Hello GC, I'm a longtime lurker who has finally decided to post
I will be a Junior this year, and I'm also going to be a Gamma Chi for Recruitment 2014. This has got me reminiscing on my own recruitment experience, and I figured this would be the perfect place to post and relive it!
I attend a medium sized public school in the Midwest, and the whole Greek community and recruitment process is much smaller and relaxed than at larger schools. However, a large chunk of the student body is Greek. We have 5 NPC sororities that participate in formal recruitment and one very small local sorority. I had done some research before I went in, and thought I had some idea of which sororities I would enjoy being in, but still went into the process with a decidedly open mind. NONE of my family was greek, so all of my information came from my best friend and her mother, who had been President of her sorority back in the day. At our school, recruitment occurs a week after classes begin. I actually convinced my roommate to rush. We were both kind of nervous and had no idea what to expect. Of course, in my 18 year old brain, I thought I'd just scour the internet for information and advice to prepare, but I realized after extensive searches on the recruitment process that I simply would not understand what it was like until I experienced it! All I could do was dive in with a positive attitude and open mind. After meeting my Gamma Chi and rush group, I was super excited and ready to find my home for the next four years! I rushed in Fall 2012.
