sunnymichele asked: Can't really say either way if we accept legacies or not, but like you said there has to be an OBVIOUS reason we don't accept them. :)

sunnymichele asked: Your legacy, could write it for a friend's child, but that really doesn't hold any weight. Only your legacy does. Like if my daughter or sister (niece and grandchild included) went to UGA and was rushing there I would right a recommendation to their SigDelt chapter on her behalf. You write it for your legacy who is a potential new member.
Oh! So your organization doesn’t necessarily always accept legacies? For mine, there has to be an obvious, legit reason for us not to give a bid to a legacy.
sunnymichele asked: An alumni of your Sorority/Fraternity can send in recommendations to their legacy's chapter at their university. The sorority or fraternity will then take that into consideration during rush/recruitment.
So who are the recommendations for? Any of the potential new members?
zanehatfield asked: As a current Alpha Chi Omega sweetheart, it's run in two different ways. Through a competition or through direct ballot. I won through a mix of both, they had a Mr. Alpha Chi Omega pageant, which included toga, formal wear and questions, and a talent. Points are tallied along with votes of girls in the organization. Girls votes were weighed so heavily that if it was impossible to win the competition with under 40% of the chapters vote.
Thanks!
louisianaliving asked: How do recommendations work?
I’m not exactly sure what recommendations are. My organization doesn’t do them.
Anonymous asked: Sweethearts on my campus by seeing who is loyal and supportive of the chapter. They have genuine friendships with majority of the house at least. Its more of who supports more and if they are personally close with the chapter. Not necessarily who cooks or cleans and does things like that. More than one person can be sweethearted at a time. Also pageants have nothing to do with being a sweetheart. Thats more of bragging rights in our campus.
Super interesting ( : thanks!
Anonymous asked: what is your favorite memory being in a sorority thus far?
That’s not an easy question!
Honestly I don’t think my favorite sorority memory is an event or a specific sorority moment…my favorite memories from the past year have been because I joined a sorority. All the fun times I’ve had, parties I’ve gone to, random lazy movie nights I’ve had with my favorite people…are all because I joined. I wouldn’t know the people I know or do any of the things I do now if I hadn’t decided to give Greek Life a shot.
I think it’s safe to say my life would be nothing like it is now if I never went Greek. That’s a scary thought, but I’m glad I’m on the good side of it.
