Yes! A PA thread! I'm looking forward to this one, there are so many from which to choose. Do you know about how large the quota has been in the past?

Good luck! I will root for my friends in the Syracuse Triad since there isn't an AGD chapter. No matter where you go, I am hoping for a great time and good result for you!!

A rush thread with Penn State and ASA. Think I've died and gone to heaven.

Penn State rush is HELL on both sides - the PNMs have 20 "open houses", then 14 1st rounds then 7 2nd rounds then 3 prefs. (if you go to the maximum number of parties, that's 44 parties!) You're tromping up and down hills (the dorms with the sorority suites are set on a VERY steep hill), and spending a LOT of time attending parties (not to mention all the time you spend obsessing) and trying to keep track of everywhere you've been and who you've met.

The sororities have it almost as bad - they have to sit through 44 parties and 3 long late-into-the-night rounds of selections (and Penn State uses NO photos and NO resumes, mind you).

On the positive side, with 20 national sororites, then no matter if you're shy or loud, preppy or eccentric, if you keep an open mind, you're bound to find some group where you fit right in.

Good luck Petal, and ENJOY!!!

What do you mean that Penn State uses no photos or resumes? Do you mean that photos and resumes aren't submitted with the recruitment applications? Surely the individual sororities still use photos and resumes as part of the recommendation process, if they so choose. (Even if that isn't as common as in other parts of the country.)

Penn State's Panhel does not accept photos or resumes. If a particular sorority uses them, it is up to that sorority.

Good lord, I can't even imagine going through recruitment with 20 houses. Wow!

Good luck with recruitment!

And as LionTamer said, with 20 sororities, everyone is bound to find one that fits them!
