This thread makes me laugh - I dropped out of formal rush for a stupid reason, but I think it was probably meant to be -

In the first week of classes I made friends with a guy who was in two of my classes. So I agreed to tag along with him to a fraternity rush event (He figured, if you show up with women, what fraternity wouldn't want you? ha)

While I was there I was mobbed by members of XYZ sorority who totally dirty rushed me and this other girl (It was hands off week so none of them were allowed to talk to us, much less 5 of them). The other freshman girl and I were both polite and everything at first, but later we both went to the restroom together and 'fessed that these women were the dumbest, shallowest, bimbos we had ever met. So we made up some really crazy story and left, giggling the whole way. Well when I attended the pre-rush meeting the Rho Chis told us that we had to go to EVERY house. ohmigod there was no way I could show my face at XYZ after that silly story I told them. It had not occurred to me that I had to go to every house no matter what!

So I dropped out of formal rush completely to avoid having that one house.

Anyway, it worked out well because I had a semester to see the REAL character off all the houses and ended up getting an informal bid to Kappa in the Spring, which I knew all along was the only house for me.

And although I didn't choose on color, I don't think there's anything wrong with it - I mean, its the color you wear the rest of your life, might as well like it! ha
