Revised inducti<strong>on</strong> process<br />
unites new and old ideas<br />
September 3rd through October 4th marked recepti<strong>on</strong> rounds<br />
<strong>on</strong>e through three. The first round went as in the past, with every<br />
club hosting a single, two-hour recepti<strong>on</strong>; prospective members<br />
were encouraged to attend as many as possible.<br />
The sec<strong>on</strong>d round was a new experience for all involved this<br />
year, as no recepti<strong>on</strong>s were held. Instead, upperclass students<br />
visited the freshmen in their dorms during the week in order to<br />
have more <strong>on</strong>e-<strong>on</strong>-<strong>on</strong>e time to get to know each other. Jennifer<br />
Strickland, a member of ZetaBho, felt the upperclass visitati<strong>on</strong><br />
was positive. "This year's selecti<strong>on</strong> process was better organized,<br />
and visitati<strong>on</strong> went much faster than most people expected," she<br />
said.<br />
Invitati<strong>on</strong>s were sent out <strong>on</strong> September 23 regarding round<br />
three after clubs and prospective members had voted <strong>on</strong>ce.<br />
During the following two weeks, clubs and freshmen met again<br />
for <strong>on</strong>e-and-a-half-hour recepti<strong>on</strong>s which were <strong>on</strong>ce again n<strong>on</strong>c<strong>on</strong>flicting<br />
with other clubs and to which freshmen received<br />
invitati<strong>on</strong>s. Following this round, inductees voted a sec<strong>on</strong>d time,<br />
ranking all clubs in order of preference.<br />
"I have seen a lot more desire from both members and freshmen<br />
to be involved. This year, the process seems less of a task and<br />
more fun. There has been a good attitude am<strong>on</strong>g the freshmen in<br />
general," Chad McNatt, sophomore member of Delta Chi Delta,<br />
said.<br />
