Recruitment update:
We currently have 95 women signed up for formal recruitment through Wednesday. Approximately 70 women attended Thursday night’s orientation session. There was an additional orientation session Friday night. Most women signed up. We're ahead of this time last year (and previous years). We sent postcards to all of the people living in the residence halls this year with recruitment dates, and there are/will be ads in the Minnesota Daily all week. The men are beginning to RSVP for house tours, we are estimating between 50-70 men at this time. The recruitment book will be handed out this weekend at the Information Sessions and Recruitment Kickoff.
