Ok! Since this forum is still moving slowly, and since I have exams next week and will be sort of semi-observing strict silence on GC for break and rush week, I thought I'd post a little bit about what my chapter is doing each night of rush this year so y'all can enjoy that. I'll post every day corresponding to what we'll do on that day of the week.
Our first night of rush is January 6. That's philanthropy night for us. We're trying some new things. Traditionally we've painted letter blocks for Links to Literacy (one of our national philanthropies) and given them to Head Start, but it tends to get messy even with cleanup wipes and usually the PNMs go kinda slowly on them so we have to end up finishing the batch after rush. So this year we're going to do a local philanthropy and make these beautiful stuffed angels and give them to the DC Childrens' Hospital. On philanthropy night we do not do bumping, we just have PNMs sit with one active, ususally someone they know, at table with several other PNM-active groups. We have table tents about all our philanthropies and lattices with pictures of our philanthropy events (Dhall takeover, flag football tourney, etc). Our VP Moral talks a little bit about our national and local philanthropies. We are wearing white polo shirts with wine embroidery of our letters and "Pi Beta Phi" spelled out on the pocket area, dark jeans, sneakers, and optional Pi Phi hair ribbons (oooh!). For any Pi Phis that know our rush songs our entrance song is "Hello you Rushees" and our exit song is "Goodbye, Goodbye".
YEAH! This is so fun. I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL RUSH!!!!!!
