sorry forgot something. is it looked at weirdly if you tap the girls knee your talking to while talking (not weirdly, just like I use my hands when I talk and I think I said something like "oh my god I know.." and tapped my hand on her knee for like..ehh emphasis I guess). I know they arent supposed to touch you.. so i was curious. Also, is it bad to talk about silly things. I kept relating to girls about topics like cheese cake and celebrity gossip magazine things and silly stuff..but stuff they seemed really interested (like genuinely, not the whole "scripted" interest).

Honor societies count. However, having TONS of activities is great, but that's generally not the MOST important part of recruitment.

I don't know about touching. That depends on the individual person. Some people are weirded out by being touched by strangers in ANY situation.

In terms of conversation, talking about silly things in itself isn't bad. Members don't want to have scripted and serious conversations all the time in recruitment. Conversation is one of the most important parts of recruitment. A girl can be amazing with GPA, activities and such on paper, but if she can't hold a conversation, she's probably not going to get a bid.

I suggest reading this thread about conversation and recruitment: http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...t=conversation
