Do sororities go on trips together?

[FSUZeta]

some chapters hold sisterhood retreats, where the chapter might go away for the weekend, or part of the weekend-they ordinarily charter buses(for liability reasons).

During school breaks groups of sisters might take a trip together. Sometimes groups of friends within the chapter will go on a cruise, or skiing, or on to the beach-sometimes they organize if by pledge class. These are strictly voluntary and are organized by individuals, they are not "Official" sorority trips.

Thank you! I figured that sororities don't do trips nationally, but it would be nice to just get ideas if I get a bid into a sorority so I can suggest things to do and places to go to get to know everyone better.

I think that you need to take a step back. Unless you were a world-class expert on something with knowledge/experience with something that a lot of people would flock to and want your feedback on, I would hold off on planning to educate and encourage members of a sorority I was pledging until I was a member - and an experienced one at that.

Chances are, the chapters on your campus have programming in place to help new members and existing members "bond". In addition, the very process of becoming a new member (and subsequently, an active member) should provide lots of opportunities to get to know each other.

After becoming a member, you can join committees or run for an executive board position and then make suggestions (every sorority is different, so terms and formal positions for this type of role may vary). But until then, you might hold off on trying to find ways for the chapter to "bond".
