Awaiting Recruitment

Tink16 · #1 08-26-2002, 09:44 PM

So today its like Aug 26 and there is still like a week and a half until recruitment starts, and 2 weeks until bid day!! My school started recruitment a lot later this year in order to make sure the ladies were sure recruitment was for them. I am so anxious! Is there anyone else still awaiting recruitment?

Hi! my rush doesn't start until the third week of september. I can't wait! I'm so jealous of all the girls who are already done! Congratulations to everybody and wish the rest of us good luck!!!

What school do you go to Tink? And which sororities do they have?

I'm still waiting--rush doesn't start until late September at URI! I have a really good feeling about it. I'm so excited, and I just know these weeks are gonna drag by so slowly! I was talking with a girl who came into my work the other day about her sorority and she really encouraged me to rush, plus I've been following all the rush threads on GC...so I'm all pumped up!

BEST OF LUCK to everyone else rushing, and CONGRATS to all the new sorority members!!

Just think how difficult it is for the schools that recruit in January! The school I advised had "Spring" Rush and the poor pnms had to trudge around campus in middle of January in big heavy coats and boots worn over their cute rush outfits. Poor girls.

Anyway, good luck with recruitment, it will be here faster than you think!

Hey Valley Girl,

I see that you are from Bakersfield. Are you at CSU Bakersfield by any chance? If so I hope you'll really consider Phi Sigma Sigma. All my sisters of Epsilon Epsilon Chapter are the best.

Division Conference was held at CSU Bakersfield in March. I drove up the night before and decided to eat a hotdog from one of the all night stores near CSUB. Let me just say that I discovered what true sisterhood meant when sisters I didn't even know called me to see how I was doing after ending up at the hospital with food poisoning.

I think with all the sisters of the division calling my house to say they hoped I felt better, did I need anything, etc. brought home to my parents all that I had tried to tell them about sorority life but they couldn't understand.

Well good luck in recruitment and I'm sure most of us GCrs can't wait to see who you decide to bid.

We have recruitment in February and it is just killing me to wait that long! Thank goodness we can do COB this fall and at least have the excitement of some new KD ladies!

I'm still waiting, although it's getting closer and closer. This Thursday is our Orientation meeting, and then the first round starts on Monday. When I first found out about rush, I thought the second week of school was really early to start, but it turns out that it feels like it's taking forever!

I'm an active of AST and our recruitment starts on Sept. 4th! Yipppeeee!!!

I feel like my rush isn't until FOREVER.... I'll be rushing in late September/early October.

XOXO,
Annie.

Old Dominion University recruitment starts on Thursday, September 5th, and ends on Sunday, September 8th. We already have 42 women signed up. We expect more to sign up as we get closer to Thursday. We have five sororites on campus:

Alpha Phi
Alpha Xi Delta
Delta Zeta
Pi Beta Phi
Zeta Tau Alpha

I can let you know my side from a Rho Chi (yes we are still called that.) But maybe there are some other GLO or PNM on here!

Wow, for selfish reasons I'm so glad that rush is at different times at different schools. That means I'll have rush threads to read through October and then again in January!

Go NPC recruitment!

For all you pnms waiting and waiting, just think of all the great information you have been able to get from reading the recruitment threads of the other girls on this board who are going through or have just completed their recruitments! You are learning so much from their experiences.

I have to say I have been so impressed with all of the pnms that have posted and encourage those still waiting to post as well. I've laughed and cried with all of your experiences and wish all of you the best!

MelissaS · #14 09-03-2002, 05:03 PM

Only a few weeks left!! I moved into my dorm yesterday, and I met my suitemate..she's an AXiD and is just the sweetest! I talked to her a lot about rush and she was really encouraging. She said there were sophomores in her pledge class, so I'm not too worried about that. Anyways, just wanted to update! I can't wait to rush and of course to make a rush thread!

violets · #15 09-03-2002, 05:13 PM

Melissa,
We can't wait to hear from you! Definitely start a rush thread when you begin recruitment, I know the other rush thread addicts and I would love to hear every detail!

Good luck!
