California rushees

[CAgal]

I was reading the " to all sorority girls..." thread and I was wondering how important recommindations are in the rush process in California. I spoke to the Office of Student Life at the Berkeley campus a while back and they said it was not needed and many rushees don't have them at all. But this posts have got me thinking if I should worry about them. I have about 5-6 I could get from family and friends if need be. Also, what about resumes are they only needed in certain areas of the country that have highly competitive rushes like the South. (I didn't ask about that when I called Berekley) I will be a junior transfer next fall at either UC Berkeley (MY NO.1 CHOICE), UC Davis, or UCLA. A while back I asked about the difficulty of rushing as a junior which I am totally paraniod about but it doesn't seem as harshly critiqued in large UC campuses that are use to a large influx of tranfer students. Anyway, my question is to CA greeks or anyone who might have insight if such things are required to rush and their experience. I just keep thinking it's only 5/6 months away...


Thanks!!
