rec letter importance

by:    

If you were more focused on grades first semester and didn't really get out a lot to meet a lot of girls but got a lot of rec letters for a house does that helo out in any way? I see the post below talking about how houses already have who they want based on who they hung out with in the first semester and it makes me a little nervous

Girls always come through and impress even though they weren't on our radar before. That's why we have a recruitment week. Bring your best because we are looking for those girls.

this is not just to you, but lots of worried girls this year

your friends, hallmates, this website, make it seem like being greek is a must at SMU. there are so many other things to do and it’s not over for you if you end up without a house. you can still go to parties and formals and be involved in other things.

As someone who didn’t rush until sophomore year second semester is super lonely because non sorority girls can’t go to mixers. Smu would be a much better campus and quite frankly have a less crazy Greek system if all parties were open. Then people wouldn’t feel so competitive all the time.

But that’s just it... Greek Life is such a HUGE part of the campus and it is very difficult, especially as a freshman coming from out of state, to meet girls. And the idea of simply not getting a house because you don’t know a lot of active girls is not fair because there aren’t a ton of ways to meet them unless you already have a lot of connections. Recruitment happens for a reason and it should be completely open and fair to any girl. I think the idea of houses already having “lists” is dumb

A lot of things about Smu rush is messed up. Honestly as a senior they need to change rush to the Fall so there’s no dirty spring rushing as well as get rid of mixers and have all parties open.

^^^ I actually am in a well regarded house on campus but I’ve seen how so many girls at Smu get hurt by rush. Having 300 girls drop out is just wrong and it hurts me that other girls don’t get the sorority experience they want. Sorry I have a heart squid
