Today, I was talking to my brother about sorority recrutment (Background: He was a KA from B'ham southern 20 or so years ago and I am an ADPi from UNA 10 or so years ago)
He told me he thought it was rediculous (sp?) the way sororities recruit. As I listened to him I realized it is kind of crazy, I mean why is fraternity recruitment so much more relaxed then sorority recruitment? Is it the women doing this to ourselves? I know it is to late to change the way it is done. . . but, man the recruits are petrified they won't get into the "right" house and the sisters are scared they won't get the "right" girls. (and quota and total why do we do this to ourselves?)
I just wish formal recruitment was set up a friendlier then it is. I mean fraternities have all of the guys, that are interested, "come by" the house and see if they fit in, after the first night if the brothers like the guy they basically offer him a bid then and there. Yea, I know the "Pledge" doesnt actually get a "BID" until the end of the recruitment period but they know where they are going the day the brothers tell them. Also, there is no "dirty rushing," they can invite a guy over any time they want. But, with sororities "GOD FORBID" there is any contact with a pm before or during recruitment.
Just a little complaint from an alumnae. Sorry to lay all of that on yall. I do love recruitment I just wish it was a little bit easier on all involved.
