Well, Rush Week has arrived at last. I must say as a first-generation potential Greek I had no idea how big this week is to the fraternities. Everywhere you go there are banners, letters and flyers hanging. For all the festivities and general excitement, you'd think it was some sort of holiday. It's quite entertaining but a tad bit overwhelming for this Freshman finding his way in the world. Still, I can't say I'm not enjoying every minute of it.
Val Kilmer made their name known pretty much immediately; walking down the main walkway toward class, I was greeted by a giant "RUSH *VAL KILMER'S LETTERS*" banner hanging from the balcony. The guys at their table saw me and called my name, so I stopped and chatted a bit while I waited for my class to open up. They really seem to have taken a liking to me and I can pretty much guarantee that bid or no bid I'll be friends with them throughout college. I talked to some of Don Johnson's guys, and while they seem nice and really driven at the end of the day I just can't see myself calling them my brothers. Val Kilmer is where I'm going, and I can say honestly it's one of the surest decisions I've made in awhile.
I don't know how much of rush week events/festivities are for public knowledge so I'm not sure how much I'll be able to report, but if I get in I'll be sure to mention it.
