rushing and the dues question
My question is how to tactfully and politely respond when members show you the cost of joining? How to you understand not only the time commitment, but you also realize the financial commitment as well?I mean I said something to the effect of "oh it's no problem my parents are going to support me because they know how much rushing has meant to me and they are behind me 100%". In one of the houses we were shown the dues on the first day and when I said that, the girl was like "well not everyone's parents support them like yours. That girl over there, sister so-and-so works to pay her own dues." She wasn't rude, but I felt about an inch tall after that. I didn't mean to sound like a spoiled rich kid or anything like that, but I wanted to let whomever I was talking to know that I could afford to pay my dues and I knew what I was getting into.
I didn't know how to go about responding to this questions and asking for input until after, but maybe someone could give some good advice to me and girls going through rush next year! Thanks!!
