I'm doing my best not to add anything to the rush story threads unless I have something truly substantive to say.

I agree with this. I don't see how my saying "Go Gamma Phi!" (when it's a PNM I have never even met!) helps things. These posts just clog up the board and make the rush threads go on and on for pages. I read rush threads to hear about the PNM's experience and what rush is like at different schools, not to read 5 pages of GC members' comments about their own sororities. Besides, my letters are in my signature and my screen name. It's pretty obvious what sorority I'll be rooting for!
I think that it could really make a PNM feel bad if she has just been cut by her favorite house, XYZ, and she really doesn't fit in at ABC. Then when she comes back here to post, there are umpteen people posting "I hope you loved XYZ!!" and "GO ABC!!"
Why don't we limit our posts in the rush threads to constructive/helful advice or encouragement to the PNM who is being so kind as to give us a window to her experience.
Just my .02...
