Your favorite party or theme?

I thought most of the skits were cheesy. What I remember is the conversations I had with the members. The skit themes didn't sway me, though I can say the general morale/enthusiasm I definitely DID notice.

My favorite skits were Sigma Night Live at my own chapter and Grease at AChiO, but ironically, both have changed their skits to something else since I went through. Their skits stuck out to me not because of the themes, but because of the energy the chapter put into them.

I liked DG's pref ceremony with the leis. Pretty standard "sister wears an object, gives it to the PNM and PNM takes it off and makes a wish" preference, but the leis are nice, and the new members wear them on bid day. I know many DG chapters around the country do this.

I can't emphasize conversation enough in preference, or any round really. I had really great pref experiences at DG and SigKap because of the conversation. If you're feeling the chapter because of who you've met, you won't be put off by a so-so ceremony. Likewise, if your conversation is so-so or poor, a great ceremony usually won't persuade PNMs to join.

For philanthropy round, I liked how Zeta had their house totally decked in pink (and had cute martini glasses filled with pink lemonade and rimmed with pink sugar). Again, I had a great time at Zeta during philanthropy round because I had great conversation, the aesthetics of the party were just...aesthetic.
