Congratulations to you! I'm glad you found a place to be happy, and I'm sure that since you put SOO much thought into your decision, it is definitely the right one for you. Now, a thought.... While recruitment is fresh on your mind, take a few minutes to write down some thoughts about your chapter's recruitment process. Remember things you liked and things you disliked (I know you have them cause you've mentioned them in your thread!). Chances are, your chapter's recruitment chair will do a survey / questionnaire to get some feedback from the new member class. Remember to be constructive in your criticism - it is important to know when they are doing something wrong that could turn potential members off in the future. Things like saying "We really really really want you," (which could even be an infraction depending on SHSU's recruitment guidelines - it is at ETSU). Even if one of the officers doesn't do a written survey, you'll have your notes for when the new recruitment chair takes office and begins planning for the next formal recruitment period.

Then to a lesser extent, make a note of things you might have liked in other chapters. And I'm not talking chapter-specific things like philanthropy and skit that you would be "ripping off." I'm thinking things like how many of their members you talked to, something that was said to you that made an impression....

Again, congratulations and best wishes in your new sorority! We don't have a Sigma Sigma Sigma, so I don't know much. But I know JocelynC seems awfully cool on GC!
