Rather than a full booth, they also could have had girls from other chapters just there supporting, like, maybe there is a welcome done by all groups or women from other groups act as "rho gammas" or serving refreshments or something else. Feature only the groups giving out bids, but show other women in their letters helping out.

Please clarify. They invited you to an event?

after you were done talking to the girls in each sorority they would either ask your name and write it down, or ask you to sign their list. most of the ones that asked this were recruiting girls for spring, however there were a few that weren't doing spring recruitment (according to the pamphlet) that still asked you to sign in... i just was curious why

When I was a collegian, we had a guest book each PNM signed. The guest book signing did not imply anything positive or negative, it was just a way to see who came to our informal parties.

It might also have something to do with their national's requirements and having to have a record of every rush event - even one that won't result in issuance of any bids.

That's three different answers, and the right one could be all or none.

I think this is a stellar idea. Now, from your mouth the UF Panhellenic's ears. I hope all the smaller chapters can get the results they're hoping for.
