Hello there!

My great-grandmother was in one of the Alphas at USC... I'm having a blank-out moment and can't remember which, however!

I just wanted to wish you alot of luck, and I hope you have alot of fun! Please keep us updated!

XOXO,
Annie.

Good luck and enjoy yourself, Chloe. :D

Chloe: You are making me very nostalgic for my college days! :) Sounds like you are getting out there and meeting some of the women in the houses, which is v.v. cool! Hopefully you'll get a lot more chances to see these girls interact on campus, so you'll have an even better idea of what to expect when you rush.

I'm always amazed when people say that Kappas look like movie stars. They've never seen my chapter, then. Not that my chapter sisters are ugly or anything, far from it. Each one of them is an incredibly beautiful woman. I guess the attitude is a little different where I'm from.

Hmm...

Well, regardless, you're in good shape. Best of luck and keep us posted on everything that happens.

I'm delighted to hear the Pi Phis have been smiling and friendly. I'd expect nothing less!

Chloe:
Ooh, I'm so envious, you sound like you're having the ideal college experience already. Love that all the orgs are out in force with their letters!
Good luck and let us know how the meeting goes on Sunday!

Sorry about the bad cafeteria food (A&M had the same problem) but I am glad you got to meet some Alpha Chi's :).

I cant wait to hear about your rush girl!! i hope you have an absolute blast :) keep us updated :)

Nichole

Best of luck...get ready to have fun! Can't wait to hear all the details!

You are going to have so much fun!
 

Thanks for the update Chloe. As you probably already figured out, we love hearing everyone's stories! Can't wait to hear about your Thursday night.

Christin

Well, girl, get ready for Thursday...rest up...and of course keep all your GC buddies updated on everything!

Chloe,
Can't wait to hear more! Keep us updated! I know you are going to have a fabulous experience. Also glad to hear that your roommate is giving it a try...a lot of very dedicated sisters start off as semi-interested pnms!
GOOD LUCK!

Chloe -
About how many girls are going through recruitment this year?

600 girls...wow! I can't imagine! Can't wait to hear more...

GOOD LUCK!
 

Good luck Chloe--as a GC rush thread addict I am as excited as you are! Have fun and remember that some of the women you meet just may be your friends for the rest of your life!
Keep us updated on all the details!

I hope you have tons of fun at your parties tonight! I know girls there and the Greek system at USC really rocks! Have a blast and keep us updated!

Woohoo! Who's up for tonight?! I know I'm SOO EXCITED. Good luck, girl! :)

And hopefully your feet will feel better. I can sympathize... I've got blisters already too!

Good luck, and have fun! :)

woo hoo!
 

Hey Rushees!!
Its almost your time! Please post and let us all know how its going! i am so excited for you!
Love
Ashley

Best wishes, Chloe..hopefully you won't hold us in suspense with the updates! :)

<tapping toes in anticipation!>

As yet another addicted GCer, thank you for keeping us updated. I swear, after reading all these threads I think I'm more nervous and anxious about everyone elses rush experiences than I was mine!

Chloe173....glad rush is starting off great for you. It's soo interesting to hear all the stories.
I am always interested in rush at other schools. I will post a thread about recruitment at my school (University of Oregon) once I get back and rush starts...not until the first week in October. I know what you mean about having all the fraternity guys outside doing bbqs and yelling comments...definitely gets old, not to mention intimidating. One guy driving by almost hit another car because he was checking us all out! You have a great group of houses to choose from. Does anyone know why Chi O left USC? Anyways, good luck and keep us updated. Can't wait to hear more.

wow-streaking guys-he he he. We had nothing like that at my school. The guys that lived in the apts across from sorority row would occasionally pull out the lawn chairs and watch but that is about as exciting as it got. Have fun tomorrow.

Karen

We had guys from Sigma Nu streak our all-sorority get together before rush last year. What is it about boys and being naked in front of girls as a sign of masculinity?

Sounds like you had a good evening and that you really know what you're looking for. Best of luck and I can't wait to hear more!

Streaking is fun, esp. if your a rugger

UCLAgirl is right... the swimmers do that all the time. It's part of the "welcome" to the new freshmen swimmers. I figure it's all good... they're buff, they're tan, they're not ugly. And streaking certainly *did* liven up the Rho Chi meetings. ;)

Good Luck Chloe in whatever you decide!!!
Keep the updates coming....i'm starting to pull out my hair!! :eek:

:D

When I went through formal last year I got mooned by the Delts, and my recruitment group was yelled at by the Sammies, Pikes, Accacias, Fijis and Sig Eps! One of the Fijis actually gave away a Rho Chi's affiliation! Anyway, reember everything thats gones on this week becuase you will look back and laugh!

Good luck this week with recruitment. I can't wait to find out what sisterhood you become a part of!

Sounds like you had a good evening! I'm glad that you're keeping an open mind, but still really looking for what you want and acknowledging if it's just not there. Best of luck...can't wait to hear more!

Congrats on your invites and best of luck! Keep us updated!

good luck Chloe!!! We're rootin for ya!

I have visited the USC DG house personally and so I will be thinking happy thoughts for you!! :D :D

Chloe, I'm sorry Pi Phi cut you. :( The cold, hard truth is that some houses on every campus have more legacies coming through than they will be allowed to take for the entire pledge class. The girls there may have loved you and felt a strong connection with you, too, but every group gives special consideration to its legacies. That doesn't mean they are promised a bid without even trying, but it does mean they'll get invited back to more rounds. This is one of the things that makes voting go on into the wee hours of the morning.

Look at the positives: You will be going back to the maximum number of houses today. They are all fine groups with strong national bonds. They asked you back because they like you. Now all (!) you have to do is decide which ones you like the most.

Reading through all these rush threads makes me wish that I could have gone through formal recruitment just to see the experience. I am a founding sister of my chapter and the only NPC on campus so we don't have formal rush.

Good luck and I wish for you to get bid by your first choice. No matter what GO GREEK
Carolyn

ahh i'm so stoked..i cant wait to see your next post!

I'm a founder as well and when we were a local chapter there was nothing like formal recruitment going on. Guess that's why I'm so addicted to these threads. It sounds like you're having a great time Chloe and I can't wait to hear about your invites. I also think it's very cool that you and Enna05 got to meet! Keep smiling:D

Chioe, I just read this entire thread. Congratulations on your invitations. I hope that you are able to find a home away from home among these six sororities. I wish you the best during the rest of recruitment!!! :D

I just got my invites back, and all the three houses that I loved (including the house that I really, really loved) invited me back, along with one house I'm not too crazy about. I was cut by Delta Gamma and I cut Tri-Delt, but that's cool because I really just wasn't feeling it at those houses. Anyways, so today I will be visiting:
Alpha Delta Pi
Alpha Phi
Gamma Phi Beta
Kappa Alpha Theta

Four houses is the max we can go to today. Today is slide show day/ skit day. Each party lasts 50 minutes. I can't wait to go see one house inparticular, but I have to go get ready, I will try and update by 9.
