pref day ceremonies

[1964Alum]

We were a strong recruiting chapter, but even so, always lost a few to other strong recruiting chapters.

Do you all do your homework on the young women who are coming to your pref? I was really wavering after pref night but one thing that swung me over to Chi O was that so many of the sisters knew me by name. Without looking at my name tag. And greeted me warmly by name, often saying something that let me know that they knew who I was as an individual. Some greeted me that way whom I hadn't really talked with before. The other group had used primarily one sister to rush me all the way through, and I didn't feel like I knew many of the other sisters as well. Both were great groups, but I felt more of a group connection to the group I pledged.

At the Chi Omega pref and also parties before pref, I was also introduced to other PNMs. It just seemed like a more normal gathering.

IMO, sincerity is very important as well as many sisters connecting to that PNM as an individual.
