Greek Life Recruitment

DSU Panhellenic Council 

  Sorority Membership Recruitment Week for Delta Delta Delta, Kappa Delta, and Phi Mu is one week concentrating on potential members becoming acquainted with the sorority system.  The week begins with NPC recruitment orientation on August 13, 2011 and  with sororities offering bids for membership on August 17, 2011.  Students participating in the week's activities will be allowed to move into their assigned university housing the morning that recruitment activities begin. The first official Recruitment activity begins at 2:00 pm on August 13, 2011.

  Each activity planned helps potential members and sorority members acquaint themselves with one another.  During recruitment functions, potential members will visit with sorority members.  Presentations also provide information about each sorority's activities and expectations.  As the week progresses, the parties become more serious.  The skits and laughter fade into ceremonies and quiet songs.  Here the potential member gets a glimpse of the true importance of sorority life.

  Any regularly enrolled woman at Delta State University who is neither on social nor scholastic probation and is properly registered for membership recruitment is eligible for participation.  Each individual sorority has its own minimum scholastic requirements to consider in the selection process.

  Women interested in NPC Membership Recruitment week must register using the form available from the Panhellenic Advisor in the H.L. Nowell Student Union, Suite 200, or by calling 662-846-4138.  The registration fee must also be included with the form. (If postmarked after July 31st, the fee does increase).  The fee includes a pizza party, a t-shirt, and printing/mailing and processing costs.  A question and answer session will be conducted by sorority members during the summer orientation sessions attended by new students.
