What's a Pi Chi?
In order to make your recruitment experience a more enjoyable one, you will have a Pi Chi, or recruitment counselor, to help you along. There are about 42 Pi Chis. Each Pi Chi is a sorority member who has separated herself from her sorority during Summer so that she will be prepared to objectively counsel you as you participate in recruitment.
​
Each Pi Chi will have a group of 15 to 20 potential members. The Pi Chi will serve as a guide to this small group and she will help make recruitment a more manageable experience for you. Even if you don’t pledge, the friends that you make through your Pi Chi and your Pi Chi group will make recruitment worthwhile.
​
Part of what makes your Pi Chi a worthy confidante is that she is disaffiliated from her sorority so that you can freely share your thoughts with her. It is a secret which sorority she is a member of. The most important thing she wants you to know is that she is a member of Panhellenic and that each of our Panhellenic groups is great. She will reveal her affiliation to you at the very end of the week, so don’t spoil the fun by trying to find out which sorority she belongs to before the time has arrived.
PI CHI TESTIMONIALS
Jennifer Appleby, 2025
"My favorite part of being a Pi Chi was watching the PNMs become more confident each day and go through the sorority recruitment process with an open mind. It was also really special getting to connect with sisters from different sororities and build relationships across the community. I would 100% be a Pi Chi again. It was such a rewarding experience, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who is considering it."
Gracelyn Larkin, 2025
"Being a Pi Chi has truly been one of the most meaningful experiences I’ve had in Greek life. Truthfully, it is what saved my membership and renewed my love for Greek life. Disaffiliating isn’t easy—I won’t lie—but the group of Pi Chis will become your sisters, and feels like a temporary “chapter” of its own. It’s such a special, positive experience and something I’ll always be grateful for. Some of my closest friends are girls I met through Pi Chi Land. My time as a Pi Chi helped me grow and easily is one of my favorite moments in Panhellenic. I loved it so much, I came back to Panhellenic for more."
