I am thinking since we are a land grant and agricultural school, that perhaps this is for Frannie FFA who may live in a town with no stop light, doesn't know women in sororities, and her principal or 4-H leader is writing on her behalf. I really don't think this is aimed at the Boise kids, but more for the rural areas and trying to get people who may be the first to go to college, let alone Greek in their family to feel at ease or be interested. To be honest though, I do know women who had no idea about recruitment, have no sorority connections, and did just fine (and by fine I mean they maximized their options, and didn't put on someone's facebook wall "Fabio Fratty told me I need to be an XYZ and so did other people and I will be nothing else!!!").
I am giggling at one school's page with clothing suggestions. Denim shorts and overalls were listed, and the vision I have is probably not the one they are attempting to project. I see the striped Osh Kosh engineer overalls, and long jorts with maybe cargo pockets or a hammer loop. Sadly there are no visual examples.
