“Fall Formal Recruitment is a process that women can participate in,” said Emily Green, president of College Panhellenic Council. “It takes place over a weekend where girls will meet and interact with each of the six College Panhellenic chapters that are on campus.”
Orientation is held Sept. 4 and 5 from 6-9 p.m. to address any questions that may arise regarding the induction process to sorority life.
Following orientation, actual recruitment is Sept. 6-8.
“September 9 is bid day, which is when the women receive their bids from the chapter and to get to celebrate with their new sorority sisters,” said Green.
Recruitment day will consist of counselors passing out name tags to those who have joined. The women will then be assigned groups that will spend time getting to know each chapter.
“Inside the rooms, women should expect to talk about themselves, what their interests are and what their personal values are. They can also expect the chapters to share what values they have and what their sisterhood looks like,” said Green.
When the day comes to an end, the women will be asked to rate the chapters from one to six.
Sororities can be found at events like Fall Fest and April Craze and are very passionate about volunteering and raising money for foundations. Move in Day is another prime time where sororities lend a helping hand.
“We are also a part of the effort in having Party in the Woods each year,” said Green.
A lot of sororities spend most of their time and effort at their philanthropy.
Sororities are on social media to keep their followers updated when it comes to what they’re participating in.
“Follow everyone so that you can see how awesome they are,” said Green. “It’s such an exciting event and it truly is a way to find your people in a home away from home.”
