Don't play the name game!!!! If you and the person rushing you happen to realize you know some of the same people, don't play the, 'Oh do you know Jane Smith? or Oh do you know Jane' boyfriend?'. If the person rushing you happens to know that person, it could be someone that they have a totally different opinion about than you.
(I know that is not explained very well and I'm sure another sister out there could explain it better. I'm just having a brain fart!)

Oh, boy. This is good advice.
This year in recruitment, a friend of mine (I'll call her Amy) who is in another sorority was talking to a PNM during recruitment. Amy had just broken up with her boyfriend and was still relatively upset about it. Amy and her boyfriend had met while they both were working at a popular restaurant.
While talking to this PNM, the topic of work comes up and Amy mentions that she works at this restaurant. The PNM perks up and asks, "Do you know John Smith?" (Amy's ex-boyfriend) Amy asks the PNM how she knows John, and the PNM replies, "He's my boyfriend of about a year."
Amy was DEVASTATED. Can you imagine finding out your boyfriend had cheated on you with a girl you're rushing?
