by: PNM

And how much emphasis should I put on them being true to how the chapter is?

Hey! Both AGD and DPHIE have theirs up right now. I would normally say put zero emphasis on a chapter’s recruitment video, but I give major props to DPHIE because their video looks and feels like they’re staying true to themselves. They have dealt with a lot of flack for not having a sorority house (something they address right off the bat in their video) and still managed to showcase their values in a cute 90 second video.
AGD popped “sparkling champagne” in their video and animated a cute dog to wink at the camera. No offense to them at all, but it looked like every other video I’ve seen for the past three years of recruitment videos, so take videos like that with a grain of salt. During the recruitment process, you’re going to have to see for yourself who you really like. Good luck PNM!

With regard to Dphie, any chicks that wear AC/DC, Stones, Def Leppard, and G&R t-shirts gotta have something going for them.

DG also released theirs! The videos aren't great representations of much more than how the recruitment chair wanted to look that year. It's more of a fun heres the women thing. Philanthropy vids are usually better indicators for what a chapter is like.

The videos are not great representations. Apparently AGD is now sponsored by Kroger so

So wait, you mean you don't all get dressed up to go to the farmers market, ride 6 girls standing up in a jeep, dance around in groups of 20 while getting ready for game day and sit around the campfire at night making s'mores????

Now I don't know what to believe anymore. The internet has let me down once again.

I wouldn't put any stock into the majority of them. They are pretty much all the same so they won't tell you much about a chapter. I agree with comment #1 that I liked DPhiE's. It shows their strength and addresses all the naysayers who claim that having their house won't make them any better. I like that they put it right out there. Good for them! The rest, for the most part, are kind of boring to watch.

All out so far are true to house personality imo. Pi Phi’s seems like beautiful wealthy girls who love an Instagram aesthetic, DG’s seems mediocre and generic, AGD chose to break several panhel rules for an incohesive try hard video, and DPHIE seems edgy and diverse

Agd honestly seems the most genuine even if they did break rules

It varies yearly based on the Recruitment Chair's vision. I will say that I found the videos to be pretty accurate to the way I found the chapter when I went through. If you think about it, the chapters are trying to draw PNMs in with the videos, but they aren't going to make a quiet, modest video when the chapter is wild. The videos are a decent picture, but take it with a grain of salt. They are a fun way to get hype for recruitment, but you'll get a better idea of where you fit when going through the actual process.

for making a video that isn't blowing glitter and wind whipping through your hair in an abandoned building or a cornfield. Your video truly embodies YOU! Don't let those four walls define you. Keep up the good work!
