What To Look For During Sorority Recruitment
Wikipedia

In just a couple of months, it will be that exciting time of the school year when we get to recruit new sorority members who will become initiates, best friends, and sisters. One of the choices in happiest that I made in college was the choice to join a sorority.


Recruitment can be very intimidating, especially if you're like I was. No idea what to expect, and not really sure what you're looking for. After the entire experience, I can say I would do it the same way, and would graciously choose AXiD again and again. It's my home and pride.


To any girl who is considering joining a chapter at their college, I say go for it. Even if it turns at that it's not for you, it never hurts to try to be a part of something big that can change your life and give you the opportunity to benefit others.

No matter what chapter you think you belong to, go through with an open mind. I had an idea of where I wanted to be, but everything changed that weekend. Now I can't picture myself anywhere else.

If I had to give anyone advice for this experience, I would tell them to just be themselves and enjoy the attention and time you have to meet new people. You don't get an experience like this every day.


What you need to look for is your home, the chapter that you feel you can easily click with and can see yourself growing in. After just two days you'll know who you can see calling your sisters. I hope you consider taking advantage of this opportunity and find your Greek home and family!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
