Well our chapter USED to call our new members "Pearls" because that's our jewel, and our new members were the "jewels" of our sorority. But of course that is considered "hazing" or whatever!! Now, they have completely gone overboard....each new member class has a name based on term of pledgeship....ex, the first was the "Alpha" class...go figure
-- anyway, now we just had the Alpha Rho class -- well nationals said "No Way!" and we aren't allowed to call them by class name anymore because that is separating them from the rest of the group. So what are we supposed to say? "New Member Group of Spring 2003?" -- because isn't "spring 2003" technically a separation from the other new member classes? UGH -- I just really miss being a good 'ol pledge because that's what I was!! Now we are coming up with completely PC terms such as "The New Sisters that were formerly known as the Alpha Rho's"
I hate recruitment -- rush is definitely more fitting considering that is a perfect description of the week!
