We invite all of the girls to come and do different activities . . . We put on this week to get our name out there and to get to know the women of campus and meet people that might be interested in AOII,\u201d President Erica Young explained.<\/p>\n<p>These events help existing members get to know new recruits in a relaxing, fun, and low stakes environment. For example, games such as \u201cGet to Know You\u201d Jenga are used as an icebreaker to get new members to learn more about each other. Existing member Megan Griep noted this game as her favorite part of her new member recruitment week.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the best part about recruitment week is \u201cGetting to know all of the women on campus. We make great, new, lasting friendships and we sometimes meet new sisters,\u201d according Erica Young.<\/p>\n<p>Erica\u2019s statement rings true as many members consider AOII family and use each other as a support group in their times of need.<\/p>\n<p>Interested?
