Greek Chapters (Post 5)

   Spring is in the air and that means sororities and fraternities are already looking ahead to next years fall recruitment as well as pledging. Greek chapters are already on the purge to find new people to better their chapter for the upcoming year. Sororities and fraternities both do things completely different.  

   Frats do most of their recruiting in the spring and have PNM's (potential new members) come to some of their parties to see if either the frat or PNM thinks the house would be a good fit for them. They do this in the Spring due to having to fill up their house for the fall. Most chapters require their pledges to live in the house their first year of college. They make this required to build brotherhood bonds quick as well as delegating pledge duties easier. It takes a lot to become a official member of a fraternity.

   Sororities are now starting to plan and train their new members for fall recruitment. Fall recruitment is a BIG deal. Chapters will practice and study their butts off so they can recruit the best group of women. There are songs to learn, how to talk to people, and also know every possible question about your chapter. Recruiting is one if not the biggest parts of chapters and takes a while to prepare for.
