My Sorority Rush Experience at Mizzou
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
So it's a lot, um, be just taking you like, day to day what happened every single day, kind of my experience. So sorority recruitment started on Sunday, and that was also the day that everybody moved into the dorms. I wouldn't say that, like, started that day, but we had, like, check in that day. So that day after we were all moved into our dorm takes Erica buys and we're going just get her. They're all in sororities, but for this week, they are detached from the sororities. Obviously, they talked a lot more in that first day because no one has any idea what's about to happen. You have, like, breaks, like usually fall for that first, like the 1st 2 rounds, it was like a 15 to 20 minute break that you had to get like, water and, like, chill out in between houses. Our 1st 1 we didn't have a house, so we just got to chill. Then I remember the first house that we went to was Tri Delt. They are open house around, and basically, what that means is that you just go in and you just talked to a bunch of different girls. Um, I had some bringing conversations for the next two days. The days were, like just the same for the first Monday. Tuesday? Yeah, that's what the 1st 2 days were. I think that round is so Yeah, it's pretty sweet and short every single day. At the end of a Tuesday at the end of the open house round you Pref, I believe it was like 10 sororities, maybe was eight. So you do that and then you have no idea what the sorority thinks of you. We're supposed to be like, what's roadie? Sorority At that time, and they were just hand it to you. So then basically after guard slip of paper, you just have to run to your House because usually the first round started, like right after that. It is Wednesday and Thursday, and they just talk about their philanthropy and what they like to give money to her with the charity is or what they're passionate about in their house. After that and all those four days off the P and open house, we wore T shirts that the PCE had provided for us that we like, bought like when we registered and everything. It was actually like, I think one of my favorite days because we actually got to see the houses they give us House tour is really quick, and then we just kind of got to like, talk to the girls, and they really just explained why they love their sorority and why they chose like their sorority and they would show us like cute little videos. So there were two sororities that I really, really liked. There were two sororities that I did not like it all. I had, like, four stories at that point, so I was really excited going into next day because I loved both of the sororities I had visited that Kreft They're like, amazing. I had such great connections and those houses, so I was really excited. So we go our schedules again That day that day is preference around. Those events were 50 minutes long, so they were, I mean, considerably longer, So it was definitely a more emotional event in that day. It was just supposed to be a really big day where you just like, seriously got to know the sororities. You know, what happened that day is supposed to be on the hush hush. If I'm not, like, passionate about where I'm at and what House of Men didn't like, what's the point? You know? So I went thio two events that they had of these houses, and I was just, like, literally crying with the entire time, and not because, like, I was so excited to be there and just like, so emotional, I was just like, emotional. I didn't even get a house and I want to know what my family was Greek like. I was crying the entire day and texting my mom, my friends on being like this is, like, the worst day ever, Like, I don't know what I'm supposed to dio. So then my pie Kyle, I found her again after I had went to these two minutes and we just, like, sat down and talked And I just explained everything to her house feeling I was like, I think that in a job and she's like, You know what? Like if you're not gonna be happy in the sororities, that's probably the best. So I went ahead and I went and I dropped from sorority recruitment and it was the day before the day. The next day was the day I did not experience today. If you want more information about actually being a sorority, maybe watch a different video. Um, especially if it was like new houses, one of the houses of the brand new last year. So girls living in house would have to pick 15,000 year, which is just like that. There is also what happens, you know, behind the scenes in the houses when they're prepping that you don't know about. If you have obviously relatives that are in the sorority most the time, you're pretty much guaranteed.
