The first round went as in the past, with every club hosting a single, two-hour reception; prospective members were encouraged to attend as many as possible. The second round was a new experience for all involved this year, as no receptions were held. Instead, upperclass students visited the freshmen in their dorms during the week in order to have more one-on-one time to get to know each other. Jennifer Strickland, a member of Zeta Rho, felt the upperclass visitation was positive. "This year's selection process was better organized, and visitation went much faster than most people expected," she said. Invitations were sent out on September 23 regarding round three after clubs and prospective members had voted once. During the following two weeks, clubs and freshmen met again for one-and-a-half-hour receptions which were once again nonconflicting with other clubs and to which freshmen received invitations. Following this round, inductees voted a second time, ranking all clubs in order of preference. "I have seen a lot more desire from both members and freshmen to be involved. This year, the process seems less ofa task and more fun. There has been a good attitude among the freshmen in general," Chad McNatt, sophomore member of Delta Chi Delta, said. Galaxy.
