No frills recruitment ... what does that mean?

[KSUViolet06]

The general goal of no frills:

To focus less on stuff/decorations/outfits/skits/balloons/crafts and MORE on actual conversation with PNMs.

What it often became:

Kappa tattling on (example) Pi Phi because they have glitter on their tables and no decorations are allowed.

The transition time from frills to no frills in the mid2000 brought out the petty in all of us.

I like what Texas State does now - recruitment is held in hotel ballrooms. PNMs don't have to worry about the heat, or rain, each sorority is on a level playing field that concentrates the pnms' attention on things other than the house, and the houses don't have to be turned upside down for recruitment.
