My Live Spring Rush Story

[OHNOITSJESS]

So this is what i got back.....


Since Spring Recuitment is informal, Panhellenic does not really have anything to do with what the sororities do. The sororities do not have to tell Panhellenic when they are giving out bids or anything. New Members can be taken until March 28th, so there is really no way of knowing if the sororities will take new members up until then. If you would like, I could email the recruitment directors your name, phone number, and email address. If you would like me to do this, just let me know.

Also, just keep in mind that you could always participate in Fall Formal Recruitment to get a chance to meet with all eleven sororities.

i feel like i am trapped in a black hole..... with no sound or movement or anything....

I'm a little confused, you attended 2 events but have not yet heard anything back? Hmm. I would ask her to pass along your info and maybe they'll get back to you with a response.

Just so you know, it may not be every chapter's policy to notify girls if they have not been invited back or extended a bid. I know this isn't the best policy, but some chapters do assume that you'll just "get the hint" when no one gets back to you.

I hope you hear something soon either way.

Yeah, I know our chapter did it like that too. We would have a few open events, then have a couple invite only events and then hand out bids maybe the next day after that. In this case, no news is bad news. I would have the office e-mail my info and see if you get a more definitive response. It could be that they're slacking on giving out bids - it just depends on the chapter as to their timeline of doing things. I hope we hear a happy ending!!!

But in this case she doesn't know when bids were supposed to be handed out. I agree not everyone needs to be contacted, but the least a chapter could do is clearly define when the date of the bids will be extended. No one should be completely left in the dark. A simple "Friday by 4pm, if a bid is extended a sister will personally visit you/the MD will call you/the chapter will bum rush you in the street and sing a song in your ear, etc." will do.

Oh, I totally agree. Unfortunately, there's a large number of chapters that just don't say anything if someone isn't invited to join.
