At Illinois State, serenading is a HUGE deal for frats & sororities both. Usually the women go first, traveling to each fraternity house. We did 2 songs which we changed the words to and had dance moves for(stronger by britney spears and j-lo's i'm real) the words were changed to cute lyrics referring to our house. we practiced for serenading twice a week for several weeks before we actually did it. We would get to the fraternity we were serenading(we usually did 6 houses or so per night), perform our first song, do "introductions" which consisted of each sister stepping forward and saying her name, year in school, major, availablity status, and then a cute "pick up" line. After that, she would give presents to any fraternity man she might know in the chapter, or hand out gifts from older girls(only the new fall pledge class takes part in serenading) after introductions, we did our 2nd song and that was it. The guys is the exact same except they always throw in "dirty" songs that make us cringe! I love getting presents at serenading! If you have a boyfriend in a fraternity it's like Christmas! it is also a wonderful way for the new girls to be introduced formally to the fraternity men on campus and vice versa. I know several of the other sororities on campus only do traditional songs, but i think our way is much more unique, fun, and entertaining.
