What do you think about this? I've always secretly longed to hold recruitment the way fraternities do, as though many girls would probably go to a few select houses over others, it would eliminate stress on both ends and the confusing "rush" feelings.

For instance, in my chapter we got more girls in the spring during informal recruitment because we were open, relaxed and girls really go to know US, not an edited-for-recruitment version of us.

What? Sorority recruitment was designed by a bunch of women, and it has been around since before the age of computers.
