If your dad isn't willing or able to give up an hour or two of your time for rush, things are going to get pretty stressful pretty fast if you end up in a sorority. You need to talk to him now about what all of it will mean for the next four years.

I haven't heard of speed rushing either. Missing a party on your first days would not be a good thing at all either.

I would wear a skirt or cute casual dress, not the shorts. You will be really unhappy in white shorts if it rains!
I disagree. Sorority women work too. Facing the possibility of missing one party of 10, or better, splitting a party so time is spent with both chapters, is not a "Greek life is not for you" sign.

However you do need to talk to your dad. Even if there's a reason why he can't give you time that night, you need to tell him that you will have chapter meetings and other required events, and you will have to be present for every hour of rush too. (Plus workshops ahead of time and meetings after.)
