Okay, guys, I stand corrected on the part about summer jobs. Although there are houses that will see this negatively, those are probably chapters you don't want to be a part of anyhow. At one house, when I said I worked all summer, it was followed up with "really? what do your parents do for a living?" which is a question no rushee should ever have to answer.
As a side note, though, other vacations, etc. may just happen to be a more interesting conversation topic.
On the other hand, I stand behind what I said about the Rho Chis. If you come into your rush group talking about getting drunk, hooking up, or anything else you shouldn't be doing, don't think that your rho chi won't tell the chapter. If you bash a house in front of your rho chi (which you shouldn't be doing anyway), and it happens to be her house, you can be damn sure you won't be invited back.
This is not some terrible betrayal on the part of the rho chi's, it is just how things are. She has the right to speak up if she really does not feel you should be in her house.
