Informal is conducted differently by every sorority and every school. It typically involves less structured events with a variety of activities. Your school's Greek Life office is the best source of info for informal events on your campus. You could also contact each sorority about informal recruitment events, if they are being publicly advertised.

It is more relaxed because the events are set up differently than formal and the structure of formal does not apply in terms of Rho Chi's, rankings, etc. There is still an element of stress though, because it's still a recruitment situation. The sororities are still looking for quality women and certain things like GPA requirements and making a good impresion still apply. Also since it takes place AFTER formal recruitment, the sororities are limited in the # of girls they can take. This is also potentialy stressful, because there could be more girls rushing than a sorority is allowed to bid.
