Second Day:
I was asked back to 10 of the houses, all but Chi Omega. I chose to release Gamma Phi Beta and Kappa Alpha Theta. Today we toured the chapter houses and did a philanthropy craft. This was important to me because I really like to do charity work.
AXO-Awesome again. I really hit it off with the girls I spoke with. Their house was cool too. They have a vanity area in every room with a sink and seperate lighting. We made care packages for the local domestic violence shelter.
ADPi-I was rushed by another girl who was not from OSU. Although this time it was one on one. I didn't feel comfortable trying to learn about a sorority from a girl who isn't in that specific house.
DDD-I didn't really click with the girl but she was nice. I know it's superficial but they have open closets-no doors. I think that would be really annoying. No matter how neat your closet is it makes the room look cluttered.
KD-Another awesome girl. For the philanthropy we tied a ribbon around the neck of a teddy bear for a children's hospital. It felt like almost an afterthought. Like they wouldn't be doing it if they didn't have to.
KKG-I really liked all of the girls I talked to here. They showed a video showing the girls actually doing all of their different philanthropy work throughout the year. I liked that because it made me feel like they showed that they really care about their work and they think about it year-round.
PhiMu-I didn't really click with any of the girls I talked to. The were all nice just not my style
PiPhi-The girls I talked to were very nice. The house as a whole seems almost over-confident. The girls remind me a lot of the girls I went to high school with.
ZTA-I liked the girls here also. We made bunnies out of a stress ball and a washcloth. They send them to women who are rebuilding muscles after having a masectomy (sp?)
Of the philanthropies I liked AXO and ZTA the best. They both are so directly related to women and helping problems that so much more often affect women. I know that men can be abused and get breast cancer-but the vast majority with each problem are women. [I'll get off of my soapbox now.]
