Primary recruitment at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln allows incoming and current students to gain membership into a Greek organization. At UNL, primary recruitment is a mutual selection process where a potential new member has the opportunity to better understand the Greek community and each individual chapter. The University of Nebraska-Lincoln participates in values based recruitment that allows potential new members to find a chapter that has similar values as themselves. The week of primary recruitment ends with Bid Day, a day where women are offered bids and the opportunity to join a chapter and the Greek community as a whole.

Hi ladies!

I am so happy that you have decided to continue your education at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.  There is no doubt in my mind that you will have some of the best memories during your time here.  Deciding to go through the sorority recruitment process will help open so many doors for you and bring you in contact with so many amazing women that are here to support you in all that you do.  The Panhellenic community is a community like no other, everyone is so strong and empowering; we know you will fit wonderfully among us.  

Joining a sorority can give you so many different opportunities and experiences.  Not only will you find women who support you and push you to be the best version of yourself, but you will find numerous ways to get involved.  This could be through leadership positions, academic support, volunteer opportunities, or simply networking with other individuals.  At Phi Mu Zeta Gamma, I have found myself surrounded by amazing women who have supported me and helped me find passions I didn’t even know I had.  I have met people from all over the country with so many different backgrounds.  A sorority will allow you to meet people that you will continue to stay in contact with long after your four years at Nebraska, they will be with you throughout the rest of your life.  

While the recruitment process can be long and chaotic, I hope you are able to find a group of women who empower you, encourage you, and are there for you throughout college.  I have found my home away from home here at Phi Mu, and I wish you the best of luck during recruitment as you do the same.  If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me. Zeta Gamma could not be more excited to meet you Pledge Class of 2021!

Wishing you my best, 
Sydney Woodruff
