advantages when living out
Hey, since this Rush board seems to be dominated by sorority sisters perhaps you can help me out.
My girlfriend is rushing next week (at my encouragement, we're both freshmen) and she posed this question to me because it had caused her some uncertainity almost to the point of not rushing at all. The question is, b/c all the freshmen sorority members have to live in the dorms b/c there is not enough room in the houses (that's how it is at Nebraska), what are the benefits of pledging when you arent' even going to be living in the house?
Off the top of my head I came up with meeting more people, being more involved on campus, having a group of people who will support you immediatly, and structured community service opportunities that don't have to be searched for (thus making it more likely she will do them). She's the type of rushee that will be successful where ever she goes, so I found it hard to come up with solid reasons that will prove true. The things I came up with weren't things she wouldn't be able to anyway. I guess I did a decent enough job b/c she is definetly going to go through rush still, but could someone give me one more reason?
