I have been in contact with women from the other sororities but none have let me know if they've sent the recs in yet. This all has me very stressed out and I haven't even begun to get my outfits together! Anyway, I would love any advice about recruitment, especially from LSU women! Thanks so much!

A friendly reminder to the women writing your recs that sorority recruitment begins in August is not out of order. Ask if there is anything else that they might need from you. It's a subtle way of saying, "Get your ass in gear, please, ma'am." Your recs are of utmost importance at LSU. Be very polite. Add a thank you at the end, as well. Do not forget to send a Thank You note to your rec writers at the end! Good Luck, and GEAUX Tigers!

This is great advice for following up with most anything!
