FSU Winterfest 2013 (informal recruitment)

[FSUZeta]

For a girl to receive a ZTA bid, she must have a recommendation. Your friends (especially if they joined this past fall) may not realize this. I am an alumna, and have been an advisor to several chapters(General Advisor, VPI advisor, Ritual advisor and numerous years as a Recruitment advisor) in various parts of the country and every girl who received a bid to ZTA had a recommendation-as others have said, it is a national requirement of ours. Additionally, as others have said, often PNMs do not realize that an alumna took the time to write a recommendation for them, and it may be an advisor in a back room doing it for a girl that has no rec. that the chapter is just in love with, but at FSU the majority of successful PNMs have recs.

Since you appear to feel comfortable with having no recs. for spring informal, I guess you did not have recs. for fall. Perhaps this is why fall recruitment did not work out the way you had hoped. I would think that someone who did not receive a bid would evaluate the plan she had for fall 2012 recruitment, and change those things that she has the power to change.
