Re: Interest Question
1) Would you be more likely to show interest in an organization with more established chapters as opposed to one with fewer?
More chapters. I want to know that I have sisters wherever I go. If I happen to move, I want to be assured that I will be able to find an alum group to get involved with.
2) Would you show more interest in an organization with large numbers as opposed to one with small numbers?
Large. I don't know if this question pertains to the organization as a whole or the local chapter. While rushing as a freshman, admittedly, I only wanted to join a house that had large numbers. At the time, the chapters with the largest numbers were the strongest. I didn't want to have to worry about struggling to bring up our numbers or reputation.
3) Would you prefer to join an organization that has been around for longer but had few chapters?
I would pick an organization that has more chapters over the length of existance.
Did the organization’s colors or website affect your interest level?
I looked at the local level websites. This was the late 90's so individual chapters didn't go out and get a web designer to do their website. Needless to say, none of the chapters on the UCF campus had impressive websites. So, I certainly didn't base my decision from this.
What was it about the organization that you chose that interested you?
My organization has a huge presence throughout Florida and the South. It was one of three sororities that I knew a lot about prior to rushing. I knew a few of the girls that went to my HS who had eventually joined Zeta. I was friendly with these girls and this sparked my interest for Zeta.
