I see that there are two NPC sororities at UW Whitewater. Do they do formal recruitment, and if so, do you participate? FR is a very different animal from informal recruitment or NPHC rush, and you would need themes, skits, songs, etc.

Whether you do FR or a more informal recruitment, I agree with what KSUViolet said. People join because they enjoy their conversations and feel a connection with the chapter and the sisters. You have a limited amount of time with the PNMs, and most of that time should be geared towards convos, not filled with skits and songs.

(This also means that if there's a lot of ambient noise from music or from other convos, your sisters and the PNMs are not going to be able to carry on a convo, and the PNMs will leave with anything ranging from a negative impression, to a sore throat from having to shout to be heard, to a splitting headache from all the noise.)

Good luck with your fall recruitment.
