Honestly, the response to this seemed needlessly catty, so much so that I finally signed up just so I could post a reply. If I recall correctly from high school, Derby Days is a huge party weekend when a) all the sororities compete in some sort of dance/performance contest that they all want desperately to win and b) this is a big weekend for HS seniors who want to pledge a sorority or fraternity, so it's a bit of a quasi-rush situation (though I'm not sure to what extent rules and restrictions allow it to be promoted or spoke of in that sense). From my high school/senior year (not all that recent, alas) I seem to recall that not going to Derby Days weekend was basically the same thing as saying you were not at all interested in rushing and/or pledging, for guys and girls.
