I'm so nervous for my friends DD going through. Did they get their lists this morning or do they get them before tonight? My DD is a junior in a house but she is studying abroad so she usually gives me info! Good luck to any of your girls going though!

I believe they will get their lists from their Rho Gammas this afternoon. I cannot imagine getting your list in the morning and then having to go to class- especially if you are disappointed by the list!

This one can be a big cut sometimes!

[jla21]

makes sense!
thanks!

I'm gonna be on the other side of recruitment this year for the first time (I'm a a much smaller school where you don't need recs or anything.) I can't imagine separating the rounds into weekends or how crazy the ranking gets.

To the PNMs and parents out there, remember to treat your list as a fresh canvas. Go in and give everyone a chance.

Article in yesterday’s IDS mentions a few new/changed rules for this year’s recruitment.

I'm amused that the woman they interviewed about the "positive" changes is still referring to recruitment as "rush".

Hadn't thought about it, but how do you use "recruitment" in the past tense as a verb? She said "when I rushed." "When I went through recruitment" is a mouthful and
"When I recruited" sounds extremely awkward to me.

[FSUZeta]

When I recruitmented (lol)

[Cookiez17]

I mean people nowadays use the terms recruitment and rush in an interchangeable manner. It's going to be a while before people use only one.

When I new membered....

[Cookiez17]

Oh god carnation I'm rolling! Because I grew up in a house with only boys it was called a pledge and rush (my dad was in a fraternity in college and my brothers were in the same chapter at the same uni!) so I'm honestly still getting used to NPC terms.

[ivyrose2]

LOL. Seems like the only term you don't hear much is pledge, but I still hear "rush" a bunch. And, can't figure why it's not ok to call someone a "pledge" but ok to call new members "babies" ? I'd rather be a pledge than be called a "baby". Maybe it's my age. Seems like it's raining and getting colder this weekend-good luck to the PMN's! Hang in there!

[Titchou]

The national NPC orgs do not support the use of the term "baby." Now we all know that things like this are hard to get rid of on the chapter level.
