My recruitment story has a perfectly happy ending.
I really, really (times that by infinity) wanted to go Greek. That's not going to happen at my school. But....I realized that ALL of the current Undergrads, Grad Students and Alumni/a of my school make up our own (Humongous) Fraternity. Complete with cherished traditions, rituals and history stretching back over a century.
But....I was thinking some more (as I always do) on how to offer closure to myself, under my own terms....and pulling some advice from my friends.
I'm definitely part of the XYZ Nation, as we call the students at our school.
So...even though I'm sure many may have an issue with this: I've chosen to select the Greek Letter Equivalent of my School's initials and. Sure...laugh....but it's something that means a lot to me. No matter where I go, no matter what I do....I'll always be forever a part of:
Upsilon Nu Rho
Which spells out my school: The Unversity of Nevada, Reno.
I'm not afraid to let everyone know where I attend school anymore. Since I'm not going to pursue recruitment at my school in the future....finding my own way and closure, on my own terms is what matters in this case to me.
If you want to know whether I'll wear letters....no, I'm not
that meshuggah. But...this is the end of my story and I did end up Greek in the end. But....I do have plans for where I'll take this: and a paddle all my own to decorate. lol.
Thanks for following my recruitment story and offering such fantastic advice....I'll stick around on the boards, and keep on keeping on.
PS: Yes....I plan to pursue other clubs and orgs both on and off campus. They'll just be that much sweeter to me.
