I went into recruitment at UGA completely oblivious - now, OK, it was almost 20 years ago, but hear me out.

I had an older sister in a sorority at a completely different smaller school, and that was it.

I had one recommendation, and that was it (NOTE - I don't recommend this, I just had no idea I needed them or I'd have been diligent in getting them). I was completely clueless.

I was not a party girl, I didn't really wear makeup, I was a total feminist, and I was kind of a geek.

I still am all of those things.

Point being, I went through rush with not real notion of the houses, except for the brief descriptions that we got in our Rush Guide.

And at the end of Round 1, I didn't have my heart set on one house, I had my heart set on all eighteen of them. Really and truly I found something to like about each house.

Now, the house where my hostess ditched me and left me staring out their lovely bay window feeling awkward... that one didn't make the top of my list, but you get what I'm saying.

There are as many kinds of sorority girl as there are girls in a sorority.

So, do your homework as far as getting recs, and reading your recruitment materials and go and enjoy the process.
