Heard the DG one cost between 200-400k

In these two videos are the women asking viewers to join a sorority, or to go on vacation for four years?

A high-end department store in my area is currently using, in their tv commercials, the same music a lot of these sorority videos play to sell the idea of shopping at a mall to young women. I have to laugh every time I see/hear it.

You accidentally added an extra 0, right? Please tell me that's the case.

That’s what I was wondering! In a typical big chapter, that’s going to add $1500-2000 to each active’s annual dues. Unless someone’s daddy is paying for them.


Bravo IU Sigma Kappa! Powerful video and message.

I doubt it is a chapter budgeted item. It's probably parent or alumnae funded.

At IU, the recruitment videos definitely part of the recruitment budget. Chapters have been known to pay for drone footage, a professional video editor, a production company to create the concept, original music, etc.
