Glad to hear you both are active in the Greek community at Vandy because that makes me feel a lot better! Right now I am actually leaning towards Vanderbilt. I live about 3 hours away, which I think is close enough to home without seeing my parents all the time. UW is over 2,000 miles away, and that's almost too far for me.
Could either of you explain to me exactly what recruitment at Vandy is like? I found this schedule on the website and had some questions about it:
August 24
Information Session on Peabody Lawn at 5:30 pm

September 4
Sorority Recruitment Registration in Student Life Center at 2 pm

November 5
Panhellenic Preview Day

December 6
Recruitment 101 for all Potential New Members in the Student Life Center at 7 pm

January 6
Pre-Formal Recruitment Meeting at 6 and 7 pm in the Sarratt Cinema

January 7
Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment, Display Round, from approximately 10 am-7 pm

January 8
Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment, Philanthropy Round from apporxiamtely 1 pm-9 pm

January 13
Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment, Entertainment Round, from approximately 5:30 pm-12 midnight

January 14
Panhellenic Sorority Recruitment, Preference Round, from approximately 4 pm-9 pm

January 15
BID DAY

I guess what confuses me is about how early it starts. Since you can't rush as a Freshman until half way through Freshman year, why is the meeting in August so early? Why do you have to register so early? What exactly is Preview Day?
