RUN HOME TO ZETA TAU ALPHA
Meet your 2023 Recruitment Captain
Dear Potential New Member,
My name is Sierra Wiltz and I am honored and blessed to introduce myself as Zeta Tau Alpha’s Recruitment Captain for 2024. We are all so very excited to see all your beautiful faces and get to know you this upcoming fall!
When I went through recruitment, I remember the overwhelming emotions, stress, and unknowing feelings at times. But, I will never forget the feeling I had walking into Zeta. I was embraced with such a genuine love, and I knew they saw me for who I truly am. I will never forget the conversations and the lasting hugs from Zeta, and I knew I found my forever home. I can confidently say 3 years later, becoming an Aggie Zeta will always be one of my greatest gifts and best decisions of my life. There are no words to describe the joy Zeta Tau Alpha constantly brings to my life and the strong, compassionate women who I get to proudly call my best friends and sisters. The bond and love each girl has for one another is unwavering, and they have made my college years the best years of my life. I know I will forever have a friend group who is my rock, a shoulder to cry on, who has taken care of me, loved on me, laughed until we cried, held me accountable, and overall pushed me to be a better version of myself. My goals turned into our goals, and we will continue to challenge one another. I will always be blessed to share college and a lifetime with my friends who love unconditionally, who lead with such light and wisdom, and want to make a difference. Zeta Tau Alpha is and will forever be my second home, where I found friendships and memories I will treasure beyond my college years.
If these are the friendships and memories you are looking for during your college years, I strongly encourage you to go through the recruitment process. From everyone in Zeta Tau Alpha, we are so ready to meet you. We cannot wait to see all of you and welcome you to Zeta!!!
As always, if you have any questions at all, please do not hesitate to reach out to me personally (tamuztarecruitment@gmail.com) or Texas A&M Panhellenic (tamurecruitment@gmail.com). We're looking forward to seeing you in August!
Meet your 2023 VP of Membership
Dear Potential New Member,
Hey! My name is Savannah Bickhaus and I am Zeta Tau Alphas Vice President of Membership for 2024. During recruitment week, you will see a lot of Sierra and I, and I hope to be a friendly and familiar face to each of you throughout the week. I am unbelievably excited to meet you all, I can hardly wait!
My rush experience might be similar to some of your experiences. I did not know what to expect; I did not have anyone close to me who went through the recruitment process, so it was all very new to me. As the week prevailed, I was nervous yet extremely excited. With every house I went into, I was greeted with girls who I admired and wanted to be like one day. It eased the worries I had initially had. The process brought me so much joy and a passion for recruitment.
I found my home in Zeta and it has brought me so much growth and the most amazing group of girls I could ever ask for. Zeta has taught me how to become an effective leader, a genuine friend, and how to feel abundantly loved. All the girls in Zeta can attest that they have been impacted by each other similar ways. I am so grateful for Zeta and these women. I cannot wait for each of you to meet them!
Recruitment is an exciting yet chaotic time. My hope is that you all get to experience the overwhelming love and sense of peace that I did when I stepped into Zeta. I am so excited to see y’all in the Fall!
