And relax
Both of these cannot be stressed enough!! Practice, practice, practice your conversational skills, on your family, in your GLO, even in line at the grocery store! Be able to talk to both kings and commoners (as my mama always says). If you need to, have two or three short but funny stories "memorized" that you can fall back on - like when you signed up for Class A thinking it was Class B but you met your boyfriend, or the Psych Prof that asked you to show your ID and you read it as Freud's id, and thought he was a pervert - that sort of thing.

And do relax! PNMs can sense fear just as easily as anyone else. You're already IN your sorority. You are talking to someone who would like to be in your sorority. Be gracious and calm.

I'd like to add one thing: PLEASE gargle or use breath mints between each and every round!!
