My (retro) Recruitment Story!
I've been a member on GC for a few years and after reading a bajillion recruitment stories, I decided to create an alias and post mine too. Admittedly, mine doesn't really have that "roller coaster-esque" feeling that a lot of them do, but it's still a recruitment story so I'm posting it! :-)
Preface: Small school, small Greek Life, formally-structured recruitment, and I was not a freshman or sophomore like a strong majority of the PNMs.
Just realized I need code words.......
Couldn't decide what to use so I looked around me for some inspiration and saw a pile of clothes on the floor, so I'll go with that. So we've got:
-Jeans: I had gotten a pretty good idea of what this chapter was all about from doing pre-FR (formal recruitment) research on their national website & chapter website, as well as knowing a few of their members from other student orgs. In my opinion, this was THE chapter I wanted. I loved their philanthropy and wanted to dive right into it.
-Hoodie: Again, I knew members from this chapter from other orgs and hadn't met a single one I didn't like. Didn't know much else about them though.
-Fleece: This was the new chapter on campus. Knew 1 member.
-Shirt: I don't think I knew anyone in this chapter before FR but they were pretty good with PR so I had seen them at a lot of campus events and knew a little about their symbols/mascot.
-Sweater: I knew 1 member before FR and I just loved her. Knew a little about symbols & philanthropy but not much else.
