No hugging unless the PM initiates it... and I don't remember anyone ever hugging me, so it hasn't been an issue.

I have a different perspective about the no hugging/hugging rule (question). I pledged and am active in a LGLO. When I went to Rush week eventhough I hardly knew any of the actives, we were all hugged or shoke hands with them. I wasn't freaked out about it , I guess it's just a part of our culture to hug and kiss each other on the cheek everytime we see each other. Even our non-Hispanic members, i.e. White and Black, do it now.
Everytime us sisters see each other whether in private or on our way to classes we always stop and hug/kiss each other and most of the time we get "THOSE" kind of looks from GDI's and other Greeks. So having a no touching rule for my sorority would really be hard. :) |
Truly, I think what most are saying is a "rule" is really a warning/suggestion from their chapter -- I dare say few (if any) Panhellenics dictate "no hugging!"
Ya know...what continues to amaze me is the fact that many collegians break federal & state laws every night of the week, but for some reason, are petrified to break a "Panhellenic Rule" on "no touching" the rushee/PNM!!! Amazing. |

This is a new one to me!
The only times I remember hugging during rush was at the end of the preference ceremony...which of course, was at the end of the week, and you usually had a good idea of who you were the most comfortable with anyways. We did take the rushees by the arms when they would come onto the hall...like, linking arms with them. Does that make sense? I guess that would be considered touching, although I see more of a problem with hugging than with linking arms. I think it depends on where you go to school....if you have a larger school with like 150 members per chapter, I think you'd tend to have more strict recruitment rules than at a smaller school where the chapter totals are about 100 members lower. |
