Ah, that time of year -- sorority recruitment -- where we find ourselves spending too much time in the guilty pleasure that is watching sorority recruitment videos. Usually a well-edited mix of time lapses set against pop techno, girls on speedboats, the latest trends in bikinis, and of course, convertibles cruising coastlines and/or desert backroads. Here are this semester’s best sorority recruitment videos.
Iona College - Phi Sigma Sigma
Cheers for integrating so many graphic design elements that you feel like you’re watching a Billie Eilish video directed by Takashi Murakami. And an even bigger cheers to the fact that these sisters made winter look good, via ice skating, photo collaging, and booties paired with parkas. Â
ÂIndiana University - Kappa Kappa Gamma
Bonfires! Why haven’t we seen more of these?
ÂSyracuse University - Gamma Phi Beta
If only because you’ve got something other than straight EDM and tropical house mixed in the background.
ÂSyracuse University - Kappa Kappa Gamma
Even if the Kappa Kappa Gamma sisters filmed their spring recruitment video in a day back in August, we’re not going to hate. The vintage filters, water fights, occasional donut eating and black crop tops are not too missed.
ÂSt. John’s University - Phi Sigma Sigma
What do you do when it’s freezing at St. John’s University? You go bowling. Â
ÂThe College of New Jersey - Delta Zeta
Because blondes do attend TCNJ.
ÂIndiana University - Delta Zeta
When a director and cinematographer are credited from the outset, you know it’s going to be good. We’re into the drone shots over baseball fields, smoke bombs attached to roller skates, and the constancy of slow mo shots.
