going through recruitment

Advice:
1) If you are going through recruitment as a Freshman..do not look at this site as your main source of information regarding houses! It's merely catty anonymous social media. However, SOME good information on the process specific to Purdue can be found in the discussions, like here :)

2) Present your best SELF at each and every party. This means, don't try to be someone you are not. If never works. You will be judged on how you present yourself. If you are a chipped nail polish, 100 bracelet, pierced all over the place type of girl then I suppose you should just show that and be accepted for who you are. Some houses may not like that, but then they are not for you. In general a nice put together appearance is all that we expect. Put your best foot forward in this regard. If you show no effort in coming to our house, we will likely feel the same way about you.

3) ALSO, make effort in showing us your personality. A single active can typically talk to 30 girls a day during recruitment. We get tired of upholding conversations, hot and thirsty too. We can get crabby as the days goes on. Keep that in mind when you are rushing those last 2-3 houses each day. Be extra positive and make it easy on us to like you :)

4) Don't get caught up in your roommate's rush or whatever others are saying. This is your recruitment. Keep it to yourself. You will be the one living with the consequences of your decision.

5) Beware of the "no- it -all" about rush. I guarantee she is NOT
