MRABA: The Membership Recruitment Acceptance Binding Agreement. This is a one-year binding agreement signed by a potential new member when ranking chapters after preference round.

Panhellenic sorority recruitment at Georgia College is a fantastic process and we are so glad you have decided to take advantage of this opportunity. Our chapters have been working for months preparing for your arrival. Panhellenic Council seeks to make this experience positive for everyone involved in this process. As an honored guest, you are expected to adhere to the following expectations and requirements:· Attend all events for which you are invited· Remain respectful towards recruitment counselors, other potential new members, sorority members, council members and university staff at all times· Refrain from negative discussion of any of the above individuals through the duration of the recruitment process (including social media)· Understand that the consumption of alcohol and illegal substances is prohibited during the recruitment process and bid day activities· Refrain from communicating with sorority members outside formal recruitment events· Arriving promptly to all meetings, events and activitiesBy registering for Panhellenic recruitment, I understand and agree to the terms listed above. I understand that if I violate this code of conduct, I will be released from the recruitment process.

Q: I am signing up for recruitment to meet new people. I don’t have to accept a bid, do I?A: Sorority recruitment is a great opportunity to meet new people, learn your way around campus and get settled into the collegescene. A potential new member is never obligated to join a sorority. For various reasons, if you would not like to continue with formal recruitment, you may choose to withdraw. If you withdraw prior to receiving a bid on Bid Day, you are eligible to participate in continuous open bidding better known as Informal Recruitment. If during recruitment week, you decide that you no longer want to participate in formal recruitment, you should discuss these feelings with your Pi Chi who will help you through the process. If you receive a bid from a chapter on Bid Day, and decide not to accept it, you will not be able to participate in continuous open bidding for one calendar year. You will be eligible to participate in formal recruitment the following year.

Q: I am an upperclassmen, do I even have a chance at getting a bid?A: At Georgia College, all of our potential new members (regardless of age or classification) that maximize their options are successful during the recruitment process. There are several women in each of the sororities that joined during their sophomore, junior or even senior year.

Q: If I join a sorority, will I have time to study?A: Time management skills are very important to your success as a college student, especially one that is eager to become engaged at Georgia College. All of our organizations maintain academic requirements and offer support and programs to help you succeed.

Q: I am going through recruitment with my best friend, what is the chance we will both get into the same sorority?A: The purpose of the recruitment process is to allow you and the chapters to decide on the best fit. We encourage all potential new members to approach this process with an open mind. You will each meet women in these sororities that you make a connection with. Trust your gut and remember that this process is about you and where you best feel comfortable.

Q: I heard there are more sororities at Georgia College other than the six Panhellenic organizations? Who are they are why aren’t they in recruitment? Can I join both?Georgia College Panhellenic Council is one of four Fraternity and Sorority Life councils on campus. Panhellenic recruitment only involves six sororities, because those are the member sororities for that council. There are sororities within two of the other councils, National Pan-Hellenic Council and United Greek Council. Our community strives to offer a place to any student that is interested in joining a fraternity or sorority. If you would like to learn more about these other organizations, please contact the Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life at ofsl@gcsu.edu or 478-445-2960.

The Circle of Sisterhood Foundation is a mechanism by which all sorority women can stand together across affiliation, age, color, and creed tomake a difference in the lives of millions of girls and women around the world. Collectively, we are one of the largest communities of college-education women in the world while not even seven percent of the world – men and women combined – has college degrees, and two thirds ofall illiterate adults are women. Standing together as one community, we will give girls and women an equal chance for rewarding lives andlivelihoods through schooling, the learning of a trade, or even a college degree.

Whether founded in the 1800s or in the 2000s, sororities place a high priority onvolunteering and community engagement. Together, sororities donate millions ofdomestic dollars every year to help eliminate life-shattering diseases, raise awarenessfor important health issues, as well as tackling local issues such as domestic-violenceagainst women, illiteracy among youth, environmental stewardship, and aid to thedisabled and aging.

And the world is changing. Boundaries are disintegrating and technology allows us tolive in a global neighborhood. Today’s sorority women understand and appreciateothers on a global scale, realizing that they have the wherewithal to make adifference for the less fortunate both domestically and globally. As college educatedwomen, we know the value of achieving an education, and we believe that every girlin the world deserves the opportunity to go to school.

During Sorority 101, we will be making school supplies bags to distribute to children inthe local community. Please consider participating by bringing a few of the followingitems with you to recruitment! We will collect all donated items during the 2pm Hallmeeting on August 5th.

Sorority 101 is a Georgia College Panhellenic program that all potential new members participate in before beginning the formal recruitment process. Thepurpose of Sorority 101 is to help students prepare for college life and to understand the role sorority life plays in that experience. Sorority 101 embodies thevalues of sisterhood, as this is an opportunity for our campus’ most respected sorority women to empower you with the lessons they have learned along the way.

Sorority 101 will kick off with recruitment orientation and a keynote titled A Chat with Chaney. Chaney will lead us through a discussion about what it means tobe a sorority woman on Georgia College’s campus, in your daily life, and in the future. We will be exploring the possibilities of finding joy in every process ofbeing in a sorority and how to make the most of your experience.

Following the keynote, PNMs will break into groups and travel through each of the following topics:

The Expectations of Membership

Starting college, joining a sorority, meeting new people, managing assignments…it can be a lot! We will spend some time talking about the expectations of sorority life and how to balance it all!

Mental Health First Aid Kit

School is important, but you cannot accomplish anything if you do not have a clear mind. Keeping your mind and body healthy will help you succeed in everything you do! We will chat about stress management and explore resources on campus to help you have a successful and healthy experience

at GC.

Circle of SisterhoodCircle of Sisterhood is Panhellenic Council’s philanthropy.

We will be participating in a service project that will provide school supplies to local children and boost their confidence about learning and education.

What Your Momma Didn’t Tell You

When coming into sorority life and college in general, there are a lot of questions that you may have and some of them may not be easy to ask your parents – and those question may not have the easiest answers. We are here to help! We are going to cover all the topics you may be wondering

about and that college entails but just aren’t exactly sure where to get your information. Prepare yourself for some honest time and get straightforward answers as young adults entering your college career.

Just like many things that make each sorority unique, the cost of membership is different for every group. Eachorganization sets their own budget that is voted on by the chapter members. Some chapters’ budgets include all of theyear’s activities, while others do not include all activities. Instead, members pay only for the events and activities theyattend. To give potential new members an idea of the cost of membership, we have provided a range of the costs ofcommon fees charged by sororities at Georgia College for the first year of membership.

$1,200-$1,600The most expensive time in Fraternity and Sorority Life is during the first semester of membership. The fees paid duringyour first year of membership include fees such as:

Inter/National Fees Sisterhood Events Parlor/Housing Corporation FeeDate/Social Events Philanthropy Events Technology FeeInitiation Fee* Badge Fee* T-ShirtsOne time fees required during the new member period have been denoted with an (*).

Like the best things in life, the more you put into your sorority experience, the more you will gain from it. Sorority life is agreat place to learn time management as you will have the opportunity to participate in leadership roles, serve oncommittee, volunteer, and of course, make new friends. During your time as a new member, you will attend weekly newmember education sessions. Some of the sorority chapters will also invite you to attend their weekly chapter meting. Oursororities are also going to support you academic endeavors by offering study sessions and major-mentor groups.

Day 1: Meet and GreetPotential new members (PNMs) typically wearsundresses and nice rompers on meet and greetday.You can wear whatever shoes are comfortableto you, you will be visiting each house andwalking tons! Comfortable shoes are key!

Day 3: Sisterhood & LeadershipDuring this round of recruitment you will be provided with another t-shirt. The t-shirt will be a white V-neck with the Panhellenic crest. Pair the t-shirt with some colored shorts or skirts, but no denim please.

Day 4: PreferenceThis is the day that you wear your favorite dress or skirt. Chapter women typically dress in “pin attire,” which refers to attire that would be worn to an interview. You want to look and feel your best on this day because it is a special day during the recruitment period.

Bid DayThis day you will be given another t-shirt to pair which shorts or skirts of your choice. PNMs usually wear athletic shorts and tennis shoes on this day as they run to their new home. If you choose to wear a skirt, please wear shorts or spanks underneath for the run out.
