HI! My name is Jennifer Carabetta. I grew up in Pennsylvania, and I was a Sorority Girl at Indiana University, and also a dancer on the Redstepper Dance Team. I was the Panhellenic Representative for our house, and my senior year I was selected to be a Rush Counselor (Gamma Chi). I loved my friends and experiences, and I continue to meet new sisters from various chapters all over the country, and love sharing that bond!
I have been a High School theatre and dance teacher for 20 years in the Denver area, and I have had all kinds of students in my classes - from those destined for Broadway, to the shy girl in the back who hopes I never call on her. I learned pretty quickly how to help each student gain confidence, and bring out the best in each one through rehearsal, connections, conversations, and preparation. I have students to this day that single out theatre class as a game-changer for their confidence.
Fast forward a couple decades, as a mom of a college-aged daughter, I had no idea how much it had all changed! There are many more steps, and layers of preparation for the experience. Sorority recruitment is truly that - an experience. Making new friends on your floor and in your rush group, dealing with the ups and downs, the late nights and early mornings, all while trying to be a student, away from those that love and know you best, for the very first time in your life can be extremely overwhelming.
Practice and prepartion are key to a more enjoyable rush experience. We will get all the paperwork DONE. We will practice conversation techiniques. We will try on the outfits. We will talk about what she is most nervous about. I will explain what all of her options are, right up to the final Pref Day decision. I will help each girl learn to trust her instincts during a conversation, choosing an outfit, giving a compliment, deciding which houses she felt most comfortable in - all of it.
I am absolutely not here to change anyone. I am here to help young women be who they want to be and think about how they want to grow as they begin this new chapter in life. I wholeheartedly believe the experience of recruitment, and being a part of a sorority is so positive, and I will help maximize your chances in the best way that I can.
xoxo, Jen Carabetta

“As a mom who was totally clueless to the rush process, Jen was an absolute lifesaver. Not only did she go above and beyond preparing my daughter for all the stages of rush, she was a lifeline for us during recruitment. Jen is an incredible human being and is amazing at what she does. Love her and you will too! Highly recommend!!”

"Jen was absolutely amazing. I was super prepared going into rush & felt so much less nervous especially with the resources she provided. It was comforting to talk to someone who understood rush and particularly rush in the South. For anyone who knows nothing about rush like I did, Jen is awesome and I highly recommend!"
