Hi Everyone
I am new here to GreekChat. I just wanted to say that I am enjoying reading about everyone's rush experiences and of course all of the wonderful advice you are giving us. I am a sophomore at a college in the Midwest (I don't want to say which one yet because I noticed a few people on here go there). I formal rushed my freshman year but was cut from all of the houses I was truly interested in. Now I realize why; I was clueless as to what Greek life was all about. When the sisters rushing me would ask questions like why do you want to joing a sorority, I answered with superficial reasons like I heard it was a great way to meet people. Now I know it is more about sisterhood, scholorship and philanthropy.
I still want to be part of Greek life, I regretted it all of last year and the beginning of this year. So I have decided that I am going to do informal rush this year. I know it may be difficult, for I am a sophomore and do not currently know many sorority girls. But I really feel that I have a lot to give to a chapter. Our informal rush doesn't start until after winter break, I think. So until then I'm going to absorb all of the great information and advice you have for me. Thanks!
Lisa
