Yes, it is that time of year again: pledging. With 13 social clubs, Lipscomb students have plenty of opportunities to get involved on campus. Students wanting to get involved in their favorite clubs must go through the rush and pledge process.
A Greek life rush fair kicked off the beginning of this semester where perspectives were provided with information about each individual club. Once those who are interested attend open rushes and official perspectives, the active members of the clubs vote on who to give closed rush invitations to. After closed rush, chosen students are given a bid and then partake in bid night on Feb. 16. From then on and for the next ten days, the pledging process begins.
“My favorite part about the pledging process was getting to know the girls I pledged with on a deeper level,” said Phi Sigma’s Pledge Mistress. “I wouldn’t trade that friendship for anything, and it really did change my experience at Lipscomb.”
So, ready or not, the pledging process is about to begin. And even though you may lack sleep and sanity during the wonderful week of pledging, it is guaranteed to be ten days you will never forget.
