And so it begins...my recruitment story at ASU!!!
 
Hey all!! :D

I joined this forum over seven months ago and the time has finally come for me to write my story!! Since I've already asked for advice about ASU recruitment I didn't see the point of making my school anonymous.

There are twelve Panhellenic sororities at ASU and I haven't decided how to name them yet so give me some time. :) Formal recruitment starts September 4th!! Orientation is tonight.

I'm scared, excited, nervous...all kinds of emotions! Wish me luck and I will update as the days go by!

I am back from orientation!!! There were literally hundreds of girls there--wow!

I have to say I am really relieved! I was all worried about where to go and getting lost but I found out that my recruitment counselor will meet with our small group in our own place every day to lead us where to go! She is a REALLY nice girl and very approachable so I have no fear of not getting my questions answered. :D For some reason I can't wait to find out what chapter she is in but I will have to wait until recruitment is over!

She did say that rarely a girl will get cut from all houses and that make my stomach sink a little. :( I'm going into this as confidently as I can but that fear is still in the back of my mind, know what I mean? Everyone I meet in classes and such, when they find out I am rushing, asks me "which one?" Am I already supposed to have a preference....? :confused: Because I am out-of-state and I am completely neutral right now since I have not met the houses yet!

Ok, so, like I said there are 12 Panhellenic Sororities at ASU. Just picking random girls' names that I love (any correlation to a girl in that house is TOTALLY coincidental, people!):

Aurelia
Lily
Katerina
Isabella
Tatiana
Gina
Cecilia
Stella
Madeline
Ava
Evelyn
Mia



Next update 9/4!!!!

It's ok to NOT have a preference. Some girls will, but it's best to go in with an open mind to all chapters.

Good luck to you girl! I really like the names Lily (reminds me of, of course, the flower) and Stella (an AOII founder..I am a dork I know lol). Have fun!

Yeah! I'm so excited to hear a story from a PNM going to ASU!!! I've seen recruitment there from the "alum" perspective so I'm thrilled to read from the PNM perspective!!!!

Good. I got asked this AGAIN today. I feel like a loser when I say, "Uhh...I don't have a specific one"

You are in NO way a loser! A suggestion on a response my be, I have an open mind or I see great attributes for each chapter. That way you don't have to be pin pointed into a decision or give the "popular" answer.

I hope that is helpful

M:D

I can't wait for tonight! It's our first round.
Don't feel lame for saying you don't have a preference.
Even though I secretly do, I say that I'm keeping an open mind and that I'm waiting to meet all the houses first. That way I don't accidently put down someone's house that I might love or put more emphasis on a house that I like but don't really know yet.

This weekend is going to be so much fun for us.
I hope you're as excited as I am =)

Giuliana 09-04-2009 02:47 PM
