With a new year comes a new semester, and with a new semester comes sorority recruitment! I went through sorority recruitment at the University of Kentucky this fall, and it was most definitely one of the craziest times of my life. Throughout the week, I found myself hearing some of the same things over and over and over. So with spring recruitment starting soon, I'm going to share my list of the top 20 things I heard during recruitment.

From Gamma Chi's

1. "Trust the system" (this is definitely the most true but hardest thing to remember)

2. "SMILE GIRLS"

3. "Shut up, the door is about to open!"

4. "Make sure that your name tags are facing forward and can be read please ladies!"

5."LADIES!!! Spit out your gum RIGHT NOW"

6."If you have Kappa next... RUN!"

7. "Girls, please be quiet!"

8. "Ladies at least TRY to look happy to be here"

From other PNM's

9."My feet are killllling me!"

10. "Do you have blisters too???"

11. "Does anyone have a hairbrush I can borrow????"

12. "Do I look OK?"

13. "I really don't know why I keep getting asked back here."

14. "I just wanna take a nap, honestly."

15. "I haven't had a voice all week...... have you?"
