Things You Wish You'd Said/Done Differently During Recruitment
This applies to people on both ends of the recruitment (PNMs and initiated members). What are some things you would change about your recruitment if you could go back? I'll start with a few of my own:
I wish I would've asked the question "what do you look for in a PNM" more often. It might have given me a better idea of where I should focus.
In retrospect, joining the "Rush Fall 09" facebook group of each fraternity I liked may or may not have been a good idea. Jury's still out there.
Mix up discussion topics more. The guys have probably heard a million kids talking about how they want to make a difference in the world. They're college kids, you're a college kid; talk about football or something more casual.
Don't rule out a group just because one group you like doesn't like them. Anyone who rejects you for who your friends are probably isn't worth it.
Try to get to know everyone at least somewhat. Knowing the President on good terms isn't enough to get you in.
And yes some of these are obvious but I'm sure I'm not the only one who's made some mistakes in their recruitment.
