informal sorority

no one knows 100% yet who will recruit, but it will most likely be sprite dates with those chapters where they have one open house and then invite the girls out to lunch/coffee, etc.

What does sorite date mean? And does anyone know the dates of informal yet?

Until PHA sets total, no chapter will know if they need to recruit. PHA should convey this the first week of class so the chapters can make the decision.

Sprite dates are casual one-on-one lunches or coffee dates Recruitment VPs will have with girls interested in informal recruitment. I would recommend going to every house and trying to have a sprite date with as many VPs as possible to get a feel for each house. After the sprite dates, PHA will call you offering you a bid at 1-3 chapters. You can ask for more time to decide and call them back if you choose. Then, you'll have Bid Day!!!
As for total and chapters recruiting, I believe that KD, Fuzzie, Chi-O, AOPi, AEPhi, and DG will most likely be recruiting. If they lower total, possible Theta and A-ChiO as well. But nothing will be for sure until after this first week of class.
