Panhellenic Executive Board Dear Potential New Member: Welcome to Panhellenic sorority life at the University of Georgia! As the representatives for more than 6,000 UGA sorority women, we extend a warm welcome as you begin this week-long journey of finding your forever home.

Your years at UGA will include many exciting learning experiences but perhaps none as well-rounded and memorable as being a member of a Greek organization.

The Greek community at UGA has enhanced the lives of thousands of students since 1865 and can add many valuable dimensions to your college experience.

Recruitment will allow you the opportunity to meet many sorority women and learn about each organization, Panhellenic, and the Greek community.

In joining any sorority, you become a part of Panhellenic.

By considering Panhellenic as a whole, you can look at all sororities with an open mind. Please do not rule out any sorority before Recruitment starts or before learning firsthand what each sorority has to offer. After all, every 3

sorority shares common goals of sisterhood, and we are all a part of Panhellenic. Involvement in a sorority can be a positive contribution to your college experience through friendship, leadership, academics, philanthropy, networking opportunities and personal growth.

No matter which sorority you choose, the Panhellenic friendships you form will be lifelong. Beginning with your first day as a new member, you will be part of a group of women with whom you can share your college experience. A sorority is much more than just a house to live in - it is a group of women drawn together by mutual goals, trust, and respect.

Once again, we are thrilled that you have decided to participate in fall recruitment. As you navigate this experience, we want to remind you to be yourself, keep an open-mind, and enjoy the process! As always, Go Dawgs & Go Greek!

THE PANHELLENIC COUNCIL

THE PANHELLENIC CREED We, as undergraduate members of women’s fraternities, stand for good scholarship, for guarding of good health, for maintenance of fine standards, and for serving, to the best of our ability, our college community. Cooperation for furthering fraternity life, in harmony with its best possibilities, is the ideal that shall guide our fraternity activities.

We, as fraternity women, stand for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendship of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life. The opportunity for wide and wise human service, through mutual respect and 5 helpfulness, is the tenet by which we strive to live.

The Panhellenic Council is the governing body for all 20 National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) sororities on the University of Georgia campus. The council unites every sorority woman regardless of individual affiliation. Each sorority has a delegate and an assistant delegate on the council. Together, the council members strive to unite sorority women and strengthen their values through cooperation, common interests, and talents brought from each chapter. The council is led by eight executive board members and the advisor who oversees all programs and activities. They work together with the delegates to make the Greek community a positive and active influence on the UGA campus and in the Athens community.

The Panhellenic Council is responsible for promoting scholarship, philanthropy, personal growth, health, safety, and involvement in sorority life and the Greek community as a whole.

Through committee work, Panhellenic provides activities and honors such as Panhellenic social events, philanthropy projects, and scholarship awards.

Panhellenic also sponsors programs in areas such as risk management, personal safety, leadership, and new member education. The council sponsors numerous service projects and contributes financially to campus and community organizations.

Finally, the council organizes and oversees recruitment. Thus, you are able to experience what Panhellenic does firsthand.

THE GREEK COMMUNITY Panhellenic is only a small part of the Greek community at UGA. The Greek community also includes the groups of the Interfraternity Council, National Pan-Hellenic Council and the Multicultural Greek Council. All chapters are advised by the Greek Life Office.

The Interfraternity Council, known as IFC, is the governing body for 29 fraternities on campus. IFC is responsible for creating policies, promoting academic excellence and planning Fraternity Recruitment. The IFC executive board is comprised of members from various fraternities and holds weekly meetings.

The National Pan-Hellenic Council, known as NPHC, is another part of the UGA Greek community. NPHC brings unity among traditionally African-American sororities and fraternities on campus. NPHC is made up of 8 groups: 4 fraternities and 4 sororities. NPHC sororities do not participate in Fall Recruitment because their national policies do not permit women to join who have not begun classes or established a college grade point average.

The Office of Greek Life provides educational initiatives designed to challenge, support, and recognize individuals and groups associated with Greek organizations through leadership training, academic support, community service and diversified programming.

While the Greek Life Office staff provides advisement, support and assistance to our member groups as well as the four governing councils, the groups are recognized as autonomous groups, and the University sets forth the rights of these groups as private, voluntary social organizations. UGA and the Greek Life office are not involved in membership decisions.

As you can see, being a part of a sorority and Panhellenic brings you in contact with a diverse group of people. All four councils are part of Greek Life at UGA, and all Greeks rely on each other for support and assistance.

For more information regarding UGA’s Greek community, please contact the Greek Life Office at (706) 542-4612. Details regarding all aspects of Greek Life and individual council and chapter information can be found at the Greek Life website: greeklife.uga.edu

The Multicultural Greek Council, known as MGC, our newest and fastest growing council, consists of 11 organizations: 5 fraternities and 6 sororities.. MGC serves as an umbrella organization to unify its unique fraternities and sororities. Together they hope to raise awareness of their respective cultures.

Leadership

Academics Academic achievement is the first and foremost priority of all sororities. Every sorority places a strong emphasis on creating an atmosphere conducive to high academic performance as well as challenging each member to live up to her highest academic potential.

Each sorority implements various programs designed to assist members in their academic pursuits. Programs range from tutoring and study hours in the house to educational programs, awards, and incentives.

Additionally, most organizations provide financial scholarships for members, often supported by their national organizations and local alumnae groups.

The Panhellenic Council sponsors programs designed to help chapters focus on methods of scholastic improvement and annually awards several scholarships to recognize academic accomplishments.

Sorority women consistently achieve a higher grade point average than non-Greek undergraduate women. This statistic indicates the positive effect sororities have on women’s academic achievement.

K

The UGA Greek community is dedicated to building future leaders by providing a wealth of leadership opportunities. Membership in a Greek organization is one of the most effective ways to discover and refine your leadership potential. Within each chapter, members have the chance to assume many different leadership roles ranging from Recruitment Chair to Treasurer to Social Chair or even President. Within each organization, anywhere from 5 to 25 different leadership positions exist, all requiring different degrees of skill and commitment. Each national organization also sponsors leadership development programs, which may include officer training programs and regional conferences.

Opportunities to learn and practice leadership stretch beyond chapters. The Greek Life Office offers several leadership development programs such as Emerging Greek Leaders, Sophomore Leaders Circle, Order of Omega, and Junior Panhellenic. The Panhellenic Council also founded the UGA Student Food Pantry in 2011 and is dedicated to managing and providing sorority volunteers this valuable UGA campus resource which is available to all students.

Beyond the Greek community, sorority women are involved in nearly all student organizations at UGA and can be found in leadership positions in many organizations such as UGA Athletics, the Student Government Association, Arch Society, UGA Heros and Relay for Life, just to name a few.

Philanthropy

K

Philanthropy is a core value held by sorority women and each chapter has both a national philanthropy as well as local philanthropies in Athens.

Sororities host a variety of fundraisers throughout the year such as meals on the lawn and 5k races. The money raised goes directly to the sororities philanthropy.

In addition to their own chapter philanthropic events, members participate in a variety of University-wide and community-based organizations such as the Athens Homeless Shelter, the Foodbank of Northeast Georgia, and the Clarke County Mentor Program. Each year, the Greek Community hosts “Trunk or Treat” and an Easter Egg Hunt for the Boys and Girls Club of Athens.

Sorority women actively participate in UGA Miracle events, the official philanthropy of UGA Greek Life. Panhellenic had full sorority participation, and all 20 sororities were able to contribute to the overall total of $1,201,133.25 for UGA Miracle.

In addition to philanthropy, UGA Panhellenic women are committed to making the community of Athens a better place through acts of service.

In 2011, the Panhellenic Council established the UGA Student Food Pantry in an effort to combat food insecurity on campus. Now, with fully-stocked shelves and a refrigerator and freezer, the Pantry serves over 200 students and employees each week. Student volunteers keep the Pantry running by providing staffing and donations. The Panhellenic Council is proud to be able to serve the UGA community in this way.

Members of the Panhellenic Council also volunteer frequently at City of Refuge, where they package groceries and supplies for local Athens families, children, and individuals living in crisis. Here, they are able to gain a clear understanding of the ways they can impact those in their own community. UGA Panhellenic is always looking for new ways and places at which to serve, and in the past year, it has partnered with the Backpack Project of Athens. This partnership has allowed Panhellenic members to fundraise and pack backpacks for the homeless population in Athens. In the distribution of these backpacks, those in need are able to receive food, toiletries, and other necessities. The UGA Panhellenic Council is committed to serving others, and its members champion the organization’s commitment to helping those who need it most.

10

Activities All sororities encourage members to be involved in activities outside the sorority.

Many Greeks hold leadership positions within these organizations and can be found as Dawg Camp counselors, Orientation Leaders, and volunteering for Relay for Life. In addition to organized intramural sports such as flag football, tennis, and soccer, there are a number of club teams in which women can participate. UGA athletes and band members are also members of sororities along with soccer players, cheerleaders, and runners.

Greek students are involved in the more than 700 student organizations on campus as well as many organizations in the Athens community.They are active in business fraternities, honor societies and advocacy groups.

Greeks are an active force on campus and in the community. A sorority can open many doors to activities you may not otherwise experience and introduce you to people you might not otherwise meet.

10

Sisterhood Although each sorority is unique and has its own special characteristics, there is a common thread that unites us all – sisterhood, a special bond experienced among the members of a sorority.

Sisterhood entails a respect for others and under no circumstance will individual chapters, the Panhellenic council, the Greek community or UGA tolerate any sort of hazing activity. Hazing is any intentional, negligent or reckless action, activity or situation, which causes another pain, embarrassment or harassment, regardless of the willingness of the participant.

Sororities at UGA expect their members to strive for academic achievement, demonstrate responsible citizenship, show concern for the rights and needs of others and provide leadership by promoting self-respect.

Hazing has no place in sorority life and is completely contrary to the ideals of a women’s fraternal organization.

If you have questions or concerns regarding hazing, please contact the Greek Life Office (706) 542-4612 or the Hazing/After-Hours Hotline at (706) 207-0779.

Additionally, the University’s Non Discrimination and Anti-Harassment (“NDAH”) Policy prohibits any member of the UGA community from engaging in harassment, including sexual misconduct, and discrimination against others within the University community, and includes instructions for making a complaint. The full NDAH policy is available at http://eoo.uga.edu/policies/nondiscrimination-anti-harrassment-policy

11

Socials

K In addition to academic and leadership opportunities, sororities also provide social programs and activities for their members. Social activities include formals, themed socials, date nights, Homecoming, and Parents Weekends.

The primary goal of every chapter is to bring together a group of women and enhance their values and traditions while building relationships. Diversified social programs allow students the opportunity to develop meaningful friendships within chapters, the Greek community and the UGA campus as a whole.

At UGA, each chapter maintains a responsible social policy to promote enjoyable social activities in a safe environment. Alcohol is not permitted in any chapter house. The University also has a closed party policy that opposes the misuses of alcohol and maintains that all chapters, individual members and guests must abide by state and local laws and university regulations.

All chapters work to foster a better understanding of social responsibility and alcohol education for their members. Panhellenic is committed to helping its organizations maintain balanced social programs, which contribute to personal development and do not detract from the University’s educational mission. The social opportunities are varied and endless. There is always something to do when you are part of Greek Life at UGA.

K A VALUES-BASED RECRUITMENT K UGA Panhellenic advocates for a valuesbased recruitment experience, one that is a reflection of both UGA Panhellenic values and the personal values of each potential new member. On one hand, we believe this approach to sorority recruitment ensures an unbiased and fair experience for all potential new members, and on the other, it allows for our Panhellenic chapters to recruit members who identify with their founding values. Additionally, a valuesbased recruitment encourages intentional conversation among current and potential new members as well as clear indications of membership expectations and other standards so that potential new members are able to make informed decisions throughout the recruitment process.

Before recruitment begins, we encourage potential new members to identify their own personal values and then to reflect on the importance of joining an organization of women whose values are the same.

12

Each Gamma Chi has promised not to reveal her sorority affiliation in order to give unbiased advice. Although it is sometimes tempting to know which sorority your Gamma Chi is a member of, please do not ask her or make extreme efforts to find out. Also, if you know which sorority a Gamma Chi is a member of do not reveal her affiliation.

All of the Gamma Chis and Panhellenic Executive Board will reveal their sorority affiliations on Bid Day. 13

a a a a a a a

Recruitment is exciting and memorable but can also be hectic and emotional. From the start of Recruitment, you will be assigned a Gamma Chi (also known as a Recruitment Counselor) along with 17 to 20 other Potential New Members. Your Gamma Chi is prepared to help you in any way. Although she is a member of a sorority, she has disaffiliated from her personal sorority and is representing the Panhellenic Council during Recruitment Week.

GAMMA CHIS

You will be able to identify Gamma Chis by the blue vests that they each wear during Recruitment. You will have daily meetings with your Gamma Chi to review the day’s activities and to receive additional information.

Your Gamma Chi went through an extensive training program to quality her for this position. Most importantly, she is an impartial listener. She will be your friend who will share your joys, show concern for your anxieties. and is always willing to talk about what you are feeling and experiencing.

Your Gamma Chi can help you make your Recruitment experience even more exciting and enjoyable. Never hesitate to ask her anything. She is a vital link between you and the Greek community, so get to know her!

What to Expect

Round One

K

Round One – Panhellenic Preview: For Round One, you will provide the Panhellenic Council with a short introductory video to be shared with the sororities. In addition, you will get to view videos from all 20 sororities made available to you on the eLearning Commons (eLC) platform.

You will receive information on how to view the videos on July 15th. These videos are intended to introduce you to every chapter before you begin to make any decisions. While you are watching the videos from the chapters, the chapters will be watching your introduction video!

In terms of what to wear, casual dresses or tops are appropriate for filming your video. Your video will be filmed from shoulders up, so keep that in mind! The most important thing is to make sure you feel comfortable and confident.

Round One

WHAT to Wear

14

Round Two

K

What to Expect Round Two – Sisterhood and Philanthropy:

Round Two events will be held in person and are focused on each chapter’s philanthropy, campus involvement, and sisterhood. Events are 25 minutes in length, and if invited, you may attend up to 14 events. Each event will begin with the chapter members performing loud, enthusiastic chants and cheers. Don’t be intimidated by the noise; the chapter members are simply excited to meet you! After these cheers, you will spend the remainder of the party meeting different sisters and talking to sorority members about yourself. Some chapters may also choose to show a video showcasing their philanthropy and sisterhood. Don’t hesitate to ask the sorority women questions about themselves or about the chapter. This round is a good opportunity to ask women about other activities that the chapter is involved in, such as service events and campus organizations.

Round Two

WHAT to Wear

15

In terms of what to wear, Round Two is often considered slightly dressier than Round One. However, casual skirts and dresses are still appropriate for Round Two. Lightweight materials are a necessity because of the hot weather. Again, you will be walking the majority of the day; therefore, choose sandals and flats over heels.

What to Expect

Round Three

K

Round Three – House Tours: Round three is an exciting day and consists of tours of sorority houses and allows you to see what “living Panhellenic” really means. Each round is 30 minutes long, and if invited, you may attend up to 8 events. In addition to touring some of our beautiful, historic homes, sororities will also speak to their financial obligations.

You will be provided with a financial information sheet that details chapter dues. During this round, the sorority women will get to know you on a more personal basis. You should begin to recognize the character and spirit of each sorority.

In terms of clothing, Round 3 is certainly more relaxed. All PNMs will wear the same Panhellenic Recruitment t-shirt with a choice of bottoms. You may choose to wear a skirt or shorts, but athletic shorts are discouraged.

Lightweight materials are strongly encouraged, as are sandals and flats.

Round Three

WHAT to Wear

WHAT TO PUT IN YOUR PNM BAG The days are long and you will be tired, so make sure you aren’t putting too much in your PNM bag! Each house will have food and water outside for Potential New Members, so there isn’t much need to carry these items. However, you can still pack snacks in your bag if you want. You may want to carry a small umbrella, a hand held fan, breath mints, oil absorbing sheets, lipstick, and deodorant.

16

Preference Round

K

What to Expect Preference Round (Pref): The last day of Recruitment is Preference Round. The events are 50 minutes long and if invited, you may attend up to 2 events. This round is meant to help you make your final decision. A sorority would not have invited you to Prefs if they did not truly enjoy your company. At each event, think carefully about how you feel at each house and take time to look around, as the women at these events could become your sisters.

Preference Round WHAT to Wear

17

Each sorority will present a ceremony, which usually consisting of various speeches and songs. The members will give accounts about what it means to be a sister and reflect on what their sorority has to offer. When making your final decision, think back to the previous rounds of Recruitment and recall what you liked about each chapter.

It can sometimes be challenging to choose between two sororities, but remember that there is not necessarily one “right” choice, and a chapter that you may not have strongly considered earlier in the week may be the perfect place for you.

In terms of what to wear, Preference Round is dressier than previous rounds. Nice dresses or skirts that you wear to a wedding, church or other special event are appropriate. Since you may only attend up to 2 events, heels or wedges are more appropriate, but not required.

Because Pref Round events are the most formal, many women choose to wear black dresses; however, this is not a requirement. If you do choose to wear a black dress, it does not have to be solely black. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and are accurately expressing your true self!

What to Expect

Bid Day

K

Bid Day:

The conclusion of Recruitment is Bid Day. You may receive an invitation to join or you may be notified by Panhellenic that your bid has not been matched. If your bid has not been matched, you will be eligible for continuous open bidding. If you receive an invitation to join, your bid card will list the sorority that has selected you. Your Gamma Chi will give you details on where and when to meet with your Recruitment group.

At your sorority house, you will be met by your new sisters. Bid Day is a time for fun, entertainment, and new friends. Enjoy it!

In terms of what to wear, Bid Day is the only day that there is a required dress code. Every new member is required to wear a white t-shirt or tank top on Bid Day. This can be paired with any type of athletic shorts or skirt! As for shoes, we recommend you wear comfortable walking or tennis shoes.

Continuous Open Bidding

Signing the Membership Recruitment Acceptance Binding Agreement: The preferential bidding system is a method in which Potential

What to expect during COB:

New Members’ preferences are matched to sororities’

The purpose of Continuous Open Bidding (COB) is to enable the chapters that did not fill quota, or filled quota but did not reach chapter total, to invite additional new members to join immediately following Fall Recruitment. It is also an opportunity for those women who have mismatched, been released from Recruitment or withdrawn from Recruitment to join a sorority.

The intent of COB is to provide maximum opportunities for membership to the greatest number of women who did not join during the Fall Recruitment period.

of your choices and you decide not to accept it, you will not

Continuous Open Bidding begins after Bid Day and will also continue throughout the year when sororities have spaces available, so you could be contacted about COB opportunities several months after Recruitment has ended. Your Gamma Chi will explain COB in more detail during Recruitment.

you will head to Tate Grand Hall to sign the Membership Recruitment Acceptance Binding Agreement (MRABA). On your MRABA, you will be asked to list, in order of preference, the sorority(ies) you wish to join, and you will sign your MRABA with the understanding that you are willing to accept a bid from the group(s) listed. If a bid is extended to you from one be eligible to participate in Continuous Open Bidding and/ or Recruitment until the next formal recruitment period (Fall 2026).

Remember that the decision you indicate on your MRABA is binding for until the next formal recruitment period. If you attend more than one Preference Round event, you are encouraged to list more than one sorority on your MRABA because you maximize your opportunity to receive a bid if you list more than one option. Once you have signed and turned in your MRABA, it cannot be changed under any circumstances. You should also not reveal to anyone what choices you made because there is no guarantee to which group you will match. If there is ever any problem with your MRABA, the Greek Life Office will contact you about it.

PNM Code of Ethics Being a part of the University of Georgia’s sorority recruitment is not only a great opportunity but a great privilege. Each of the sororities on campus has worked hard for the past year in preparation for your visit to their home. As a guest, you are expected to act in accordance to the following rules, which apply to both the active sorority members as well as recruitment counselors. Failure to do so may result in your removal from the recruitment process.

Potential New Members CODE of ETHICS I will attend all events to which I receive an invitation.

I will behave respectfully towards myself, other potential new members, chapter members, recruitment counselors, and university staff at all times.

I will act respectfully and politely when attending all events.

Upper Classmen Quota What is an upperclassmen quota?

An upperclassmen quota is a seperate quota that is used to specifically place upperclassmen Potential New Members. It makes the recruitment process more friendly!

Why are we using an upperclassmen quota for Fall Recruitment?

It gives upperclassmen and transfer students a greater opportunity to pledge during the Formal Recruiment process.

How will you determine if I am an upperclassman?

We will determine if you are an upperclassman based on your high school graduation date. If you graduated in Spring 2025, then you will be considered a freshman, and if you graduated any time before that you will be considered an upperclassman. If you feel that you have special circumstances, please contact the Panhellenic Council.

“Will the process be any different for upperclassmen?”

No, the process will be no different for you!

I will not discuss my opinion of any sorority participating in recruitment with other potential new members.

I will not discuss or reveal a known affiliation of any recruitment counselor or Panhellenic Exec member with other potential new members.

I understand that if I am matched with a sorority and receive a bid, I am bound to that group and am therefore considered ineligible for an invitation for membership from any other sorority until the next Fall Recruitment .

K NEW MEMBER OBLIGATIONS K Once you make the decision to join a sorority, you will begin one of the most exciting times of your college career. You will enter a new circle of friends and expect to be treated with respect. Sororities at UGA do not condone or participate in any activities which can be classified as hazing.

Each sorority has an organized program designed for its new members. Once a week you will attend a meeting with the new member educator, who is a sister that has been elected to direct the new member program. At these meetings you will study the history, structure and standards of your sorority. This education period will give you an understanding of what awaits you as an initiated member.

Every sorority stresses academics and will have programs set up to assist you. Some sororities may require you to attend a study hall at the house. Activities are also held to build relations between the new members

21

and the sisters. Each new member has a big sister who is there to offer the benefit of her experience. Additionally, sisterhood events such as movie nights are planned to bring the new members and sisters closer together.

It is important to not only be involved in the sorority but in other activities. Greeks have a reputation for being active in and holding leadership positions in many organizations.

Because they realize the benefits of campus involvement, sororities may require members to be involved in one or more activities outside of the sorority.

The value of your experience will depend largely upon what you make of it. Remember that the sorority chooses you not only on the basis of your past achievements, but for the contributions you will make in the future. You will be expected to attend sorority functions and contribute your time. You will be expected to maintain the high standards your sorority has established. Sorority membership can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your college career.

Make the most of it!

K FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS K An important consideration in deciding to join a sorority should be if you are able to meet the financial requirements of membership.

Membership is most expensive the first semester you join due to many one-time fees. However, all sororities are willing to work with each member individually through payment plans to meet the financial obligations of membership.

Sororities often require members to live in the sorority house for at least one year, usually during the second year of membership. Living in the sorority house is an exceptional value, as the average cost of living in the house (including room/board, dues, & meals) can be less than living in UGA residence halls!

There are also many “extras” such as t-shirts from events, which are in no way mandatory.

T-shirts cost usually from $12 to $20. If you have questions regarding the cost of belonging to a sorority, please ask your Gamma Chi or sorority members about their costs.

AVERAGE EXPENSES (PER SEMESTER) Average New Member Dues (first semester membership only):

$1,900

Average In-House Dues:

$4,800

Average Out-of-House Dues:

$1,300

FAQs IF I PARTICIPATE IN RECRUITMENT, AM I OBLIGATED TO JOIN A SORORITY?

WHAT DO SORORITIES LOOK FOR IN NEW MEMBERS?

No, many women choose to go through Recruitment to meet people and make new friends. Recruitment is an opportunity for you to visit the sororities, get a glimpse of Greek life, and assess whether or not you would like to be a part of the Greek community.

It is difficult to pinpoint exactly what sorority women are looking for. There are as many answers to that question as there are sorority women. A strong academic background is very important to every sorority. Each sorority has a minimum grade requirement and no matter how wonderful the Potential New Member may be, the sorority might release her if she cannot meet the grade requirement.

Often, women have friends currently in sororities or are legacies to certain sororities. Some women feel that these Potential New Members have an advantage in that sorority. However, just as you are not obligated to join that sorority, that sorority is not obligated to extend you an invitation for membership. Furthermore, you should not worry if you are not a legacy or do not know anyone in a sorority. The entire point of going through Recruitment is to meet new people, and every sorority wants to give all Potential New Members an equal chance. Every sorority is looking for a variety of members.

Remember that membership selection is not an easy task, and it varies from sorority to sorority. These differences are based on national policies and chapter bylaws. Therefore, Panhellenic has no input in the membership selection process or the qualifications each sorority considers for members. Sororities strive to put together a well-rounded and balanced group of new members. There is no mold or “perfect” member. Every house wants to add diversity with each group of new members. It is important to be yourself and let your personality shine.

23

HELPFUL HINTS WHAT IF I HAVE A HARD TIME MAKING DECISIONS ABOUT SORORITIES?

WHAT ARE RECOMMENDATIONS AND DO I NEED THEM?

Difficult decisions are a very common dilemma. Potential New Members, however, should not look at this as a problem. Most women can be happy in any of the sororities on campus. Think carefully and look objectively at what each sorority has to offer you. A sorority should be a home away from home, a place where you feel totally comfortable and welcome. Your experience at each Recruitment event and personal goals and desires should guide your decision making.

Recommendations are an optional way for a woman to be introduced to a sorority before recruitment begins beyond what she has listed in her registration form. No sorority at UGA requires a recommendation to consider a potential new member for membership. Securing a recommendation for a sorority does not ensure that a sorority will offer you an invitation to the next round or a bid at the end of recruitment. Conversely, not securing a recommendation does not mean that you will not be offered an invitation to the next round or bid from a particular sorority. There is no advantage to having more than one recommendation for a sorority. If you wish to secure a recommendation, you should view the list of submission information on the Greek Life website under the resources tab. Some sororities allow for alumni of any College of that sorority to submit a recommendation, and some allow recommendations to come from anyone. The sororities will already have access to your registration information, so the best recommendations come from someone who knows you personally and can speak to your character. Once you identify this information, you should send your recommender the submission link or email.

24

K ABIDING BY THE SPIRIT OF RECRUITMENT Recruitment is intended to give each PNM an equal opporunity to become familiar with every sorority. To keep the process fair, guidelines have been established with the expectation they will be followed. However, violations may occur, sometimes involving PNMs unwittingly. If a sorority offers you presents, invites you to Recruitment events during the summer or implies that you will receive a bid, that sorority is improperly recruiting you. This is unfair to you because this special attention may lead you to believe you may have a better chance of becoming a member of that chapter.

However, Recruitment holds no guarantees for anyone.

Sororities should be confident that they can attract members when playing by the rules. If you are aware that a sorority is improperly recruiting you, it is your duty to report this violation. Please contact Panhellenic with any questions (706.542.4612)

25

Buses will also take you back to the Tate Center after your last event.

ATHLETES, BAND, AUXILARY MEMBERS and LATE ORIENTATION

During Recruitment, scheduling conflicts may occur for you. Panhellenic makes every effort to accommodate your schedule and will get you to as many events as possible. Sororities will be made aware that you are missing events due to scheduling conflicts and not skipping them. However, only University-sponsored events are considered excused. Try not to worry - we will work with you individually to help you get the most out of your Recruitment experience!

WHAT TO BRING

• Umbrella • Comfortable shoes • Band-aids • Safety pins • 50 blank, white index cards

Don’t forget to bring all of your belongings as there is no break between Recruitment and the first day of UGA classes!

• Any contact between PNMs and active sorority women throughout the summer must reflect positive Panhellenic spirit and must promote the overall sorority experience, rather than just one chapter.

• Greek women may not invite or host Potential New Members at sorority or fraternity functions where alcohol is present • Potential New Members may not contact, in any manner, a sorority member from the disaffiliation date of July 31st until bids are extended. Contact may not occur between a Potential New Member and active member through a 3rd party. This includes but is not limited to, family members, significant others, or alumnae Contact includes visiting, phoning, sending letters, notes, flowers, balloons, etc. Contact the Panhellenic Executive Board with extenuating circumstances.

Any type of statement, written or oral, that would lead a Potential New Member to believe that she was automatically assured a bid or invitation from a sorority is prohibited. Sorority women are not permitted to say anything regarding a Potential New Member’s return to their house at any time during the Recruitment process. A bid, written or oral, is defined as a sorority member saying that she or her particular chapter is interested in pledging a particular woman. A bid also infers or implies future connections with the sorority including future meetings during Fall Recruitment. Conversation during the Preferential Round should not in any way indicate that a Potential New Member will be a part of that particular group, will be guaranteed a place or will be returning for Bid Day. • No Potential New Member shall be asked to state intent or give a promise to any sorority woman, alumna or anyone acting as a representative of a sorority. No Potential New Member should likewise tell her intent or give a promise.

• Potential New Members must attend all meetings with their Gamma Chis. Failure to do so will result in dismissal from the Recruitment program.

• A Potential New Member must consult with her Gamma Chi before withdrawing from the Recruitment program. In the event the Potential New Member feels she must withdraw, she must complete an official withdrawal form with her Gamma Chi. • Any Potential New Member signing a Membership Recruitment Acceptance Binding Agreement and receiving a bid at the end of Fall Recruitment is bound by the agreement for one calendar year if she is at the same university or college.

• Potential New Members found in violation of any of the Recruitment Rules will be subject to dismissal from the Recruitment program.

K All Recruitment Rules have been established to help sorority women and Potential New Members uphold the Recruitment system. The Fall Recruitment period has a twofold purpose: to give the Potential New Member every opportunity to become acquainted with as many sororities as possible so that she may make a wise, unbiased decision concerning membership and to ensure that sororities have equal opportunities in recruiting and membership selection under the Panhellenic System.

All sorority members and Potential New Members will be expected to conform to the highest standards of conduct.

Mentioning subjects such as sorority reputations, stereotypes or generalizations, Potential New Member reputations or promising bids for membership violates the spirit of the Panhellenic System. Fall Recruitment begins Friday, August 8th and concludes on Sunday, August 17th.

LETTER TO PNMS Dear PNMs,

My name is Katie Koch and I’m the Vice President of Recruitment Counselors for the 2025 Panhellenic Executive Board. I’m a rising senior from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and majoring in Marketing.

We are so excited that you have made the decision to go through recruitment this year. I know you are probably feeling a mix of emotions, whether that is excitement for this new chapter, nervousness about finding your place at UGA, or anxiety about being away from home, just know you have made the right decision. We hope that the Panhellenic community can not only be a part of your UGA experience but also become a home and community that stays with you long after graduation.

Four years ago, I was in your shoes—1,000 miles from home, unsure of what to expect, and overwhelmed by it all. But joining the Panhellenic community changed everything. It gave me lifelong friendships, leadership opportunities, a space to live out my values, and helped me grow into the best version of myself.

Recruitment will bring early mornings, long talks, tough decisions, and yes, the Georgia heat—but what will stay with you are the friendships made in dining halls, chapter lines, bus rides, and dorm hallways. I’ll never forget the moment I flipped over my bid card and ran home to my chapter, but the fulfillment of being a Panhellenic woman has only grown since.

At a school full of opportunity, Panhellenic made a big place feel small and full of genuine, driven friends. It’s the best decision I’ve ever made—and I believe every woman deserves to feel that same sense of connection and belonging.

My biggest piece of advice for recruitment week is to remember that this experience is about YOU and to be confident. Be confident in your ability to make connection and make the right decision for yourself.

This is YOUR college experience, YOUR new friendships, and YOUR recruitment. I encourage you to come in open minded, excited for what is to come, and ready to become the best version of yourself. Panhellenic has been the most transformative part of my college experience and we are so excited that you have decided to be a part of something so special!

27

Go Dawgs, Go Greek!

Dear PNMs,

My name is Elizabeth Ann Farmer, and I have the honor of serving as the Vice President of Recruitment on the Panhellenic Executive Board. I am a rising senior from Winder, Georgia and majoring in Nutritional Sciences on the Pre-Physician’s track.

It feels like just yesterday I was in the same exact shoes as you. I’ll never forget how nervous I felt sitting in Tate Grand Hall during PNM Orientation, listening to the women in red vests describe the transformative journey we were about to begin. I never imagined in a million years that I’d be one of the women in a red vest standing on that stage. However, that is the beauty of being a Panhellenic woman, it will push you to be the best version of yourself and allow you accomplish your wildest dreams.

Joining a Panhellenic sorority has been one of the most life-changing decisions of my life. It opened doors to opportunities that have shaped me into the women I am today. Panhellenic leadership positions have taught me lessons such as determination, communication, and compassion for others, which I will carry with me for the rest of my life. I learned the value of being a servant leader as the best leaders are not those who view their position as one of power or popularity, but those who view it as an act of service.

Panhellenic also brought me the incredible people who have made my college experience truly unforgettable. I’ve leaned on these friendships to help me through hard times but also celebrate life’s precious moments. It’s the people that make UGA feel like home, and hopefully recruitment is just the beginning of you finding your people.

One piece of advice I’d offer is this: the beginning of your college journey might not be easy, but it will absolutely be worth it. Freshman year is filled with ups and downs but remember—you’re never alone in what you’re feeling. It can be intimidating to find new friends, but the best thing you can do is step outside your comfort zone. Say yes to new experiences, try new things, and take chances—you never know what amazing opportunities are waiting for you. In the end, you’ll get out of your college experience exactly what you put into it. Ask new people to get coffee or go on a Milledge walk, because that new friend might just be your maid of honor. Cherish everyday being at UGA because there truly is no better place in the world.

Welcome home. Always, GO DAWGS & GO GREEK!!!!

“This is the life for me, my heart belongs to Alpha Xi.”

“When I decided to go through recruitment, I never imagined I would end up making one of the best decisions of my life. Joining Alpha Xi Delta was the right choice. I’ve always felt welcomed into this chapter with open arms. Alpha Xi has given me so many amazing relationships with girls I’m proud to call my sisters. I have found a support system, lifelong friends, and a second family. I am forever grateful to Alpha Xi Delta and can’t wait to continue making memories every day with my sisters.”

“To work earnestly, To speak kindly, To act sincerely”

“Going Chi O was the most rewarding decision I’ve ever made!! I am so incredibly thankful to have found such belonging in a chapter of girls who never make me question our friendship and are themselves 100% of the time. These people are truly the ones to help before you realize you need it and are my role models of selflessness and sincerity. During recruitment, I felt drawn to Chi O because of how authentic every girl and conversation felt - I can truly say that feeling has not stopped since. I’m blessed to be a part of this organization and could not recommend the Chi O experience any more than I have!”

“Tri-Delta, and you will see why all the best girls go Delta-D-D!”

“Coming to college I was looking for a group of girls that valued each other, encouraged each other to grow, and were kind to all. From the moment I walked into Tri Delta, I felt seen, appreciated, and valued and that feeling has only grown throughout my membership in this chapter. Growing up, I had always heard that in college you will meet your bridesmaids, and I am so thankful to say that Tri Delta has given me those girls. Girls that will make you laugh till your stomach aches and also hold you close when you need it. Girls that encourage and love you whether you are feeling one hundred percent or ten. Unique, hardworking, and confident women that have never ending individual passions for making an impact on our community. There is a radiant kindness that absorbs every single member. Tri Delta has given me not just a home away from home but a family that will go beyond the four years of college, and for that I will forever be grateful!” - Kate McMinn

All of the girls at DG were so fun and easy to talk to.

The more I get to know the girls, the more I realize how intentional they are. They will always push you to be the best version of yourself. I have formed so many amazing friendships through the sisterhood of Delta Gamma. I could not have made a better decision joining Delta Gamma, everyone deserves to find a group of girls as good as them.”

“Deep in my heart, I love my DPhiE!”

Growing up, my mom always talked about the amazing time she had being a DPhiE, and I knew I wanted the same thing. I went into the recruitment process with such a high expectation of what sisterhood could be and hoped to find a home that gave me that. Going through recruitment I found myself falling more in love with DPhiE each round and I knew this was my home too. I have never met a group of more kind or genuine women. My sisters inspire me every day and make me a better version of myself. This sisterhood is a gift, and the greatest part is getting to share it with my mom.”

“Live in the flame.”

“It’s hard to pinpoint the exact moments your best friends become your best friends. For me, it started the moment I opened my bid card in Stegman and continued with all the little moments after that. Every event with DZ, from chapter dinner to sisterhood events to formal, is an opportunity to make new friends. After 3 years in this chapter, I have a community of girls that I am forever grateful for. I never thought that 300 miles away from home, at a school where I knew no one, I would find people that I could never live without. DZ is truly an extraordinary group of girls. Every woman in our chapter is so unique and driven, they inspire me to want to be a better person every day. These girls lift me up and support me in a way I’ve never felt, and they always know how to make me laugh even on my worst days.

DZ has been the best part of my college experience, and even though my time here is almost over, I’m blessed to have made memories with my sisters that I will cherish for the rest of my life.”

“Never had fun, ‘til you’ve been one!”

“If I had to choose one word to perfectly encapsulate Theta, I would undoubtedly say genuine. Coming to a school so far from home, I was excited yet nervous to step out of my comfort zone and enter a completely unfamiliar environment. While recruitment is a lot of fun, it can also be a bit overwhelming, but every time I entered Theta, I felt like I could take a deep breath and fully be myself. From the moment I stepped through the front door, I was struck by the intentionality that was so evident in every conversation and has since led to the creation of irreplaceable friendships. Since the minute I opened my card on Bid Day, Theta has proven to me time and time again that I could not have made a better choice! Theta has given me a community of loving, intelligent, hard-working, and genuine women from all over the country and has truly become my home away from home!”

“We are the Kappa Deltas, we are the ones for you... don’t you want to be a KD too?”

“Being a part of Kappa Delta has truly been the biggest blessing to my college experience & life overall.

There is a true feeling of sisterhood in this chapter, and I am so thankful to have a community of girls who are truly for each other—the ones who cheer so loud, no matter how big or small the accomplishment. Being from Athens, I was nervous about college and the feeling of being too close to home. That was until I got to KD and I got to meet the best girls, who happened to be from all over. The girls in this chapter represent the true definition of friendship.

There is something so special about Kappa Delta here at UGA, and I am so excited for the 2025 pledge class to get to experience some of that magic during formal recruitment! Wishing you all the best!”

“Being a member of Sigma Kappa has truly been the biggest blessing of my college experience.

Coming in from out of state and knowing basically no one, I was really nervous about finding the place in college that I would call home. From the moment that I walked into Sigma Kappa, I felt an overwhelming sense of comfort that made me realize that I had found my place at UGA. I have been provided with an atmosphere full of so many different types of girls from so many different places, and I truly could not be more grateful. I finally felt like I had found a place where I could be the most authentic version of myself and as though I had found people that would embrace that version of me. Now being a rising senior, I know that I have found my best friends, my bridesmaids, and the people that I will forever call my sisters. There truly is no place like Sigma Kappa, and I am so proud to call this sorority my home.” - Taylor Stokes
