I never went through recruitment my freshman year because I didn't know alot about sororities, plus I was very shy and I figured that it wouldn't work out too well. So all my freshman year I saw girls in sororities and I wanted that, because I saw how close the sisters were and I was envious of that.
I thought about rushing my sophomore year, but I knew it is harder for sophomores to get bids at my school (though my freshman year roommate went through recruitment her soph year and went Gamma Phi Beta). So I thought that there would be no chance for me to be in a sorority as an undergrad, and that made me sad because I really wanted to be in a sorority. Then in November of my sophomore year (this past Nov) I heard that Delta Gamma was recolonizing at Auburn and I was so excited! I went through DG's recruitment and became a member of the colonizing pledge class!!
Even though I think it would have been fun to go through Recruitment, I know that Delta Gamma is my home!
