Rejection. Just typing the work totally sucks. Yep, it sucks and it hurts. Unfortunately thought its built into the recruitment process. Rounds 1 and 2 hurt everyone and they hurt us to have to make those hard choices (up til 3 am doing the long hard review process). There is no way to not feel the sting of rejection as everyone going through feels the sting at some point during the week. The trick though (and its tough sometimes) is to have a bit of faith (yep, another tricky thing) and keep going. As written extensively here and elsewhere about Cal greeklife we have solid options for people in any number of houses. Look for a place where you are welcomed and comfortable. Academics are a big part of the reason we are here so look for people that understand and appreciate your goals and will support your hard work. Close friend groups are typically small (less than 5 people) so keep this in mind as you meet people in houses...you just have to find a close group of like minded people and then its a huge bonus if you find an entire house of like minded people. I won't share my boo hoo recruitment story here, but know that even if you get your 2nd, 3rd or 12th favorite house on bid night you will somehow manage to find your tribe in greeklife.
