Do: go to the date party. We are only this age once and I have always been told that college is not solely meant for education. Of course it is a very important aspect but it is not the only thing. College is the time for us to really explore socially. So I highly encourage you to go to as many functions as possible.

Don't: feel as if you have to have a date to go. Speaking from personal experience, I have had some of the best times just going with the girls. Plus it is nice not having to watch out for someone sometimes. Also another plus is you don't have to buy an extra t-shirt. So even if you don't have a date still go because I promise you will have a great time with your friends.

Do: wear comfortable shoes. You can wear whatever heels or such for pictures but trust me you will want comfortable shoes. Also you want them to be shoes that you will be okay with getting a little dirty. Especially, when you know its going to be crowded and people will be stepping all over each other.

Don't: worry about taking a random. Taking a random to a date party is honestly so amazing. You get to meet a new friend and if it goes terrible then you never have to talk to them again and you didn't ruin a friendship over it. Also tons of people love being able to go to other organizations functions. It is like a whole new experience.

Do: have fun! Overall, do what you want and have a good time. It is all about being comfortable and being surrounded but your best friends. Date parties are such a fun time and are very freeing. They are a great way to let loose with your organization. Hope these helped!
