Smile USF Recruitment Fall 2010!

So as you can tell from the title I'm going through recruitment at the University of South Florida in a few weeks! I'm really excited and can't wait for school to start! I know recruitment doesn't start for several weeks but I figured I get this much put up.

I don't want to give too many details away but I'll give a little background. I'm a sophomore transfer so I'm hoping that won't hurt my chances. No one in my family has ever been involved in a Greek organization so this is totally new territory for me. I just happened to stumble across USF's Panhellenic website and I've decided to give it a try.

I just wanted to say thank you for all the great advice that is shared here I'm going in with a completely open mind because I really want to find a house where I feel at home. It also helps that I know absolutely nothing about the reputations on campus. The only girls I know who are already involved are girls I graduated with but they are completely spread out across the houses.

I haven't really decided whether to do this live or postpone it a couple days. There wouldn't be anything negative or revealing but do any of you have opinions on which would be better?

But anyway! There are eight sororities at USF:

Alpha Delta Pi (ΑΔΠ)
Alpha Omicron Pi (ΑΟΠ)
Chi Omega (ΧΩ)
Delta Delta Delta (ΔΔΔ)
Delta Gamma (ΔΓ)
Kappa Delta (ΚΔ)
Sigma Delta Tau (ΣΔΤ)
Zeta Tau Alpha (ZTA)

If any of you read Harry Potter you can probably tell from my username that I love HP so I have decided to use character names. (BTW yes that is a characters last name lol) Oh so nerdy

These are obviously in no particular order!

Harry
Ron
Hermione
Luna
Severus
Fred&George (hey they count as one okay!)
Sirius
Draco

Good luck Miss LoveGood I think as long as you dont have anything negative/rude to say about the chapters (even when they are coded) in your story I dont see why you wouldnt want to post it live, but remember its totally up to you!

Thank you!

I think I'll do it live then.

And I'm super jealous you're going to Wizarding World! I haven't gotten a chance to go yet! I hope it's lots of fun!

Hey! I actually wrote a USF rush story on here under a different screen name and although I did not do it live, it's totally up to you whether to do yours live or not. I rushed last year and although it was stressful, it is one memory I will never forget -- in a good way!

Couple of things to keep in mind during recruitment is to not listen to gossip or sorority reputations on campus. This did get to me during recruitment because several girls in my group talked about only wanting to go XYZ. Keep an open mind!!! You really will find your place you can call home even if you don't think so. And sorority reputations really do change rapidly. One chapter may not be so great at say... University of Florida but great at USF. So who cares what other people say? lol. I wish you the best of luck and a successful recruitment!
