No Frills Recruitment

From what I understand, recruitment @ UNT used to be a lot more "frilly" than it is now.. they had a skit day, and there basically balloons everywhere (from what an older delta told me last year)

For Fall 03, the campus panhellenic voted to make it less frilly... like they took out skit day (from what I heard was a great relief.. the chapters spent so much time focusing on rehersing the skit), they also made specific guidelines for decorations and what can/cannot be served to pnms during recruitment. I would say it's still pretty "frilly" though...

Interesting....At Tech, (well 3 years ago when I was still there), we had 2 skit days and all of the frills that go w/frilly (balloon arches, decorations galore, etc.) My old roommate was RVP and I was rush info mgr., so we spent late late nights at the lodge during and prior to recruitment. (not sure how we managed not to kill each other during that time...lol)

When I went through rush at Tech, there was a philanthrophy day, but there were no set 'rules' on it. At ADPi and 2 other houses, we did an arts and crafts project for the respective philanthropy, but a couple other houses did skits. There were no set rules, which I disagree with. If I recall correctly, my first year on our side of rush at ADPi, we changed the philanthropy day to a skit, just to stay competitive with the other sororities.

Not sure if all the 'frilly' stuff still takes place at Tech, but I'm guessing it does...
