3) MANY girls dropped out of Rush after 3rd Round -- a much higher number than usual. I believe that this is largely related to the severe cuts mandated by Panhellenic -- a lot of quality girls were knocked out of the running by some of the higher tier houses that they were counting on, so they dropped out of Rush instead of going to Pref parties at houses that they weren't interested in.

Explain something to me on release figures...I thought that if you weren't interested in a girl you were supposed to drop her ASAP, not carry her through several rounds. Also, I thought that when schools required heavy cuts (for grades, class year etc) they were usually done after first round, so the rushees would hopefully have more time to get over it and focus more on the groups that they had a better chance at. I mean if I had been a UGA rushee and got the whole way to third round in my top choice, then got cut, I think I'd quit in disgust too.
