We weren't allowed to run for VP's until we were members for a year, and weren't allowed to run for president until we sat on CMT (directors or VP's) but it was always my understanding that you WANTED to put new members in smaller directorships so that they could move up the ranks in their time in college, and have time to. Director, then VP, then president. Otherwise, you have a director running for president or a new initiate filling a VP, which tends to tire them out. I think it depends on what kind of situation you're in, though, and what the said vp/directorship is. I have personal beliefs (and maybe this is because I'm biased to this position) that a freshman can't be VP: Panhellenic because they don't know enough "big name" people in greek life, yet. Also, our VP: Panhellenic is in charge of things that the person would have to go through to really understand how they are run/won (*cough cough* Derby Days! Homecoming!!). But from what I understand of other VP: Panhellenics at other schools, it's not as big of a position as it is at ours as far as work load. Does any of that make sense, or is it all just jumble?
