Recruitment week is nally here!
As you start your week, remember
to relax and have fun. This booklet
is designed to help you through
your potential new member (PNM)experience in remembering the
recruitment rules and your rights as
a PNM. The following pages allow
you to jot down details about each
sorority as well as your thoughts
and feelings as you leave each
house. The back page includes a
map to help guide you around GreekVillage. The Panhellenic Association
and its Recruitment team wish youthe best of luck during Recruitment! Have a great time!
RECRUITMENT POLICIES
To ensure a smoother, more enjoyable Recruitment week, the
Panhellenic Association and its sororities have set up some regulations
for the recruitment period. These rules are designed to help you make an
unbiased decision concerning sorority membership and to give all USF
sororities an equal opportunity during the membership selection process.
If you feel that one of these rules has been violated, please speak with
your Pi Chi or any member of the Panhellenic Executive Board about
the incident.
1. Sorority members may recruit only during recruitment events.Outside of recruitment events, sorority women may not engage in
contact with you aside from cordial greetings or friendly contact. You
may not visit a sorority womans room or allow her to visit yours during
the recruitment period August 1, 2008-September 1, 2008.
2. Invitations to recruitment events will be extended through the
Panhellenic Association and the Pi Chi groups only. Invitations or bids
from individual chapters are strictly prohibited.
3. Sorority women (collegian or alumnae) may not call you, send you
gifts or letters of any kind, or visit you during Recruitment week.
4. In addition to these general rules, all women associated with sororities
at USF subscribe to a Recruitment Code of Ethics.

According to the Code of Ethics, sorority members, alumnae, parents
clubs, chapter advisors, etc., will not take an unfair advantage of any
situation to pressure, promise membership to, or suggest that a potential
new member join a particular group prior to the issuing of a formal bid
by Panhellenic.Unfortunately, important events
can sometimes bring about rumors,
and recruitment is no exception. If
you hear any derogatory remarks
about any sorority, or any women
in the groups, remember to
evaluate the source and keep an
open mind. If this information is
heard from any sorority women,
please report it to your Pi Chi or
any Panhellenic Executive Board
member immediately. It is up to
you to determine your thoughts and
feelings about a particular sorority;
no one else has a right to inuenceyour decision. Any other questions
you might have should be directed
to the Pi Chis or the Panhellenic
Executive Board.

oughly and with severe consequences. The Panhellenic Association andits members follow and strictly uphold the following policies:
