Why Not? Attend Greek Kickoff

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Quinnipiac chapter.

HC QU this week has Greek life written all over it. Two women express their opinions, both confident in their decisions to join or not to join a sorority. As a 2011 recruitment counselor, I feel it is my Panhellenic* duty to encourage you to attend Greek Kickoff tomorrow (Wednesday, February 2). Basically, you will experience an energetic display of spirit from each sorority and fraternity. Once you attend this event, you may decide whether or not Greek life is for you and from there, you’ll be able to join the 280 women already signed up, and register for formal recruitment. Three years ago, I was against sorority life because of the examples TV and the silver screen had given me. But in Fall 2008, I said why not? Even if I hadn’t joined my sisters that weekend, I would have had peace of mind knowing that I saw Greek life for myself. 

Take a quick walk to Burt Kahn Court at 9:30 tomorrow, ladies. Why Not?

*Panhellenic is an organization overseeing most of our sororities on campus.

Please note that Greek Kickoff has been canceled due to all of the ice. Get all of your info. Thursday night at Formal Recruitment 101 in Burt Kahn Court and register for recruitment here before midnight on Wednesday.
