WHEN GREEKS ASK THE QUESTIONS

I was asked by two different organizations if I was interested both my freshman and sophomore years. Greeks will ask if they are interested in knowing for whatever reason.

Still kinda wack, IMO. On my yard, we don't usually ask people if they're interested in their particular org. I know I may ask a male friend of mine if he's interested in xyz frat, but that's just me being nosey, lol. I wouldn't ask a girl if she's interested in AKA, b/c we want people who know what they want. We don't want to put thoughts in folks' heads.

I think the serious info is being supplied here so I'll leave that alone. :-) I just wanted to add this: It's amazing...but I'm really learning...some people really are extremely ignorant when it comes to Greek ettiquite. I have to make sure I keep that in mind cuz otherwise I'd FLIP out based on some of the stuff I've heard. Like...I went to my high school's graduation this year and ya know me...had to floss a lil' bit. ;-) So I had on my Zeta hat and chain. So one of the graduates saw this and said(I'm basically quoting) "Oh you're a Zeta. I'm going to join that. I'm going to be online next year." In my head I'm screaming "Baby girl NOOO!!!!...Please be smarter when you get on your campus!!" But I grabbed up her email and I'll send her a brief message simply to say:Loose limps sink ships...if she's smart...she'll learn. She ain't in school...I really don't expect her to know....but now when this freshman came up to me after we sponsored Chapel service and told me that she'd probably "pledge" Zeta b/c her mom is one my face went :???: I don't believe I'm ...."intense" if you will about these matters. I don't like to "interview" folks. :lol: I just think that there is a proper way to do EVERYTHING and if you're serious a/b joining anyone's organization you might wanna learn those ways....and quickly.

I hate that ish more than anything and honestly I think some of the babies just don't know any better :razz: but see they fail to realize everyone isn't going to be as nice about it as you may have been. I remember this chic coming up to my best friend (a Zeta) in the mall. I didn't have on any 'nalia so she wasn't knowing. But my friend did; the lil girl was all of 17 and was going on and on about how she was GOING to be a Zeta and how she wouldn't have any problems "getting in" because her sister was one. She also mentioned how she couldn't stand her oldest sister (a Soror) and that's why she wanted to be a Zeta. We just looked at each other and laughed Needless to say, my friend took ol' girl's info and "promised" to pass it on to the right people :razz:

Side note- recruiting and a Greek inquiring about your interest(s) are not one in the same

Ok. I've never seen this addressed in a thread... What if a greek asks an aspirant if he/she is interested in their org (and he/she is, but has never expressed interest)? Should the aspirant lie?
