Hello, all! Today was a pre-rush/recruitment event for those of us rushing and I LOVED it. Each sorority had a table with a display outside in a quad at my school and I was able to meet with each one and ask questions. I’m going to post what my first impressions of each sorority was. Also, just a note, I don’t think they call our group leaders anything special other than “leader.” It works the same way here, you find them and aren’t aware what sorority they’re in..all that good stuff! I wasn’t able to visit 1 sorority (Hermes) because I did not have time. Since it was just a pre-rush event, I’ll be able to get to know them more on Thursday (rush beings). Overall, my impressions of each sorority were pretty good, but some stood out in my mind. Here we go..
Apollo- My impression of Apollo was AMAZING. This was the first sorority I checked out and I even went back to their table again to know more. The girl talking to me was so nice and we talked about different things for about 20 minutes! We really clicked and I enjoyed them the most.
Athena- Well, Athena did not give me a great impression. I introduced myself to a girl, shook her hand and then she literally said, “Umm..well..uhhh, I’m not really sure what to do..let me find someone who can tell you stuff..” The conversation seemed kind of forced and really not enjoyable.
Zeus- I also really loved Zeus. The girl I talked to was so nice and friendly. I only heard rumors and things about this particular sorority, but I chose to ignore them and went in with an open mind. I’m so happy I did. I talked to one girl for a while and others from the group kept coming up to me and introducing themselves. They just seemed very natural and friendly.
Poseidon- This group did not leave an impression that I remember that well. I talked to the girls a little, but none really seemed interested. The girl I talked to kept looking away and wouldn’t really look me in the eye. I can’t really base my impression of 1 girl, but I wasn’t exactly thrilled.
Chaos- LOVED them, too! Chaos was very nice and friendly and all the girls seemed very excited for recruitment. I talked to a few different girls in this group and all were delightful. It was nice not to talk about just strictly sorority things like rush and how nervous everyone is. I was able to talk about my hometown, fashion and a ton of things. I really like them.
Aphrodite- This group was pretty nice, too! I talked to 2 girls who really seemed to be proud of their organization. The girl who shook my hand, though practically broke it! Haha! Otherwise, the conversation flowed and was not forced. It was a good experience.
Hermes- Unfortunately, I did not meet Hermes. I’ll be sure to tell you more about them when recruitment starts.
Based on first impressions, my rankings so far are..
1. Apollo
2. Chaos
3. Zeus
4. Aphrodite
5. Poseidon
6. Athena
Hermes-unranked.
