In order to become a member of a Tribe or Club at Mississippi College an individual must go through the Recruitment process and then complete the New Member Process.
During the Recruitment Process a “PNM” will get the chance to get to know the various Tribes and Clubs through events such as Recruitment Parties and other events. At the end of the first week, the student will fill out an Interest Card, ranking the organizations. (1-5 for the male students wishing to be a part of a Club and 1-5 for the female students wishing to be a part of a Tribe.) The student will submit their Interest Card online by September 14th at 11:00 am. After the Interest Cards are submitted, Clubs and Tribes see the list of students participating in Recruitment and their rankings of the organizations. Clubs and Tribes will then send out invitations for their parties in the second week of Recruitment to the PNMs. Monday and Tuesday night of the second week will consist of parties put on by each organization.
At the end of the Recruitment week, each PNM will get the opportunity to “pref” on a Pref Card sent out electronically on September 19th at 11:15 pm. These Pref Cards will be due by 7 am the following morning. (A PNM can have no more than two (2) unexcused absences from Recruitment Events. If a PNM has more than two, then they will not be allowed to pref.) On Friday morning, September 20th, the Council Presidents and Director of Student Engagement will begin the Mutual Selection Process.
