Thalian Society of Whittier College
Becoming a Thalian
How Can You Join?
During the fall semester we formally identify with prospective women through our open house and rush events. In addition, we do a number of informal bonding events each semester. These events include trips to the beach, getting boba, ice cream socials, bowling, movie night, etc. During the fall we invite our prospective members to attend our bonding events so that they can get to know us, as a group and as individuals.
​
Prospective women can get to know all the T's through several events. These events include Open House, Rush, Unrush, and various other events we plan in the fall semester. The prospective women will receive a bid preference card from the Dean of Students in their campus e-mail. They must fill this card out and turn it in to the Dean's office if they wish to be considered for a bid. The bid process takes place in December and prospective members will receive a letter in their campus mailbox informing them if they have been invited to join the Thalian Society.
