recruitment week

by:    

Girls drop out of recruitment week every year because they have decided before it even starts what house they want. When they get dropped, they feel like they can't go on. They think maybe next year they can get either that house or another "top" house. BUT, if you're dropped as a freshman (freshmen get about 99% of the bids), why do you think a house will want you as a sophomore? They won't. Really. You have almost no chance your sophomore year.

My suggestion is to look everyday at the houses you have left. They are the ones that want you. Choose the ones you like best from those and forget the ones who rejected you.

The real truth is that in the greek community, no one looks down on any sorority. They do feel bad for independents as ones who couldn't or wouldn't fit into greek life. So choose the sorority that you like best from the ones who like you the best.

Please don't drop out. Give sisterhood a chance!

You are looking for life long friends not letters. Friendship is built on mural respect. If a house doesn't fit then be excited about the girls who do want to know you! You can't know a group based on a name or rumor so get to know those who want to be your friend.

Good advice! TCU has great students and likewise great sororities with talented greek women in each one. Give each group a chance. You are going to miss out on meeting some great girls if you drop out.
Think about what you can contribute to the group and stick with it.

It is all about making friends-anything else is putting your emphasis on the wrong thing

Lots of great information here. Our Greek community is exceptional and you would be making a huge mistake to not take part you believe you belong in a certain house. Honestly if they don't want you why would let them dictate your future. Going Greek is the best way to get involved and meet people you would never meet otherwise. Give sisterhood a chance with a house that wants you.

If someone drops out because a house they really can't know doesn't choose them they are crazy. You will miss out on one of the best experiences on campus.

If a girl is so foolish to drop because she thinks she has to belong to a house that didn't want her she kind of deserves to be left in the cold. Why would they want you your Sophomore year??

Be aware that each house has points that make them great. Don't let one group saying no thank you keep you from gaining sisters that do value you.

You aren't in Junior High anymore ladies. If a house you think you want doesn't feel the same then move on to one who does. Why do that to yourself and insult those that invite you back. Trust the process and have faith that the girls inside the houses know where you will click.

Sometime you don't know what is best for you because you know all the facts. Trust the system and appreciate the sisters that welcome you.

It would be a real shame to miss out on the friendships that are waiting for you because of a group that didn't offer it to you. If they didn't want to pledge you as a freshman your chances are not better as a Sophmore unless you make it your mission to meet a group in the house to back you up...why would anyone choose that over people you valued you too start???
