing. If Patty and Sally are twins and Patty is leaving clues for Sally (she has to know who to give it to right?) and Sally is leaving them for Patty; wouldn't they both know who their twin already was? Or does only one twin know, but then who decides which one knows and which one doesn't? Sorry I'm sure I'm missing something here, but right now I'm very very confused.:o

you might not know who your twin is, but you leave clues as to who YOU are- usually the person who paired everyone up knows who is in each "pair" and coordinates the gifts and stuff so that they get to the right person.

Ok thanks for clearly that up. That makes perfect sense and I probably should of been able to figure it out, but it's almost exam week here. My brain is fried:o and I just want to curl up in my bed for a few days lol.

Just to throw this out there.. I am now a member of the first Delta Zeta pledge class at UTC!

LucyKKG 09-12-2010 01:19 AM

Aw yay! Thanks for coming back and letting us know! How's it going?

GVSU_DZ 09-12-2010 08:51 AM

CONGRATS!!!! Welcome to the sisterhood :)

AZTheta 09-12-2010 11:58 AM

Congratulations to you and to Delta Zeta! Would love to hear a little bit about your experiences from time to time if you get a chance. I've never participated in a colony, and likely never will, so like learning about it from those who actually get to do so.

AOII Angel 09-12-2010 12:57 PM

That's great, Clementine! It's an honor to be a member of a colony. Enjoy being part of the beginning of a tradition.

FSUZeta 09-12-2010 01:12 PM

I'm also a new mwmber of the 2010 Pledge class :) I'm so excited!!!!

And to answer some of the above questions, we will be having Twins! We will be getting them in two weeks and I can't wait!!!

Beaumom 10-09-2010 12:09 AM

Congrats on DZ and your upcoming Twin match,

My daughter is a DZ and we have been working on her little basket for a few weeks; here are a few things we loved!

Lily Pulitzer has a sorority line and they currently have 5 national sororitys. DZ is one of them. My daughter liked the clutch wallet.

They also have a whole line with really really cute Lily turtles!!

Charming Charlies (Chain accessory store) has turtle necklaces and lots of rose jewelry!

She is making a bulletin board as well as painting two pictures!

Photo frames or scrapbooks are nice too!!

Enjoy!!

(Sorry if I mispelled anything!)

Congratulations Clementine and DZCutie and welcome to our sisterhood! Come introduce yourselves in the Delta Zeta forums :D

Clementine<3 11-30-2010 12:52 AM

Thanks everyone! And the Lily Pulitzer stuff is so cute, I was checking all that out before recruitment even began haha. By the way, I'm loving it! If I can figure out the whole forum thing I will do that but I don't really know my way around here yet..
