Our rush at Pitt is about a week long. It is longer in the fall and shorter in the spring. Smaller houses don’t have events every day but larger houses will have as many as possible. It’s very laid back nothing is mandatory you don’t have to go to all the houses and can only rush one house if you want to. If rush ends on a Thursday, like it usually does, houses can start handing out bids Monday. So most people have their bids by wed and they are due by 5 on Friday. In the past all the fraternities would have a 5:01 party that started right after bids were due at 5:01 pm. It’s an ok system, it favors the larger houses but the smaller ones do well too.
