Recruitment Information

Dear Potential New Member:

Congratulations on your admission to Washburn University! Joining a sorority is a lifetime opportunity to developing lifelong friendships and memories. We hope you go Panhellenic!

Sincerely, 

The Women of Alpha Mu of Zeta Tau Alpha

As the Alpha Mu chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha we very much encourage you to participate in Formal Recruitment. At Washburn, this is a fun filled weekend that can introduce you to new friends and have a great impact on your life. We hope that you'll consider joining our family after going through formal recruitment in September.

Here is a preview of what you have to look forward to during the weekend!

Sisterhood Round- (Friday): Potential Members will be able to talk and get to know the members in each sorority.

Philanthropy Round - (Saturday): Potential Members will visit up to 3 chapters on this day. Potential Members will learn about the Philanthropy of each chapter, and what events they put on to raise money to support it. ZTA's National philanthropy is Breast Cancer Education and Awareness. On this day you will learn about the many events Zetas at Washburn participate in as well as Zetas all over the country put on to raise money for our National Philanthropy.  

Preference Round - (Sunday): Potential Members will visit up to 2 chapters on this day. Today, Potential Members will be able to get a more in depth view of the sisterhood that the current members share and what Zeta Tau Alpha means to each of them.

Bid Day - (Sunday): Potential Members will get a bid to one of the chapters they visited during the weekend, and afterward celebrate with the rest of their new Pledge Class. At this time, girls going through recruitment are no longer Potential Members; they are New Members to the chapter to which they were given a bid! Today is a very exciting and fun filled day that both new members and chapter members enjoy!
