Fun! Are you going to reveal which chapters are at your school?

Oooh, I'll be very interested to hear your story since my school has only one of the 7 chapters at yours (Chi Omega).

Are you going to tell us when (what year) you went through recruitment?

I'm going to have to root for M&Ms as they are delicious!

Yeah...another rush thread with a Sigma chapter!

I had decided that when I read your code names that I was going to root for M&M's since that's one of nicknames my parents called me, but they're the skinny blond house, and I have curly black hair! Hmmm...I think I still root for them but also Kit Kat since I just ate one out of the vending machine!

Am I the only one that thinks it's a little weird/creepy for rush conversations to be stationed in bedrooms? I've read that in a lot of threads, and I think I would've felt weird being led into a bedroom with a rusher, where we sit on the bed and make small talk for a few minutes.

It definitely sounds a little ooky to me...but then again, at Duke sororities don't have houses (they don't even live together in dorm sections like most of the fraternities) so I have no frame of reference!

I've thought it was interesting, but I could see doing it if there was a lack of space. We had enough common areas - large dining room, formal living room, TV room, study room, library (really a sitting room). The only time where you'd be having a conversation with a PNM in a bedroom would be on house tours if you were pausing to chat about something, let another group pass ahead, or point something out in the room.

This is funny...because those are all the chapters my undergrad had, but I can tell from the way rush is going, that it's not my undergrad. We didn't visit houses first round, and rush wasn't at the begining of school. Unless she rushed way before I did, and things have changed alot.....

When I rushed at IU, we went into bedrooms to talk at some of the houses. I didn't think of it as dirty rushing, just a matter of finding space. We had about 1800 girls go through rush every year, and at the time there were 22 houses, so we had around 81 girls in each rush group for the first round. Add to that the 100+ actives at most of the houses, and that's a lot of people in the house at once!

Nah, I usually felt pretty comfortable in a another woman's dorm room when I was in college, no matter what the circumstances.

But maybe I'm looking back with a new perspective, because I did on-campus interviewing that would sometimes place me alone in a HOTEL room with one or two middle-aged guys. THAT was creepy. Having experienced that, chatting in some girl's dorm room seems like a piece of cake.
