Or people on your campus might remember this thread discussion when it comes time to rush. Being that there's only one other sorority on campus, I doubt it'd be hard to figure out who you are.

I just know that I would never stand for something like that in a sorority. It's just my opinion, if you don't agree then that's fine ... but the very last thing I'd want is you to dislike me or my sorority over a thread post ... a little juvenile I think lol
I think anything related to the shocker is disgusting. Still, it's in poor taste to post the organization's laundry. Just because it came from the horse's mouth doesn't necessarily mean it's true. You're not a member so you don't know it's fact...she could have just been shitting with you.

Calm down. Just stop talking about the other sorority and worry about yours.

Very Helpful

The ritual links were very helpful for me as I am planning an initiation for one very special woman. Thank you for posting.

To the OP, good luck to you in your journey with your organization. DO keep us updated.

My question is location?

I would guess that many fraternities and sororities have their rituals in the house or something like that, but for organizations that do not have houses, how do you decide where to have initiation ritual. As a new organization, you want it to be memorable, but also simple enough for others after us to carry on.

as always thank you GC! interesting thread.

For location there are a couple of things you can do. For ease I know alot of orgs find something on campus to use. For something big though, maybe a local church or something.

[quote=Silmanarmo;1659140]I was looking for a sorority to join in the new town I would be studying at. ....quote]


I checked urbandictionary and no longer need further elaboration.



Some advice:

1. you shouldn't believe everything you hear.
2. Never ever put down another organization or spread rumors.

Thanks for your reply. I was initially thinking of having it on the top of one of our campus parking garages at night because I thought it would be nice to have initiation at a location where you can view the entire campus and surrounding community because that is who we say we serve.

Never considered a church, but that is a good idea too.

Thanks!

Obviously I don't know anything about how you guys treat ritual. But having it completly out in the open like that is imo a BAD idea.

I can understand your concern, as it was mine too when I thought of the idea. I was thinking, though, that if it is kinda later at night, at the very top floor of one of the parking garages that people hardly use, no one who really noticed/see/hear us. But still could be a bad idea. I know.

I will research this church idea. Thanks again!

We haven't decided on a good place yet I guess we could use our school student center. It's inside AND there is lots of seating.
