Well, I moved over to this forum to share my rush story. I'm fairly new to all of this. Quick synopsis, I'm a transfer junior at a northern city school and today was opening day/kickoff for the panehel groups. I learned sooo much about sororities so I'll start at the beginning.
From the very kind RhoMu's that informed me, there are five groups (including one that is just colonizing-is that being too specific?) which I'll name after the Ramones: Joey, Johnny, DeeDee, Tommy, and C.J.
I have to say that I liked it. I wasn't sure of what was going to happen, the girls there, what it would be like, but it was all very warm and friendly with the rhomu's being very excited. They gave us the rundown of the next two weeks and how we have to attend more than one event by each group in order to be preferenced. Overall it was very, VERY relaxed. I was expecting it to be more formal and perhaps more people from having read GC forums but I liked that it wasn't hundreds of girls. In fact, I really like how they set everything up for us to be very casual and friendly.
Afterwards, I went to the one MGC sorority that I had talked to. I haven't quite decided what I will do since they have a different time period but I won't make up my mind just yet since tomorrow is when 'rush' really starts. Whew, that was long! So far, I'm excited and definetly glad I started the whole thing.
