Fraternity and Sorority Fair in Grand Ballroom – 5 to 7 pm

Recruitment is the mutual selection process by which the Potential New Member, or PNM, (you) and the fraternities or sororities determine the best fit for membership. It is a mutual process where you have the opportunity to decide which organization(s) would be a good fit for you and where each organization determines who they would like invite to be a member.

During recruitment you will meet many members from each organization and have the opportunity to gauge whether or not a particular organization is a good place for you. While all organizations strive to create better men and women, each chapter is different and has a different personality. The goal of recruitment is to determine if Fraternity/Sorority Life is for you and where you find the best fit.

• Enrollment as an full time WIU student (enrolled in at least 12 credit hours).
