I'm so excited and nervous. I just don't want to come completely unprepared.

Set 1: (2 days) you will visit all the houses on campus. The attire will be casual, as the sororities will be dressed casual. Wear comfortable walking shoes! During these two days you will visit all 11 houses on campus. Thankfully now the houses are all on 1st Ave and 2nd St (I think that is the name of the street in front of the parking structure).
Set 2: Philanthropy Day, you will only visit a maximum of 8 houses. The attire is still casual, but a bit more dressy. I would suggest a sundress. Still wear comfy shoes (like comfy sandles).
Set 3: Theme Day, you will only visit a maximum of 5 houses. Still casual yet dressy. LOL. I would again recommend a sundress. Again, comfy shoes are important (seeing a theme here with the comfy shoes
). You will get house tours this day as well.
Set 4: Preference Night. You will only visit a maximum of 3 houses. This is a more formal event. You will want to wear a cocktail dress or a semi-formal. You will also want to wear appropriate heels or flats this night as well. But bring a pair of like flip flops to change into to walk between house to house.
Bid Day: Another casual day. Wear shorts, jeans, skirts. Wear a tank top as your new sorority will give you a bid day t-shirt to change into to take bid day pictures.
As for what to expect, expect a lot of girls to go through recruitment.
I thought someone said that there were about 1000 girls going through last year. Anyone know?
Expect for it to be HOT, HOT, HOT!!!!! Bring sunscreen!!!! Wear lots of sunscreen!!!! Bring lots and lots of water. Keep yourself hydrated.
Most importantly....
Go into recruitment with an
open mind!!!!! I cannot stress that enough. Heck everyone on GC can't stress that enough
