Okay, let me clarify a few things: My friend is in XYZ. She pledged Fall 99. Spring 00 XYZ had an informal rush, which is *extremely extremely* rare at LSU. I just happened to run into her one day and I told her that I regretted dropping out of rush and she said "well, next week, we're having a party for informal, would you like to come?" And I accepted the invitation. After that first party, I was cut. I don't think my friend knew of the rule, honestly, since she had just become active and had never been through rush before.
I'm honestly a little bit confused as to how/why XYZ contacted me at all. I just moved and have a new phone number, so if greek affairs had me as a "no bid" from formal, my info would be different.
Either way, I'm pretty wary of this whole thing. I'm a second semester junior. I've been cut from this house twice during formal rush and once during informal. I'm not positive that the phone call was about rush, either, but it sure sounded like it.
I would love to be a part of this org. The girls are great, and I love the chapter's philanthropy. I also know that I would be an asset to them. I have a 3.76 cumulative GPA, I'm involved in a service org, 2 professional orgs and an honor society. I just fear getting let down again.
