After my unhappy ending...

I tend to think that it is worth it. You really never know if you'll get a bid if you don't try. The worst that can happen is that you don't get one.

About your question: Sure there are things that look good on resumes (every chapter tends to have some activities that they think "oh wow" when they see that a PNM is involved in them). However, a PNM's resume and how she presents herself on paper is only part of recruitment. Actvities alone aren't going to get you a bid. Example: Miss Pageant Queen could have a stellar resume but come off as Regina George 2.0 in person...

Very true, Miss KSU.

So I take it the advice is basically telling me to find something I'm really interested in on campus, look in myself and see what I can make better for next year, and meet some girls/guys in the Greek system and make friends?

Oh, and get more recs.

Yes?
