Sisterhood Night

The parties at each of the sororities you may visit will last forty-five minutes. This allows a recruit to enjoy conversations and meet sorority members. There will be entertainment and sisterhood activities. Sigma Kappa members will be sharing the bond of friendship between sorority sisters and recruits.

This is the time that a recruit should start thinking about where she feels most comfortable, and which sorority could be her best home away from home.

Philanthropy Night

On this day a recruit may attend both sororities' parties; the events are casual and fun. The recruits will be wearing informal attire and working on projects for Sigma Kappa's philanthropies. Conversation will be focused on service and any questions the recruit may have.

Preference Night

This is the most significant day of recruitment. A recruit may attend each sororities' hour long preference party, at which she may be paired with one member who has been special to her during the week.

This round can be the most emotional step of the sorority recruitment process because it is during preference night that the recruit must decide which sorority she would like to join. The parties are usually serious and subdued. During preference night, the recruit should think back upon the previous nights and recall what she liked best about each sorority.

This will help her to form a complete impression of the sororities and help her to decide where she feels most comfortable. A recruit should base her decision on her own feelings, not on any outside influence.

Bid Day

On bid day, a recruit may receive a bid from a sorority. Bid Day activities begin in the morning. After she receives a bid, the new recruit will join her new sorority sisters outside of the building where Bid Day takes place. She should plan on spending the rest of that day and the remainder of the weekend with her New Member class.
