Pie!Pie!Pie! MissCherryPie's Recruitment Story

[FSUZeta]

LouisaMay offered some good possible alternatives.

Is there an organization on campus that is related to your major? You might be able to meet some people and make some friends thru that avenue. Something else you might want to explore is volunteering on a committee such as homecoming, some other campus wide event, or with a campus org. that focuses on philanthropy, since that is an interest of yours.

I have a few orgs in mind: There are honor societies in my Major AND Minor on campus, and I have attended the open events for the community for one of them....the other hasn't had a meeting as of yet for this semester. There is also a social org that is recruiting as we speak, and they are involved with many activities on campus....

Let's see: I love (as hobbies) Pilates, dance, theatre, reading, travel and creative writing.

Alpha Psi Omega does not have a chapter in my state. I am wondering if the GL office, when they said that they had no interest in expansion, did that also include service orgs? I'd love to get that clarified, as this org sounds very much like something that I'd be interested in getting involved with.

I'd say which school I attend, if that wouldn't hurt my chances for COB....but if anyone already has figured it out and may know more about my school and clubs and such than I do....then feel free to send me a PM.

After a night's sleep....I guess that I'm gradually making peace with the situation. Sometimes, when you want something so badly enough....it doesn't happen.

No, a service organization would be through an Office of Student Activities. The Office at Greek Life manages the social fraternities and sororities. I'm sorry things didn't work out, but do contact the office of student activities-- there is bound to be a master list of campus organizations that they have on hand for orientations and interested students like you.

Just clarifying -- is that a typo or did you check for Alpha Psi Omega (the theatre honor society) instead of Alpha Phi Omega?

Really sorry things haven't worked out the way you hoped to so far, but it sounds like you're doing the right things to move on (and have a great attitude about it), and there will be many opportunities to help you get the most out of college. Good luck!
