Recolonizing - How does it work?

[CaffeinatedPNM]

For those who read/responded to my previous post about Informal, thank you for the information. I have gotten in contact with both my Greek friends and the Greek office, so we'll see how that goes in a few months.

((And for those who might want to know, I am looking at a service fraternity that another friend of mine is in. She speaks very highly of it so I though might as well give it a go and get out there!))

Alright, so currently I am waiting for Spring semester to start to see who (if anyone) participates in Spring recruitment. I will definitely be looking into that as it gets closer.

In the mean time I have been hearing rumors (both on GC, from my school's Greek Office, from the GLO itself, and from my Greek friends) that a sorority will be recolonizing on my campus in the coming year or so (I've heard conflicting dates so not sure of the date).

I remember reading a story on GC about a girl going through recruitment for a sorority that was recolonizing, but I can't seem to find it. The search function isn't bringing up anything, and neither is Google. So I come to the lovely ladies of GC in hopes that you might be able to shed some light on how recolonizing works? I assume it is very different from Formal recruitment and may be something closer to informal?

Also, when -GLO- returns, if they do, I won't be a freshman anymore, obviously. I think I remember reading something about recolonizing chapters wanting girls from all grades? Is this true or is it just wishful thinking?

Once again, I do apologize for asking a question that's probably been asked at least a dozen times, and I'm certain that at the bottom of this thread is going to be at least one link to a thread that will help me understand how recolonizing works.

Any information is always welcome. :]

Thank you.
