ZTA Recruitment Results 2003
 

Here is our brag thread.

List the chapter, university, and the number of wonderful new members!

Iota Chi
Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro, TN
# of AWESOME ZTA new members: 33 (which is also QUOTA)

The place: We had Bid Day at the House of Clay/Let it Bead, and all the new members got to make jewelry or pottery there. Of course most of them made something related to ZTA. There was food there also, and our theme for the day was "Welcome to our Family".

The shirts: light blue FRONT: pink lettering, Zeta Tau Alpha (pic of sunglasses)Bid Day Fall 2003 MTSU
BACK: picture of lil girls, and the quote,
"There's no better friend than a sister
There's no one more loyal and true
And even when sisters are different
Their likenesses come shining through."

The backdrop: blown up B&W pictures of old members w/"frames" painted around them and sunglasses painted. The pics will be on the website soon!

Way to go, MTSU Zetas!
 

Congratulations on taking quota. It sounds like you shared a very fun Bid Day with your new members!:)

Thanks! I'm extra excited because, after two years I still have never had a Lil Sis (had to take off from school last Fall w/the whole lack-of-student-loan situation), but I will finally have one (or two) this year. We got our Strawberry Sisters yesterday (temporary littles), and mine is the sweetest girl!

I gave her a little basket w/a ZTA ribbon on it, and inside was: a strawberry candle, a diary, ZTA pencil, bunny-shaped hand soap, a keychain in the shape of sunglasses (to go with the Bid Day theme), and strawberry candy. She loved it. I told her we would hang out this weekend, and to call me if she needed anything at all. :D

I just had to drop in and say I like your quota #. Tee hee. :D

LOL. I wonder why... ? ;)

Beta Gamma Chapter at Florida State made quota plus five and welcomed 65 new sisters yesterday for bid day!

I would like to announce that the Eta Kappa chapter at UCF has made quota (of course! :) ) with 69 new members!!!!!

Gamma Phi chapter at the University of North Texas made quota plus 1. Yay!

The Valdosta State ZTA's Eta Iota chapter (i do believe its EI if i remeber right) got quota at 26! I know this even though I no loner live in Valdosta because I talked to a VSU ZTA the other day. Congrats!

Congrats to the chapters that have completed recruitment! It sounds like the ZTA's are doing great!

Hopefully I'll have good news from the California chapters in another month or so!

ZLAM!

Wow. You all must have HUGE Greek systems at your schools for quota to be set that high. Our quota this year was actually LOWER (33 vs. 39) than last year because of recruitment being before classes started. I hope we have a later recruitment next year, because I have heard many complaints about the early rush from both old and new members.

More specifically, the poor freshmen who had to move into their dorms the day before the first night of recruitment barely had a chance to get settled, let alone get used to classes and college life in general, before adding to the chaos with Greek life.

Anyhow, congrats fellow Zetas on all the quotas met!!! ;)

we have informal recruitment in the fall and it never starts til after classes start; classes start on sept 2nd; our first recruitment party is one week after that; it seems so odd to me that some schools have recruitment before classes even start; we don't even start early when we have formal recruitment in the fall; hearing everyone's results and reading rush threads is getting me so excited for recruitment; usually i don't look forward to it all, its just always so much work; not mention that i've been through it about a MILLION times; but i miss my sisters so much and i'm so excited to see them and i'm really looking forward to getting new members! so this year, i'm really excited for recruitment; i feel like we're going to really well; i'll let you all know...

Strawberrysis, are you a ZTA at UMD? How's the school? The Greek system? Your chapter? Hope to hear from you soon. Have a great semester!
