I'm from Florida (NORTH Florida, which is just as much the south as New Orleans or Mobile--it's NOTHING like Orlando and Miami), and Rush was a HUGE deal...all the interested girls meet during Senior year and get the recommendations together. When I came to Brown, my rec was one of the first ones they saw...ever. Most people had not even heard of them. The Greek system here's pretty small, and people are critical, so the Rush is pretty laid back...it's like "come if you want, unless you're a total slut, klepto, or cheat, you'll be offered a bid". We offer bids to freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and the occasional senior. We have winter rush, and COB throughout the year for upperclassmen.
The character of Rush often changes from state to private schools. Knowing people at URI, UMASS, and UNH, their rushes sound much like the state schools down South, in format and they cut much more often.
