At U of A, you either are attached to a group/organization (whether it be band, Greek, athletic, even the dorm you live in, or something else) or you pretty much "don't exist". It's such a large campus that most students are encouraged to join something in order to give them a "home base" or an anchor. Otherwise you can feel very lost.

Anyway, I visted U of A THREE times before I finally decided that I just didn't fit in. I wasn't comfortable on campus...no one talked to me when I was walking around. I didn't feel comfortable there, it wasn't for me, and I didn't go. Had I gone to U of A, I would not have considered recruitment. I wasn't that "type"...it didn't appeal to me. The smaller school I went to did appeal to me...the recruitment style fit better as well (didn't like all of it, but most of it worked...)

In any case, I think that you could add to the argument that the TYPE of women choosing to attend the SEC schools drive the type of recruitment that happens.
Yay! Yay!! Yay!!!

I agree. I know that when we were discussing Ole Miss and why a new sorority wouldn't succeed there, everyone mentioned tradition. Ergo if you are not big on that sort of steeped in decades tradition, you probably won't be at Ole Miss to begin with.

If you played "Freaky Friday" with the student bodies of say LSU and Harvard - the rushes would probably change as well!
