My only complaint was about Philanthropy night. I understand the importance of talking about our philanthropies, but I found the craft-making component to be really silly. It was particularly so if you were part of a sorority whose phil. doesn't really translate well to a craft.
I would MUCH rather have just done a nice presentation with video (for example) about RPM rather than a craft.

I remember when I was graduating this was being discussed on my campus. I couldn't even fathom what you would do for this. I keep stressing to the group I advise to actually do something with the stuff they make during recruitment, otherwise this is just a worthless endeavor. I think they really need to overhaul that part of recruitment.
I guess I like the no frills recruitment because I found the whole skit thing irritating and over the top. Having college women dressed up in ridiculous costumes was rather embarrassing to me. I felt sorry for them. I liked the chanting, though. It reminds me of cheerleading.
