My Surprising Recruitment Story '11
I wanted to do this live a few weeks ago, but decided it would probably be best to wait and do it now. So, brief background story on me, I'm a freshman transfer student. I attended a medium-ish sized university last Fall/Spring, but transferred to a much smaller university this year. I went through recruitment at my previous university and received a bid from ABC sorority and accepted. I never went through initiation though and dropped from them. At my new school, I knew without a doubt I would want to go through the recruitment process again. So...here is where I will begin my story.
(There are three Panhellenic sororites at my university. I will call them Alpha, Beta, and Delta. These names have absolutely no reference to the real sorority name. They are just going to be used as reference.)
Day 1: This was Panhellenic Workshop day. We got to meet the Panhan Advisor and all the sororities' presidents. They told us a bit about each sorority and the Greek system. We received our rush shirts this day. Later that afternoon was "Meet the Greeks". All of the sororities and fraternities came to the Student Union building for a cookout and to meet the potential new members. This was also a time for us to get to know one another, as fellow rushees. I had my mind made up on this day what sorority I wanted. I had wanted this particular sorority since my last school. They were beautiful and super popular. I also was living temporarily on their hall in the dormitory. Therefore, I knew the girls very well and hung out with them on a regular basis.
