A Texan's Arkansas recruitment story

[WPSPNM]

Hello! I’m an incoming freshman at the University of Arkansas. I thought I would share my recruitment story with all of you since you seem to like them. I also think it may be therapeutic. Orientation and open parties start tomorrow, and I haven’t been this nervous about something in a long time.
I’m going to be the first in my extended family to go through recruitment, and I’m from Texas (currently on the drive up for move-in day J ) For now I’ll share my knowledge/thoughts going in for each sorority. But don’t worry- if there’s one thing I have learned from this website it is that I HAVE to have an open mind if I want recruitment to go well.
The sororities at Arkansas are Chi Omega, Delta Delta Delta, Alpha Delta Pi, Zeta Tau Alpha, Alpha Omicron Pi, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Kappa Delta, and Pi Beta Phi, with Alpha Chi Omega and Phi Mu colonizing. I’m going to change the names to cities/towns in Texas, to show my love.
In no particular order the houses will now be known as:
Austin
Dallas
Ft. Worth
Houston
Lubbock
El Paso
Arlington
Abilene
Denton
Galveston
AUSTIN- Going in, I have really high hopes for Austin. From the pictures I’ve seen on the Facebooks of girls I know in this sorority, it looks like they have such a fun sisterhood. Their mascot and philanthropy hold a special place in my heart for personal reasons, too.
DALLAS- Dallas has my favorite house. I don’t know much about them as I don’t know anyone in this house. I’m excited to learn more about them, and get to see inside their house!
FT. WORTH- From what I’ve seen from girls I know, this house has so far been my favorite. I know it is very competitive though. The sisters all seem so close and dedicated to each other.
HOUSTON- Another house I don’t know much about. From what I have heard they have one of the best sisterhoods on campus though. I am excited to see what the sisters love about their sorority.
LUBBOCK- This is the house I know the least about. In fact I know nothing so there is no more to put here. Looking forward to learning about them.
DENTON- A colony. A family friend is involved in this so I am especially interested in it. Can’t wait for the presentations.
EL PASO- El Paso is one of my favorites. I love their philanthropy, and when I think “El Paso,” I think sorority. I know they do some really fun things to support their philanthropy and I would love to be involved in them.
ARLINGTON- One of my very favorites. I don’t know exactly what it is about this house that draws me to it. The only thing is that this house has a very odd philanthropy. Well, I think it’s odd, at least. I hope I make it to philanthropy day at this house at least, just so I can learn about what they do to support it! I’m very interested.
ABILENE- This is the house I have been least excited about- nothing about it has really caught my eye. BUT, something(s) about this house HAS drawn hundreds of girls to it, so I look forward to learning more about it.
GALVESTON- Another colony. I have no idea what to expect. Again, looking forward to the presentation.
Ok, clean slate time. Orientation starts bright and early tomorrow morning. I look forward to sharing more with everyone!
