As stated, what it means to be sweetheart will be different to every chapter at every campus. However, what should generally be the same everywhere is that it is an honor. You will get to wear the fraternity's letters- which means they think you exemplify the values of thier letters and that you will respect thier letters as much as they do- they shouldn't take that lightly.

Honestly, as a freshman, I echo that you should probably ask your friend not to nominate you. Among the numerous reasons (probably the most important the one that 33girl states), I doubt that after only 2 months on a campus you know the fraternity you want to be associated with for the next 3 1/2 years.

Finally, be careful- at my campus, the girls who campaigned for sweetheart were made fun of, and rarely got it. Because it is an honor, the men should recognize you for the everyday things you do, not the cheap gimmicks you do in an attempt to be sweetheart. Girls who openly campaigned for sweetheart were not looked at positively- by the brothers or the other women who associate with them.
