#GammaIS Hosting Recruitment!

Chi Chapter's Recruitment Chair, Kate McCoy (pictured right)

Recruitment week is officially over, and it could not have gone better! All of the stressing, running, and planning was completely worth it. When I was voted as the director of recruitment and ritual, I knew how hectic recruitment week would be, but I was excited to help with the process that made me want to be a member of Gamma Iota Sigma. I’d like to think that anyone can plan a successful week of events as long as one is passionate and organized, and have awesome committee members to assist you.

Gamma recruitment week began on Monday with a Meet and Greet. Right off the bat, I could see the prospective members’ excitement. Gamma Game Night was a hoot as the room roared with laughter, causing our neighbors to ask us to quiet down. Did we lower the volume? Not exactly. It’s difficult not to laugh when 30 Actuarial Science majors are attempting to have an arm wrestling competition. Our off-campus event was ice skating, and everyone had fun trying not to fall while in the midst of foam noodle fights.

Finally, we held interviews Saturday, and the EC was impressed with the quality of applicants. The prospective members showed a drive to be involved in Gamma Iota Sigma, and our chapter is interested to see these members contribute positively to our business fraternity.

I would like to give a shout-out to my amazing committee members, Shang Shin Gan and Matt Odum, for making this week run smoothly and for putting up with my craziness.

I can’t wait to start working with our pledges; they show great potential. Welcome, Epsilon Class!

Fraternally yours,

Kate McCoy
