Overheard On Yik Yak: Sorority Recruitment Edition

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, folks! Rush!

For multiple weeks, eager students attend recruitment events to determine which sorority they fit in best. Some people may meet their future best friends, while others can quickly realize that Greek life is just not the life for them. Either way, the commentary can be hilarious.

Yik Yak, the anonymous location-based social media app, has been swamped with recruitment-related messages over the past weeks as students navigate the world of Penn State Greek life.

Check out what’s been going on in the world of recruitment.

“How did I start out this process not caring at all or even knowing if I wanted to go through rush to now crying in my bed because I didn’t get the house I wanted.”

Tough day. So sorry to whoever this is.

“Today is either gonna be great or be the end of me #happypref”

I’m hoping it wasn’t the latter and turned out just fine #happypref.

“ADPI ADPI ADPI,” “Adpi I love you,” “I love you adpi”

I found a lot of Alpha Delta Pi love across Yik Yak. I love the love being spread. (There was a lot of Kappa Delta hate, but the love is better).

“I’m so ready for rush yik yak to be done”

Aren’t we all?

“Rush crush baby please come back to me I LOVE YOU” followed by “SHE CAME BACK AND SHE’S COMING HOME TODAYYYY”

So happy for all who may be reunited with their rush crushes soon.

“Given that sorority recruitment was done in single digit weather, every girl should get their top house tbh they went through sm pain and struggle”

Single-digit recruitment sounds like my worst nightmare. Round of applause to all the girls who made it through.

“Aoii pick me choose me”

It’s “Grey’s Anatomy” all over again.

“How to stop mourning a house that didn’t take you to pref because you were late to a party during sisterhood and didn’t get matched with a recruiter”

I’m not sure if I’m hoping this is a common experience for girls or not…Wishing you the best.

“Rushing a business frat is 10x harder than rushing a sorority just fyi”

Guys, guys, why are we fighting?
