Auburn Recruitment Schedule

[SoCalGirl]

Shouldn't more parties ideally mean more one on one time with the PNMs?

Do you mean because each party will be smaller? At first I thought you meant that you thought there would be a whole 'nother round, rather than one extra party per round, but you're probably just that much quicker than I am.

I'm a little confused at how it equals six extra parties. Does Auburn have six rounds? It's going to be exhausting, no doubt. Think about first round conversations repeating another time. (ETA: dur, I looked at the schedule and in some rounds it's two extra parties a round. I see the six now.)

I think this may have come up in a different recruitment thread when we talked about how having a extra party per round could help smaller chapters because it would allow smaller rush groups? Does it increase the number of girls that chapters can invite back to each round too?

If everyone gets a break but they are at different times, the girls without full party schedules won't stand out as much.

Just out of curiosity, how big were the first round parties last year?

There are 2 open parties for each of the first 2 rounds, then one open party for each of the final 2 rounds. 2+2+1+1=6

not sure about auburn, but the way i understand it is that the pnms are the only ones getting the break, and not everyone has a break at the same time, except the first round when they are going around in rush groups together.

I have nothing to add, except that my intern is a Alpha Gamma Delta at Auburn. This will be her first recruitment as a member and she's very excited.

They did that at my daughter's school last year, too. They just added one party to the first day because there were so many girls going through recruitment. They didn't know about it until a day or two before rush started, though.
