Door Songs/Door Stacking

[adpiucf]

I never knew there was a name for it! LOL. At UCF, the windows are covered with sheets or tinfoil during recruitment at all of the sororities. We had formations at the door, but we didn't call it a door stack-- didn't use chairs or risers, either-- just arranged in height order, and had the shortest girls in front sitting on the floor, the next level up crouching, and so on, used the front stairs, etc.

Thanks! We did door songs/chants but were not allowed outside of the rooms (big ballrooms in the student center) particularly as there were four of these rooms right next to each other. And this would have been chaos! So I was having a hard time grasping how that worked.

At one campus I went to, I was told that most of the houses have front windows that raise from the bottom up so they can window-stack for rush.

We have songs and cheers that we can do while pairing girls off at the door, but we do not do door stacking since it is against our recruitment rules for sorority members to be outside the property while there's a party going on. KSU Panhellenic considers singing or chanting in the doorway to be technically "outside".

Wow, and I thought coming into the room and having all the girls standing in formation and smiling at you was creepy, but door stacking would scare the crap out of me. I got scared just looking at some of the pics!
