25 Thoughts Every Girl Has When Going Through Recruitment At A Small School
Drury University Tri Deltas

When it comes to that fabulous time of the year we like to call recruitment, sororities nationwide begin to prepare for their wonderful week of rush. Regardless of the size of the university, all sororities are putting their creative minds and crafting skills to work. They need to have the best recruitment possible, and ultimately get the best girls into their chapters. While on the other side, the new recruits, or as we like to call them "PNM’s," are trying to prepare themselves to make their best impressions.

Throughout the recruitment process there are many ups and downs. There are times of confusion, laughter, and tears. Even though the university/recruitment may be smaller than most, it doesn’t mean the process of recruitment gets any easier or any less exciting. Here are 25 thoughts girls have when going through recruitment at a small school:

1. AHHHH It’s finally here!!!!! I can’t wait to be in a sorority!!

2. Wait..there are only four chapters?

3. What am I going to do if I don’t get a bid?

4. My Rho Chi said to just stay confident; BE YOURSELF!

5. What does PNM mean and why do they keep calling me that?

6. Why are they singing to me?

7. Why is everyone in this chapter so gorgeous?

8. I think I might have experienced a slight heart attack.

9. SO. MUCH. SINGING. I feel like I’m in a Greek-themed Disney movie.

10. This feels like a round of speed dating, but with a group of girls that are much prettier than me.

11. When is this round going to be over..I’m starving.

12. My face is literally in pain from smiling so much.

13. Why do they keep calling these things parties? There’s no partying going on in here.

14. If I get asked that question one more time, I’m going to lose it.

15. I think that might have been the worst conversation of my life..

16. I can’t wait till this week is over so I can go back to wearing my baggy t-shirts and shorts.

17. This suite is so cute..I think I could love it here!

18. I wonder how many times they had to practice that song...

19. That song is kind of catchy though. “Ba doom ba doom…”

20. Wow, this just got deep.

21. Literally I want these girls to be my sisters so bad..what if they don't want me? What am I going to do? I'm so stressed!

22. This is the longest five hours of my life!

23. What if I don’t get my first choice? ::starts to cry::

24. I hope they want me as much as I want them!

25. Yes! I found my home!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
