Hey, all!
I know you're probably sick of these "how do you start a local sorority" threads...but I specifically joined this site to seek advice on it... so I would appreciate any help you are willing to give.
My (potential) sorority has already been approved and recognized as an interest group by the school and we just went before the Panhellenic Council to present who we are and why we want to become a sorority. We'll find out soon whether or not we are approved for associate membership for a year by Panhell...after that we will become an official, recognized sorority pending Panhell's approval a second time.
We already have our motto, colors, philanthropy, letters, mascot (though it is currently being reevaluated), our advisor...the basics.
Basically I am a hardcore Capricorn so I'd really love to start planning early so we aren't pushed for time and thus can do the best job that we can...I am here to ask for help/advice on the following:
1. How to formulate a pledging process once we are approved.
2. How to create rituals when starting from scratch.
and 3. ...as lame as it sounds...I would love help with coming up with a cheer/song or two. Or at least guidance to how one goes about adding rhythms etc to poetry and making it sound like a cheer and not...chanting Dickinson or something haha.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope to hear from some of you!
PS: This is a semi but not really related question...but I am torn between wanting to be pledge educator should we get approved and wanting to be a big and have a little. I'm currently a junior so I would have to choose between the two. Advice? Which do you find is more rewarding to experiencing the Greek life experience?
