What is a Panhellenic Counselor?
According to NPC Women, Panhellenic Counselors, otherwise known as Pi Chi’s, model the way for Potential New Members (PNM’s). They serve as a confidant and sounding board as PNMs search for organizations that meet their needs and match their values.
Audrey LeVota, 2018 Director of Panhellenic Counselors says the following,
Being a part of the Panhellenic Community has completely shifted my views of the FSL Community as a whole and how I view each chapter we have here on Missouri State’s campus. Being the Director of Panhellenic Counselors, it is my job to ensure that the women we recruit from the chapters on campus are able to step out of the chapter shoes and enter a long summer of disaffiliation in order to be the best mentors for women going through the Sorority recruitment process this coming up fall.
For a lot of women, this can be a stressful and exciting time, diving into a new part of their college career with hundreds of women they may not know. I know for me personally this was a stressful time and having a supportive and unbiased Pi Chi is what got me through the week. My goal is for every woman going through recruitment to feel that same love I felt from my Pi Chi. This is going to be an exciting year for everyone participating in recruitment because I have such confidence in the Panhellenic Counselors we have chosen. Spending time bonding, training, and learning more about our community makes these women well rounded and ready to roll. I can hardly contain myself with the excitement I feel and I am counting the days down till that first day of recruitment!
If you haven’t, don’t forget to sign up for 2018 Formal Recruitment! We look forward to meeting you!
