When my daughter went through recruitment we made contact with our local alumni association for her university. We attended a couple of football watch parties and struck up conversations with several women. While chatting we casually mentioned that she would be going through formal recruitment. Turns out these dear ladies took her under their wings, hosting a luncheon for her, inviting all of the alums in the area who had sorority affiliations. By the end of the luncheon my daughter had recs to quite a few houses on campus and they were from alums from those chapters!!! These ladies were a huge help and a wealth of knowledge! If you do not know if there is an active alum group in your area then contact your college's or university's local recruiter, they should know. BTW...recruiters can also be a great source for recs. I speak as a parent at student recruitment functions for my daughter's university. Of the recruiters on hand for our last event all of them had been sorority members and if asked were more than happy to help with recs...
Just a couple of suggestions  . |
Are you in a sorority?
Having a bunch of strangers holding a luncheon in honor of someone they don't know so she can get letters is sort of unusual I think.
