I feel old or sound like my mom saying this...but does anybody remember the good old days when it was called rush, not recruitment, & the girls were only ever called rushees, not pnm's? I'm only in my 30's so it wasn't THAT long ago!

You're not old! I know because I'm older than you and I'm not old.
Yup, I went through rush as an excited rushee too. I signed a pref card, then became a pledge. I had a Pledge Trainer and was given a paddle with our letters on in it which had to be signed by every member of the Chapter. The seniors purposely tried to make it difficult for all of us lowly pledges to do. I had phone duty which included door and wake up duty (no alarm clocks allowed in the dorms/sleeping porches). I had a Pledge Mom and was initiated in January. Then I moved up the Chapter Roll every year as new pledges came in. That meant I could speak in Chapter or pick a room before someone with a lower number.
YIKES! How horrible! How politically incorrect! I was hazed and didn't even know it! How did I ever survive?
