Recruitment Mini-Series 2: What should you *NOT* talk about during recruitment?
Rushing Progress: Conversations for the Modern Sorority Woman
In our second Recruitment Mini-Series episode, we dive into what topics should (and shouldn't) be avoided during recruitment. We focus on the "5 B's" of recruitment (boys, booze, bucks, bible, Barack), share our opinions on why each of these "b's" are considered recruitment "no-no's," and share whether or not we think these topics should actually be "off limits" during recruitment. Enjoy!

Recruitment Mini-Series 1: Is the Only Form of Truly Inclusive Recruitment Random Selection?
Rushing Progress: Conversations for the Modern Sorority Woman
Sorority recruitment is often a space of exclusivity. Although many changes have and will continue to be made to make recruitment a more inclusive process, can sorority recruitment as we know it ever truly be inclusive? Today we talk about the pros and cons of a hypothetical "random selection" recruitment system, where potential new members are all randomly placed in chapters. Although a 'random selection' recruitment would never happen, it certainly makes for an interesting discussion!

1. Can You Be a Feminist and a Member of a Sorority?
Rushing Progress: Conversations for the Modern Sorority Woman
Welcome to our first podcast, where we take on the question that is so often debated online - can you consider yourself a feminist AND a sorority woman? We share our thoughts on what it means to consider ourselves as a feminist and how to balance the anti-feminist aspects of sorority life with our own beliefs.

In this episode, join us for a discussion about legacies and references. What is a legacy? What does it mean to have a reference? Are either of these things ~actually~ important qualifiers during sorority recruitment? Even though fall recruitment is over on most campuses, we wanted to make this discussion accessible for those considering recruitment in the spring, those going through COB right now, and those who did join a chapter this semester and are curious about these terms. We hope you enjoy our recruitment mini-series #6!
