What To Look For During Sorority Recruitment
Wikipedia

In just a couple of months, it will be that exciting time of the school year when we get to recruit new sorority members who will become initiates, best friends, and sisters. One of the choices in happiest that I made in college was the choice to join a sorority.


Recruitment can be very intimidating, especially if you're like I was. No idea what to expect, and not really sure what you're looking for. After the entire experience, I can say I would do it the same way, and would graciously choose AXiD again and again. It's my home and pride.


To any girl who is considering joining a chapter at their college, I say go for it. Even if it turns at that it's not for you, it never hurts to try to be a part of something big that can change your life and give you the opportunity to benefit others.

No matter what chapter you think you belong to, go through with an open mind. I had an idea of where I wanted to be, but everything changed that weekend. Now I can't picture myself anywhere else.

If I had to give anyone advice for this experience, I would tell them to just be themselves and enjoy the attention and time you have to meet new people. You don't get an experience like this every day.


What you need to look for is your home, the chapter that you feel you can easily click with and can see yourself growing in. After just two days you'll know who you can see calling your sisters. I hope you consider taking advantage of this opportunity and find your Greek home and family!

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
