Say helloooo to:
our Recruitment Chairs!
To each potential new member,
Our names are Brelyn Schroeder and Emma Jane Stricklin and we have the privilege of serving as Phi Mu’s Recruitment Chairs this year. We are so ecstatic that you visited our website and came across our Recruitment page. We are already in depth planning with our committee to meet each of you who walk through our doors in the fall. We are over the moon for each of you to step into this special season of life; these next few years will be so cherished!
​
Coming from a town close to Auburn, I was nervous and full of anticipation in the hopes of creating my own path stepping into this new chapter of my life. If you would have told me as the Freshman PNM walking through the doors of Phi Mu that I would be serving as the Recruitment Chair in 3 years, I wouldn’t have believed you. However, this is a testimony as to how the girls in this chapter have encouraged me, trusted me, and guided me, to become the best version of myself and flourish in a position where I get to serve the chapter that I love so dearly.
​
We know Recruitment might bring you a whirlwind of emotions, We've been there ourselves, but know that our goal is to get to know YOU. Walking into the doors of Phi Mu our Freshman year we were able to completely and unapologetically be ourselves. Each day we made deeper connections to the people we met, and felt as if we had known them for years. Running home to Phi Mu on Bid Day made every feeling felt through Recruitment so worth it, as all we felt that day was pure joy. These relationships and friendships we have with every girl in our chapter is something that we would never trade for anything. We are grateful for each blessing and lesson Phi Mu has given and taught us. We can only pray that as you go through this tedious process you will find a strong-hearted group of young women who will be there for you through the many ups and down’s college will bring you. Our prayer for each and every one of you is that you will have a peaceful mind and an overwhelming heart as you walk out of Phi Mu, just like we did a couple years ago.
Our biggest goal for our chapter is that we all demonstrate why we love Phi Mu and the things that it has given us: friends that we will have for 50 more years, a sense of belonging that We'll cherish forever, and a place where we can show and receive love in all of its greatest forms. We are SO pumped to finally meet each of your smiling faces in August and we know our chapter is too!
liob,
Brelyn Schroeder

Hello! My name is Lainey Bayer, and this year I have the honor of serving as Phi Mu New Member Director, also known as Phi Mom. My job is to nurture you, love on you, and challenge you as Auburn and Phi Mu become your home away from home. I will be there with you on your best days and your worst, encouraging you and teaching you what it means to become a proud, confident Phi Mu woman.
I remember my freshman year like it was yesterday - the good, the bad, and the ugly. The constant that uplifted me, supported me, and stood by me was Phi Mu. I have met the most incredible women that I never knew I needed. I now have an amazing big and little sister, incredible roommates, and friends that push me to be a better woman every day. I pray that each of you experiences this joy as you meet your future bridesmaids and lifelong, one-of-a-kind friends in this chapter.
Extraordinary, smart, kind. strong, beautiful, courageous, and deserving women fill this chapter, and I cannot wait to welcome all of you into this sisterhood. You are here for a reason, and you will find your footing, I promise. Just know, as you come into college with uncertainty and uneasiness, you are already so loved here in Phi Mu. You will laugh here, you will cry here, and you will make memories that last a lifetime. I cannot wait to see you conquer Auburn and find a home in this chapter. I am so honored to be by your side through it all.
