Finding Your Place: Navigating Sorority Recruitment with Positivity and Persistence
In this episode of the Mad Rush Podcast, host Trisha Addicks welcomes Kate Gillett to share her unique and timely story about navigating the sorority recruitment process at Ole Miss.
Kate discusses her initial disappointment at not getting into her preferred sorority and the journey she took to embrace her eventual sorority and become a leader within it. Kate offers valuable advice to others experiencing similar situations, emphasizing the importance of getting involved, keeping an open mind, and finding communities outside of the sorority. Tricia and Kate also discuss the parental role in supporting daughters through this process.
The episode also highlights the pre-order availability of Trisha's book, The Rush Bible, which aims to guide prospective sorority members through recruitment.
