Some, if not all of the sororities at USF have a New Member Preview, which is like a crush party. The idea is to introduce our new member class. This is how my sorority does it. Each member can invite individual fraternity men, then we go in to fraternity chapter meetings with invitations. Those men invited receive personal invitations, and the entire fraternity is also invited to attend. We usually hold this event at a club in Ybor City, and it's a semi-dressy event. Sisters wear black dresses and new members wear any kind of colored dress, so they stand out because it's their night! During the event, the new members are announced and escorted by their big sister. We either walk down a staircase, or down a runway through the middle of the place up to the club's stage. It's really fun, and gives the new members the spotlight. And since it's a crush party, the girl to guy ratio is definitely in our favor
Ours is called KD Kisses, Tri Delt's is Pearl Preview, ADPi's is Pi Passion...we all have cute names for it, but the guys don't care, as long as they're invited to all of them!
Some of the sororities also do the newspaper ad where they name all their new members, which is a really nice thing to see in our paper, since it rarely includes anything to do with Greek Life.
