I have no idea what I wore to rush all those years ago except braces. That I can remember. I think I wore slacks one or two nights and maybe sundresses the other days.
Rush was the beginning of October, and I had already managed to gain 10 pounds on Snickers in the 6 weeks I had been away from home. (I was homesick and Snickers were very comforting.) I didn't have a lot of clothes in the first place and I remember it was tough finding something to wear after gaining those pounds. I had a frugal mother, bless her sweet heart and a big shopping trip was out of the question. Besides, how would I get to town? Only a few people had cars at school. Most of us didn't even have tvs.
So, during MTSU rush in 1975, it must have seemed that a 12 year old boy was trying to join a sorority. That's how I must have looked. I had no fashion sense, very short hair, I was a little plump from the snicker diet, and to top it all off, there were those braces. Thankfully, the sisters saw something in me that wasn't based on appearance. I'm still amazed that those great girls chose me to be their sister.
