The Update | August 15, 2023
Industry Update Provided by NPC
Week of August 7
Wondery published a podcast episode on the emerging sorority consultant industry. The host states that there are thousands of sorority members across the country and the numbers are increasing, making the sorority recruitment process more competitive.
News Nation Now interviewed Trish Addicks, consultant and founder of “It’s All Greek to Me.” When asked about the "Bama Rush" documentary, Addicks stated that she thinks the issues raised in the film are realities of all women attending college, not just those in a sorority.
Week of August 1
Fox News interviewed rush consultant Leighton Newberry of “Recruitment Ready” and former client and sorority member at Louisiana State University, Evelyn Gray.
