RECRUITMENT101 What is Recruitment? Sorority recruitment is the process in which all sororities invite new women to join their organizations. Carleton University Sororities coordinates recruitment between our sororities so that women who are interested in joining a sorority can learn about our sororities and find their fit. You will learn about their history, sisterhood, and community involvement, and maximize your options to find the place you will call home. All women going through recruitment rank the sororities in order of their preference, and the sororities do the same for all the women; this creates a mutual selection process so you end up in a sorority YOU?VE chosen. Through mutual selection, Carleton Sororities ensures that each woman going through recruitment has the highest chance of receiving an invitation for membership. There are women who give up their letters for the duration of recruitment, called Rho Gammas, or Recruitment Guides. They help women make the best choice for them, without bias. These women are your soundboards, your confidants and are always here to help! When you sign up for recruitment, you will have a Rho Gamma assigned to you, to make sure you find your home. If you want to learn about who our Rho Gammas are, please go to page 15.
Values Based Recruit m ent As of 2015, the National Panhellenic Conference that oversees all College and University Panhellenic Associations announced that they would be switching from "no-frills recruitment" to "values based recruitment". These are the aims of values based recruitment: - Focus on conversations between chapter members and potential new members about organizational values and member organizations. - Establish guidelines for membership recruitment budgets and set a cap on membership recruitment expenses, including the value of all donated goods and services. - Keep decorations to a minimum and confined to the interior space used for recruitment rounds. - Determine recruitment event attire for chapter members that reduces individual financial burden and eliminates costuming. - Eliminate gifts, favors, letters and notes for potential new members. - Eliminate recruitment skits. The aim of values based recruitment is to focus on the meaningful conversations that happen throughout the recruitment process, instead of all the superficial decorations. These decorations aren't going to determine if you find your home within that organizations, you find it through talking to the women, and getting to know the chapter. Each organization has unique and different values, but that is what makes each organization so different yet so similar to the other Panhellenic organizations. Each sorority looks to further their legacy, and to do so, they must keep to their roots, their values, that their founders instilled in them. They will look to find those values in you, so be confident, and let your true self shine!
