greek girlie-I pm'd you

We do the same thing with juniors and I think it works well for them. Older girls rushing is a problem-it's hard to know how to deal with. We had one pledge class that was about 1/2 sophomores. When they were seniors there were only a handful left. Seriously it was sad because there were fewer than 10 of them. You are always going to lose a few to transfering and marriage and such. It makes it much more difficult when they are older to begin with.

As far as defered rush is concerned I can see both sides. I am very happy that I rushed before school started. It made me feel more comfortable in a strange place. I probably would not have gone through rush if I had been on campus for a while first. My first semester of college was rough and I'm glad that I had the support of my chapter.
