5 Tips For Sorority Recruiters
Mary Caitlyn Wright

Ladies, we know why we love our sorority, so we need to show all of the fantastic qualities to the PNMs. We see the process that these girls are going through, and we have all been in their shoes before. They want to find their forever home just like we found ours. We need to keep in mind their feelings and everything that they are thinking about. We just need to be ourselves and show just how amazing we know our sorority is. Just be yourself and be engaged in the conversations you have with PNMs.

Remember why you love your sorority and why the PNMs will too. It is also easy during recruitment to get stressed out, tired, and as a result, get annoyed with the process as a whole.

Have fun! We know that recruitment can be an extremely tough process, but we need to remember that we are surrounded by your sisters while you are going through this experience. Remember the little things you can do to make it fun, and if you're having fun, so will the PNMs.

If you are being genuine, you will make real connections with girls and remember to have conversations that aren't only surface level. Forming real and genuine friendships is important, and not just ones that fade after recruitment is over.

Recruitment is and will continue to be very stressful, and it will be tough. Remember that this process is for a reason and you should enjoy it- smile, find things to laugh about with one another. You are getting to spend some amazing quality time with your sisters, so don't pass it up.

Focus on the conversation that you and the PNM are having. Just be genuine, and the conversations won't feel so forced. Engage in the conversation instead of just thinking about the next question that you are going to ask them.

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.
