POTENTIAL NEW MEMBER We’d like to congratulate those of you who are new Lumberjacks, and welcome back returning Lumberjacks! Your time spent at Stephen F. Austin will be the best time of your life, so take advantage of every opportunity that comes your way. Panhellenic Recruitment is a great way to either begin or further your involvement during college. The sorority experience has given us so many memories, friendships, and opportunities.

SFA Panhellenic is composed of five wonderful sororities, all of which excel in academics, philanthro­ py and service work, and serving as leaders on campus. The Panhellenic GPA is regularly higher than the SFA women's average, our sororities contribute tens of thousands in annual donations to their philanthropies, spend countless hours serving the Nacogdoches and East Texas communities, and are involved as Orientation Leaders, Jack Camp Counselors, Jack Walkers - and the list goes on!

Our advice to you is to take advantage of every moment you spend in a house during formal recruitment. Take time to get to know the women in each chapter and find out what makes them unique. Remember to have a positive attitude and an open mind when visiting the chapters. These women can become your friends, your mentors, and, more importantly, your sisters.

On behalf of the SFA Panhellenic Association, we are so excited to have you join us for Fall recruitment. We encourage you to review this booklet, as it has been designed to answer most of your questions about sorority recruitment and membership here at SFA. We hope you make the most of this phenomenal opportunity and we cannot wait to welcome you to our Panhellenic community.

PANHELLENIC DO? The Panhellenic Association at Stephen F. Austin State University is the coordinating and governing body of the five NPC-affiliated sororities on campus. The council is composed of six executive board members who are elected annually by each chapter’s Panhellenic delegate. The council acts as the central governing body of the Panhellenic community, and serves as the face of Panhellenic to the university and Nacogdoches communities. Along with Panhellenic-wide program planning and management, they are in charge of organizing recruitment, including compiling and publishing recruitment materials for incoming students and training recruitment counselors to ensure potential new members have a positive recruitment experience. Finally, the Panhellenic Executive Council represents all sororities at regional and national meetings, and represents all sorority women by serving on university committees. Serving on Panhellenic’s Executive Board is just one of the many leadership opportunities afforded to SFA’s Panhellenic women. All of the women on the executive board have served as an officer or committee member in some capacity with their own chapters.

We, as Undergraduate Members of women’s fraternities, stand for good scholarship, for guarding of good health, for maintenance of fine standards, and for serving, to the best of our ability, our college community. Cooperation for furthering fraternity life, in harmony with its best possibilities, is the ideal that shall guide our fraternity activities.

We, as Fraternity Women, stand for service through the development of character inspired by the close contact and deep friendship of individual fraternity and Panhellenic life. The opportunity for wide and wise human service, through mutual respect and helpfulness, is the tenet by which we strive to live.

Sisterhood doesn't have to be something that is blood related; it is something that pushes you to find qualities you never had, and most importantly, it is something that pushes you

RECOMMENDATION Recommendation letters are not a requirement to participate in recruitment at SFA. Recommendation letters serve as an introduction of a potential new member to a sorority. If you choose to submit them we ask that they be provided to the chapter(s) before August 1 st to ensure that they have been received prior to the start of primary recruitment.

Each sorority manages their recommendation/reference letters differently. For questions about recommendation or legacy introduction forms, we highly recommend that you review the chapter’s website or contact the national office of that particular sorority.

COMMITMENTS Financial requirements are an important consideration for anyone interested in joining the Greek community, so it is important for you to be as informed as possible regarding the costs associated with SFA’s Panhellenic chapters. If you accept an invitation to join a sorority, you will enter into a financial agreement and contract for housing and dues during your time as a collegiate member. On this and the next page you will find detailed financial information for each chapter.

Your chapter dues cover fees required by the National Panhellenic Conference, the sorority’s headquarters, SFA’s Panhellenic Association, chapter officers’ budgets, and chapter maintenance. As a new member, your first semester’s dues will be the most expensive, as it covers one-time fees associated with your sorority.

We strongly encourage you to ask the chapters’ financial officer specific questions about the potential costs of membership so that you can be best informed.

What if I only want to be in a certain sorority?

Only wanting to be a member of one specific sorority or only considering a few sororities can severely limit a potential new member’s options for membership and can lead to disappointment.

Panhellenic discourages choosing a sorority based on stereotypes or others’ opinions. We encourage you to keep an open mind & make a decision that is right for you!

What are the benefits of joining a sorority?

You will gain supportive friends, and opportunities to hold leadership positions, get involved with community service and philanthropic events. It will also connect you with a nation-wide network of fellow sisters!

Does Greek Life take up a lot of time?

Greek membership takes up as much

time as you are willing to invest. You will have the choice as to what to participate in outside of mandatory chapter events. Greek woman have perfected the art of time management between jobs, academics and sorority life.

If I decide not to participate in recruitment, is my registration fee refundable?

No. All registration fees are nonrefundable, no exceptions. This is clearly stated on the recruitment registration disclaimer, so before you register for recruitment, please take this into consideration.

If I am going through recruitment as a sophomore or going through again, am I at a disadvantage?

Many women choose to go through recruitment as a sophomore or junior for various reasons. As long as you Yes!
