It is hard to believe it has been 10 years since my daughter and I went on the college tour trip. At that time she informed me she was not going to go through recruitment. Reminded me of it over and over. The school she chose had a KD chapter. Oh how I wanted her to go through recruitment. I KEPT MY MOUTH SHUT on that one. I did tell her and this is the advise I give all those going off to college/university:
1. I don't care if you go through recruitment or not, but you have to join something and be active. Do not hide away in your dorm room by yourself
2. This is a time to explore subjects you may or may not have thought about in the past that are not part of your major-- take fun classes! You will probably never had the opportunity to take "Underwater Basket Weaving" again.
3. In my daughter's case she entered school with 22 units and the school paid her out-of-state tuition. I told her not to graduate early but use the 22 units she was ahead to take those fun classes I mentioned above.
4. Have fun but remember, the main purpose of attending school is to get an education!
