HECK YEAH GREEK LIFE

There are pros and cons to typing your class notes vs writing them down in your note books. I’ve tried both approaches and I found that there are advantages and disadvantages to each.

Would anyone be interest in being a co-admin/mod for this blog? I’ve been a bit busy and haven’t been able to these past few months, but I’m going to be more active now that my schedule is freeing up more, but I’d love to have someone else come on and help me.

I’d even be open to having three admin to equally represent all four councils (MGC, IFC, CPC, & NPHC)

If anyone is interest, drop a line in my ask box.

❀ cute big/little REVEAL idea! ❀

For our Big/little reveal, we have the girls come into the room 10 at time. They have a picture frame in front of them, that is wrapped. The new member educator will tell them to keep their eyes close and open the frame. As the littles are opening the frame the bigs run behind them. Once they are done opening ~ they turn around and hug their big!!

collegeboundnebraska:

Student involvement in college is crucial to whether you get the most out of your time on campus. A way to get involved, and stay involved, is to become part of a fraternity or sorority on campus. Many people go through ‘rush,’ or recruitment, right away when they step foot on campus, while many others wait a semester or two to join. Greek houses can be an incredible gateway to staying involved on campus, but make sure that the lifestyle is conducive to your growth as a student and as a person!

Consider these articles when deciding if Greek life is for you!

Cost and service opportunities are just two of the factors to consider when thinking about joining a Greek house on campus!

Is Greek life right for you? You won’t know unless you educate yourself on Greek system at your school!

Joining a Greek house can provide leadership and career opportunities, plus lifelong friendships and more, but it’s also important to consider expenses. Learn more about the Greek system on your campus!

When the first round of girls came into my sorority’s room on my first night of recruitment, I immediately realized that I was not prepared.

The tramarama of the moment was increased as we were told seconds before the doors opened to pick up 2 girls since so many girls showed up to rush.

BID DAY IDEA: Picture Frame!

For those of you on a budget, a simple picture frame would be so cute as part of their bid day package. Here’s a few cute ones. Theres even a couple that work for orgs who don’t allow their girls letters until they’ve been initiated, noting their line name.

They can later use it to put a picture of themselves and their pledge class.

This is something I enjoy doing at retreats and we even did this at our national convention (we are a local organization) You will need: -one paper bag per member -markers, construction paper, craft stuff - small notecards -pens Each member decorates their bag…

We have something like this, but with a plain envelope with everyone’s names. We call it warm & fuzzies.

bahaah ‘warm & fuzzies’

Legally Blonde 2 just came to mind. It’s so cute, I love it! <3
