My campus is so small, that by the time someone gets up enough nerve to actually tell one of us she is interested in Delta, we already know, so it's more of a test to see if she will say something to one of us.
As for how I prefer to be approached: 1) one on one. Comming up to a group of us at a party (especilly one that we are hosting) and wanting to tell us about all of the wonderful things we are doing (would take forever
) is FAKE. Speak as you go by, but don't make a production out of it. 2) Being that I am a whole lot of things in addition to being a Delta, I like it when people start our relationship on one of those other tips. For example, There are young ladies that come up to me after church and we talk about the message, or I have young ladies that call me about an upcomming test in a class we have together. I like this approach for two reasons. because it tells me something about their intrests and goals outside of membership, and it lets me know if they are a thinking person. 3) I can't stand it when prospectives think that because we have become cordial (sp?) that they no longer have to do their research, or I will give them inside information. My Mother (who is also a Delta) not only knew everything that they were going to tell me, but she knew WHEN whey would tell me, and yet said NOTHING. If I couldn't get info out of her, what makes them think they could get info out of me.
Like I said, At a small campus, I can usually see someone comming up to me because of my letters semesters in advace, so maybe people at bigger campuses feel differently.
