As soon as you hit on something random, ridiculous, or weird and can go with it, you've kind of hit a gold mine (at least in my experience). My two favorite sorority recruitment conversations were about shark attacks (no lie) and the second was a conversation conversation was with PNM 1 that was completely with our eyes because PNM 2 in her rush group was nuts and kept saying things like "I don't really like... people". Okay then what the heck are you doing joining a SOCIAL organization? I think I wrote about her in the crazy PNM stories.

In any event in the case of the second conversation the woman I had the eye convo with ended up joining, becoming my co-chair for this past year, and is now our president. She's also freaking hilarious (which I could tell from the first eye roll, haha).

The shark attack girls didn't join a chapter I believe, but I hold out hope that they will find us again through COB. Basically random (not forced) conversations almost always win a woman over, IMO. It's those chapters that you realize the women aren't just question asking robots but are genuine women that you could see yourself living, eating, and talking with. Sometimes though the connection just won't be there, and that's okay because that is why there are other rounds. Some women that I talked to during recruitment I didn't really click with but in later rounds another sister sold them. Which is probably the greatest benefit of a diverse sisterhood.
