i missed out freshman year because i had a job that didn't allow me the time off for penn state recruitment (it's like two weeks long) and then i joined a service sorority but i do not get a sisterhood experience out of it. it is completely club-like to me....but it's not an associate chapter of our panhel, so I decided I'd do formal recruitment this fall.


Well then our chapter was asked to join as an associate chapter and so I waited til after we were SUPPOSED to vote to sign up for recruitment...when we didn't vote when we were going to, I didn't sign up because I knew I couldn't do both. Then that next chapter our president who apparently didnt do her homework in the first place said we couldnt join panhel because of their bylaws and that we wouldnt be voting.

At this point, it was too late to sign up for recruitment. In the end I really screwed myself over by not just signing up, but $40 being thrown away if our service org did join is just a bit much money for a college student, however I am still upset our president knew about the bylaw thing by the end of the week and I could have signed up.


That is my difficult situation and why things are not working out for me. I am still incredibly hopeful that I will get a chance in the spring, but here it is only informal in spring and not all chapters participate....so I'm kinda stuck :-/

So you couldn't rush because you thought your service group was going to become an assoc. member? That sounds like a tough situation. How many chapters are doing spring recruitment? Do alot of them participate every year? I mean, with THAT many chapters, I'm sure you'd have quite a few options for spring.
