do you guys not have 'rush' or do you do Visions?

We have formal recruitment. We are from a small school with only two national sororities. I know some big schools have set days for Rush, like philanthropy night, meet the greeks, skit night etc. Our Panhellenic does not plan anything required for us to do. If our chapter would like to then we can do it; but that is about it. We almost always do a philanthropy night anyway. We also do not have a house. (no GLOs on campus do)
So our chapter does do a tradaition type deal where we have a themed recruitment. PHI SIG GOES TO HOLLYWOOD is our week long theme. Each night will tie into the other one. It might sound strange to you if you don't do it this way but we really like it.
since i have been active here our themes:
Fall 2000: Colors
(the year I rushed. the first night was Blue and was our philanthropy night. the second was Gold and was kinda like the "shinning star" night--we did dance rountines. and the third night was pink-for sisterhood. and of course the last night was pref)
Fall 2001: Love in Las Vegas (each night was a different hotel)
Spring 2002: Patriotic theme (did an ice cream social, etc. ) (this was vision events; COB)
Fall 2002: When Phi Sigs Rule the World (we did a philanthropy night, a sisterhood night, and the third was called: wild wild phi sigs and was a western style with real hay and everything; we made up dances and performed them)
Spring 2003: Phi Sig back in Time (50's night and 70's night. again vision events. COB)
The other National on campus does not do a themed type rush and their week seems kinda crazy. (I think this is also because you see ours which all ties in together then you see theirs) But our way works really really well for our chapter and it is a lot of fun. After recruitment we get such wonderful compilments on our rush, its great!
I hope that clears things up for you.
