I'm alum, but i'm already pumped for my chapter's recruitment next fall! Instead of the horrible 16hrs i live from them now, I'll only be 2 hrs away...which means I may actually get to attend an event or two and Initiation!

My chapter just had their last meeting for the year yesterday and it seems like the recruitment chair already has everything under control! She has so many good ideas!

Well, I can't wait to hear more details from y'all later on, specially since my school never does formal recruitment(long story).

LSU has changed the date for Fraternity Rush. It used to occur after school started, but they tentatively scheduled it for Aug. 20.
I THINK the girls will begin on the 17th.

My son went to spring testing and attended one party (though not designated a rush party) and has been invited to a different fraternity party at the end of spring break. While at testing they went out and met some girls (they are such cuties) who started telling them who does what. When they came home and were sitting around the table, they talked about hazing and their opinions on the matter...

I'm finally going through in the fall!!! I'm excited, not nervous yet. I don't know if I'll post about it or not, since I know that there are girls from my campus on GC, ;) but I'm looking forward to it!

I'm really excited to help my collegiate chapter with rush this year! I'm anxious to see what it's like on the alumnae side! It will be the most exciting this year, because our school just finished the Greek Park housing. All the sororities will get houses in the same spot, for the first time ever! From what I've gathered from advisors, rush will be conducted from the houses! The ladies are all very excited, and I can't wait to see how it turns out!

I hope to be there with you AJ! Wahoo Texas DGs :eek:

Is anyone else rushing this fall?

Crystal

Of course!

I have a friend on another message board, and she's registered with Greek Chat so she can give us the details! I promised not to reveal her name just yet, though...!!!

I have a good friend that will be rushing at Roanoke College next year, but they have winter rush, I believe....

UF RUSH
 

Our rush starts August 17-24, its the week before school starts, good luck to all the PNMS!!!

Especially all the ones who are going to be Gators!!!

Here at USF recruitment starts the week before classes. We already have all our outfits picked out and we all get our houses this fall to rush in :) GO BULLS :D :D

mtsu - i'm rushing this fall, too. i'm already nervous!

I really hate the way my school does rush. We have ours roughly six weeks after school starts and we cannot even breathe in a pnm's direction starting the week before classes begin. We have 3 days of rush and no knowledge of who these girls are before they come through. No pictures, no bios, nothing. They have 20 minutes or so to meet us the first night and then we start cutting. I really don't think it's fair because you can't get to know enough of the girls in 20 minutes to really be able to tell if you like them. I just think it's a vicious process. I went through informal rush in the spring and it was so much better because I got to spend hours with the girls, not minutes. Oh well...

Ole Miss has recruitment towards the end of Sept./early Oct., after the final drop date. Now, y'all know how serious recruitment is at southern schools when the dates for recruitment are changed to help prevent the disappointed PNMs from dropping out of college! That's what I heard the main reason was when they made the change about 7 years ago.

USC (S. Carolina) will hold recruitment the 3rd week of Aug., I think. We will be able to rush out of our beautiful new house!!! I can hardly wait!

This would be me.....:D

Re: USC rushes in the fall
 

Well, I guess I will be seeing you in August then. :) I hope it's later in August because I'm not coming back until the 21st!!!
