I'm moving into my room on Friday, and Rush starts in only 12 days for me, but of course that seems like FOREVER!! I'm getting soooo excited! Any thing I should have packed that I might be forgetting, for dorm, or for rush? I'm just so jittery I'm afraid I'll miss something vital like my pref dress or something.

Hey Justhey!

Good luck with rush! Where are you rushing and what GLO's are there? As everyone says go with where you feel comfortable and prepare early to prevent forgetting things.

and lots of good stuff can come.

I saw an ASA sticker on a car the other day, if it makes you feel any better.

Best of luck, justhey! You're going to have a great week with four wonderful sororities to choose from. Please keep us posted, all the stories are so exciting!

Buy an all white dress. I know that many houses have a ceremony where you must where all white(nylons, etc). ASA doesn't allow any color on the dress. When I joined ASA I had three days to get a dress bc we had a special NM initiation (not the same as our initiation into ASA). Anyway all of us new girls scrambled to find dresses since is was after Labor Day.
Of course I don't know what house you'll get in, but I'm sure you'll get a bid. Plus a lot of summer clothes including whites are on sale. Buy one now This way you don't have to worry about this later. Of course I can't promise you that you'll get a bid in a house, but you seem to have such enthusiasm i don't see why a house wouldn't want you!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!

And even if you don't join ASA, the other houses will have ceremonies once you complete your pledgeship. But those girls can better tell you what you should wear.

I was about to mention the white dress, too! I'm an alum of NSU and when I was there all the chapters used whites for cermonials, so I'm assuming they still do!

I'm so excited for you going through recruitment...I know from your posts that you are so excited about greek life and will make an excellent addition to any chapter at NSU!

GOOD LUCK and keep us posted!

Alphsiglana-O Thank God someone is actually going to a school with an ASA chapter. I was beginning to feel my sorority didn't exist!!!!

LOL!

I know what you mean. I thought I was the only AXO in this area for YEARS!

AlphaSigLana · #13 08-15-2002, 02:51 PM

Justamom, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I love reading people's rush stories and for once I'd like to hear people talk about going to ASA rush parties. ASA isn't in the West Coast so many girls haven't heard of us so sometimes I wonder if being a small chapter makes ASA not as appealing as the other chapters?

HeavenslilAngel · #14 08-15-2002, 04:40 PM

YAY Ya'll have an ASA chapter. I agree with Lana I was beginning to feel the same way. We have all the sororities you just mentioned om our campus except we have Phi Mu instead of Delta Zeta and I also go to "NSU" just not the same one you go to. I just found that cool lol. Anyway, as I said before Good Luck! Keep us posted!

justhey76 · #15 08-16-2002, 04:26 PM

I'm leaving in a few short hours!!!! I'm a little nervous about what my parents are going to say when they see that I am living on a greek floor (See "Parents have a negative image of greeks" thread), but its not even my fault! I was just placed there. Ok, take a deep breath...
