OTW is right. There are people on here that will make it their business to find out what school you are at from the first post you make. Most are harmless . . but why risk it?

I know you say that you're going into rush with an open mind and that you hope that your established views will change, but it'd be a shame if you were at a disadvantage because a sorority member on your campus didn't like what you said about her house or the other houses, for that matter. Hundreds (maybe thousands) of people lurk here every day. You never know who is reading.

GC's a great resource, but as we've seen with some rush threads -- it can also bite you in the ass sometimes.

This isn't intended to freak you out, but if becoming a part of a sorority is that important to you -- I really hope you do take this into consideration.
