Open House is the first round of recruitment and has historically been in person. However, this year, we are shifting to a video round for Open House. This means each PNM will create their own personal video introducing themselves to the sororities. The 12 chapters will also make videos for the PNMs to watch, discussing their values and experiences. This method allows for shorter recruitment days and we hope it will help you bring your best self to each chapter party and round. 

It is important that you are authentic in this video and let who you are shine through! You want the chapters to get a good idea of your personality and your values. Include something you didn’t get to put in your written application. This could be a unique hobby, a personal story, or why you want to join the community. Your Open House video is a chance to stand out and make a memorable impression on the chapters. That being said, don’t stress too much about your video. This will not be the only impression you get to make on the chapters. 

Please answer the following required question in your video: 

• Why did you decide to join Greek life and what values are most important to you as you go through the process?

Pick one of the four questions below to also include in your video: 

• What’s something you’ve learned about yourself in the past year? 

• What are some things you are passionate about?/What hobbies are you passionate about?

• Tell us something about yourself that someone might be surprised to learn.

• What would your theme song be and why?
