I made a 2.5 last semester, and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am going to raise my GPA at the end of this Fall Semester, I'm wondering how best to approach Spring Rush, this fall we had almost 200 girls rushing! U. Houston is relatively small, they had a cap of 55 girls per chapter, but that is obviously now OUT!

I've heard from a few girls that spring rush get's far fewer girls and is somewhat less formal, ie, the silence clause isn't as huge, and girls go out to dinner with the chapter(s) and etc. It's a bit more personal, which I hope will benefit me.

I read the posts on what to and not to talk about, at parties and the etc, no boys, booze, beliefs, etc. I've know my dream chapter, and I got along immediately with the girls in it, and I've studied some of their philosophy, creed, philanthropy, and beliefs, but I'm just not sure how to really go about recruitment in the spring.

right now my greek website only contains information for the girls currently in pledge for their sororities, bid day was just on sunday!

Hope I was thorough!

Thanks so much!
Lyss
Some advice: Keep an open mind. It would be a good idea to be interested in more than one of the groups (if more than one does spring recruitment). You never know what might happen. Dream Chapter might not even hold spring recruitment, or you could not receive a bid from them.
