Facebook Status Updates on Recruitment

[DGLillyLover]

I love all the statuses (stati?) about choosing which house you want to rush. Do they think that they just don't go to the other houses or what?

[IUHoosiergirl88]

Some gems from Twitter that I found:

"Stuck in Starbucks behind a bunch of sorority sisters with an order for a million skinnies, non fats, and no whips. just need reg coffee NOW"

"Oh thats right, there is a Kappa Sigma & Sigma Kappa"

"I have a feeling VP-Nominee-Picking is a lot like Sorority Recruitment--complete with matching shirts, songs, and veiled language."

[KSUViolet06]

Other Twitter gems from several competitive recruitments:

"Just left XYZ. I vote NO. #sogross #ew #don'twant"

"OMG I so wish AB would just bid me now. I love them SOOOOO much."

I wonder if the first girl understands that she doesn't get a "vote." Bless her heart.

[WhiteRose1912]

I'm seeing more than one person on twitter refer to it as voting. Is this a thing now?

P1: I loveeee waiting in line for an hour. #stillnotthereyet (picture of women waiting in line to rank)

P2: @P1 is that for the bathroom? Hahaha

P1: @P2 hahah, no. It's to vote for a sorority..

As far as I'm aware, voting is definitely not a thing. PNMs are so silly.

I looked up a girl today whose profile picture is her in front of one of the houses here, with the caption 'can't wait to be a... '

Too bad your profile is your real name and your school and recruitment is going on at this moment. #notsmart

LOL I saw that too.

I also love how it's her "Official Twitter Page" and that she can be booked/contacted through her FB.

(Senusret I should be really happy that she shares her name with a character from Young & the Restless)

In my dream world, I'd be able to friend her and post "That's nice because you're certainly not going to be a (my sorority) now."

Or any other sorority...haha. Why these girls don't get that we do every kind of possible research before asking them to join our sisterhood is beyond me.

I cannot believe some of these tweets/statuses! I figured it was common sense not to post about recruitment, but sadly, I guess I was mistaken...

Dakota Fanning and Miranda Cosgrove are going through recruitment at USC? How strange would it be to have them as your sisters, I still remember them as little babies!

Here are a few HILARIOUS tweets I found:

"Omg recruitment week starts today I'm so excited. By the end of this I won't be lying when I say I'm the drunkest sorority girl at the party"

"All these buses on campus that say "Sorority Recruitment" should say "Fraternity Procurement." #pimpin'"

"Somebody please tell me where I can get a pair of fake Jacks. I'm not spending 150 bucks on sandals for sorority rush"

"Dudes say they're relieved they aren't a chick cause of pregnancy, I'm relieved I'm not a chick cause of Sorority Rush Week that would blow."

"Iowa City be warned- sorority rush starts in a week. The heel per-capita rate is about to skyrocket."

"can a thug rush for a sorority?"

"Just drove past sorority rush, won't be long till those girls get #railed"

"Telling me I cant go out during rush week is like telling me to stop throwing up my sorority sign when I'm blackout..Im gunna do it anyways."

To be fair, that one was from a ZTA at USC (S. Carolina). LOL

It makes so much more sense now. I was thinking it was a PNM who thought she needed them to be accepted or something. I wouldn't want to spend $150 on a pair of shoes either!

[simply_stacey]

Just saw this one on Twitter and it cracked me up.
If I was the leader of a sorority, I'd finish the introductory rush speech to the girls with, "May the odds be ever in your favor."

University of Southern California? They must be registered under an assumed name. USC looks poised to have a big recruitment.
