Ahhh!
 

Hey! Ok, so I'm getting ready to go to the first rush "event" (if you can call it that) which starts in 1 hour and 15 minutes! It is just an informational meeting - I don't *think* we go anywhere. What I'm nervous about is what am I going to wear? I had planned on wearing a denim skirt with a black top but I ran into a friend who rushed 2 years ago (she is also rushing again this year) and she said to just wear jeans. She said the system here is not very formal. I'm used to seeing girls @ UT where everything is pretty formal so I don't have a clue! Actually, she said what I had on today would work (I wore jeans, tennis shoes, a white t-shirt, and a black cardigan :eek: ). Should I go with what I thought initially? Please help!!! ahhh!

I say stick with the denim skirt. Even if you're overdressed, it won't be by much, and if anyone notices, it will be to think you dress well. But if you wear the jeans and it turns out to be not enough, that could make a negative impression.

Good luck! Keep us informed as rush goes on!

When in the public eye, dress nice! You never know who is looking! You can appear casual and still look great. You may want to seek out another opinion... I personally don't care for jeans, but lots of people on the boards have worn that stuff. It hs been said a zillion times. If there is a question always dress up, not down, as ong s it's in a reasonable range. A denim skirt is a casual look. If the black top isn't too dressy, I think you're covered!

Have fun!

Fuzzie Alum! I think you should be a designated board Mom too!

Good luck S_A_I

So Jessica, how did your meeting go?! We can't wait to hear about your recuitment! Get back to us soon!! :D

Hey, everyone! My meeting went wonderfully! We divided up into our Pi Rho Chi groups and the Pi Rho Chi's showed us to what to wear each night! I ended up going in the jeans and I'm glad! Some girls looked like they were getting ready to go clubbing but most of the girls had on shorts and t-shirts! I definitely feel better about everything, now, and can't wait 'till Tuesday!!! :) Thank you guys for your suggetions!
