SECMom, I agree! My daughter was disappointed that Rush did not take place before Homecoming last year but I think it was a good thing to experience some of the college experience before pledging. I also wondered if it wasn't better for those (few) girls who arrive at Ole Miss having not sent (m)any recs - those few weeks give them opportunity to learn more about Rush and get 'things' together. (Of course, the hard part was the fact that they have to juggle classes while rushing... but they seem to handle it fine.)
In the long term, those few weeks are minimal.
