Sorority Rush?

If you are going to a SEC school you definitely need them.

Hey, I just had another one of my brilliant ideas. Maybe we should make a sticky called "Schools where you absolutely positively need recs (no matter what the website says)."

I very much like that idea. Because I remember before I went through informal I was freaking out a little because I didn't even know what a rec was, and the website said I didn't have to have them (but don't they all?) Luckily I was able to ask a good friend who was in leadership in her sorority and she said that we don't really do them at Penn State. I didn't realize until later that recs are part of the the vast gulf that separates Northern school recruitment and Southern, but then again, neither do many PNMs. Which is why I second this idea.

As a recruitment advisor I would say get them regardless if you can. A recommendation will not hurt you.

Some sororities require that a PNM have one before extending a bid. Yes, a chapter can find one for you if the chapter wants you, but it is much easier on the chapters if you come in to recruitment already having one.
