Ole Miss drops GPA exceptions for rush
 

Ole MIss now requires a min GPA 2.5 to participate in rush and dropped the exceptions for learning differences. Maybe the gpa was always 2.5 but now there are no exceptions. I hate to hear that and I think there are going to be a lot of cute girls ineligible for rush.

:rolleyes:

You read my mind.

I'm with the two of you...I consider a 2.5 very, very low, and learning disabilities are no exception. If someone really has a hard time learning so that she can't maintain a 2.5, you better believe she does NOT have time to be in a sorority.

Are there really that many people that get into Ole Miss with lower than a 2.5 from HS? And I third the :rolleyes:.

Isn't it amazing that we all think alike?;)

I hope they'll use their freshman year to get a really solid GPA and then they can rush their sophomore year.

Cute but dumb... my favorite.

the $ was an unintentional post. I'm on the laptop and that touch pad gets away from me. But to the topic at hand, it is probably better if those girls are going to be released if they don't go through at all. Anyone going to Ole Miss is not going to lack for a social life, Greek or non-Greek.

BRITY?

LOL, I was actually going to quote it!

It's one thing to go through and meet people with a high chance of being released if the fee is small...$100 is not small.

I thought you did it on purpose too, estherjb! I was thinking, "Well, somebody is being honest around here..."

As someone with learning disabilities, I don't know how I feel about this decision. On campus, I have actually been able to achieve a lot through my sorority even though I continue to struggle academically.
