Recruitment 2002

[APhiRattlerGal]

Hey ladies, just wanted to give you an update.
We just wrapped up with informal recruitment. I'm happy to say that we have 8 lovely new members. I'm really excited about this class. They seem to have the enthusiasm and spunk that I was hoping for! There were a couple of ladies who couldnt do it this semester but next semester will be better for them so i'm still happy about that! I hope everyone else's recruitment went well...keep updating us!!

Sorry to crash your board, ladies, but I wanted to wish you many congratulations on your Eta Theta chapter getting quota this year!

18 girls is a stupendous amount of women for San Francisco State, and I know that, working together, this fall will be a renaissance for Greek Life at our beloved alma mater!

Today is a VERY proud day for Alpha Phis and Alpha Gams at SF State. Go Syracuse Triad!

WAY TO GO ETA THETA!

Your sister chapter across the bay will be VERY inspired by the news! And I've heard how hard you've been working on COB too....you'll be at total in no time for sure! That will definitely be something to brag about....maybe at Founders Day????!!! Go for it...you can do it!

[SATX*APhi]

Woo hoo!!! Way to go Eta Theta!!

Also, may congratulations to all of the other chapters!! Everyone is doing an outstanding job!

(**many of these chapters were not quite at total before rush, allowing them to take over quota--and they are now well over total because of it! )

Hot of the Press:

In speaking with an alum. friend of mine who was at UCSB for bid matching:
Only four of 10 houses made quota of 31 - ALPHA PHI, AXO, ADPi and KKG. The exact numbers haven't been figured out yet (Laura maybe you can help?) But I think they rushed 2 or 3 on the campus - Which is HUGE for us. I am so proud of the girls - my little sis was the rush chair!!!


Now, on to Cal Poly SLO!

[bruinaphi]

Yes, as Delia stated, UCSB (Gamma Beta) did AWESOME! They have a spectacular new member class of 31. Yippeee!!

UCLA (Beta Delta) also had bid day today and pledged quota + 4 for 27 oustanding new members. A big BRAVO goes out to my chapter (not that I'm partial or anything).

Way to go Southwest Region.

I only have a few schools left this weekend: UCI, Pepperdine, Cal Poly SLO, and San Bernardino. Then it's COB time ladies...

Sorry for crashing your board, but .... I just wanted to share with you know just how much your Beta Theta chapter here at UBC has grown and prospered in just the past few years ... after a number of years with member numbers dwindling to under 8 members, your APhi sisters have really come together in the past couple of years (with the support of their amazing alumni) and have cultivated a wonderful sisterhood! This year, they are returning 16 or 17 very active members and from what I hear, did an AMAZING job throughout recruitment these past 11 days !! Though I don't know the numbers yet (the girls come through the doors at around noon today), I do know that UBC Panhellenic community has been very impressed with APhi's growth as a chapter over the past while. Way to go Beta Theta!!!

I have come to truly respect your A Phi sisterhood, due in large part both from your members here on GC, and also based on how Beta Theta has carried themselves over the past several years, regardless of numbers - it has always been about the quality of their new members, not the quantity.

I wish Beta Theta and all of your A Phi chapters only the very best during recruitment and in the upcoming year!!

Panhellenically,
