Recruitment Threads for All 26 Sororities and More!

I'm out of town and bored- my appointment that I came here for isn't for another 8 hours...so I present you, the master list of recruitment stories! Represented at least once are all 26 chapters. Stories come from all eras, schools large and small, southern, northern, east, west, public and private, various eras, writers succinct and verbose. I've tried to pick stories that capture the emotions of the process, from girls who have a happy experience throughout, to ones who face disappointment and heartbreak, but learn to love their group anyway. At the end, I've thrown in some according to era, and then my all time fave. I hope you enjoy!

Thanks for doing this post! Since Theta Phi Alpha only has one story listed, would it be possible to add the story I submitted in the fall 2017...I listed it under sorority recruitment (I think) instead of recruitment stories. I'm the author (Shellylou) so maybe it can easily be found that way. Thanks again!

Wait... what? Confused:why do you want TPA to get two stories? Every other NPC sorority has one story. NB: I didn't look at what sororities were represented in Part II. Disappointed that *winter* doesn't think Chuck Norris is the greatest recruitment story of all time. Oh well, it's her thread, her choices And I will concede that her "greatest" pick is pretty outstanding.

Everyone can feel free to add to the thread! I think it's too late to edit my posts at this point.

I'm hitting 15 years on April 12th. It's crazy to think about.
When thinking about my initiation, it feels like it was yesterday.

I liked your story because it was different. I tried to use a variety of stories. PS My friend's daughter is a Tri Sigma active (sophomore) and she loves it!

I know that the general consensus on the infamous “pink sequin” story was that it was completely fabricated, or at the least, so heavily embellished (with sequins?) as to basically be fiction, but I was always sorry she never finished the story. My personal theory is that the OP started off just changing a few details for the sake of privacy, as people do, but it sort of went off the rails somewhere along the way. I, for one, was dying to find out what the deal with “Cowgirl Callie” was.
