I rushed my fresh. year, but I was an RA my soph. and jr. years.
There were several conflicts...silence period before/during rush, after the fresh. rushed, several would "try" to take advantage of you, etc. My DZ hall was also in my dorm and several of my sisters would want me to bend or break rules for them. I had plenty of time to do both RA and sister stuff. Time was never an issue. I enjoyed being an RA, but decided my sen. year to move off campus. Working a fresh. hall is hard because they are not used to college life yet and are very needy. You have to be there for them 24/7 the first few weeks. It was a good recruitment tool thought., my hall was the only greek hall in the building and several of the RA's were also DZ's. ahhh....the good ole days!
