Hey folks, you may want to get out your blood pressure meds. Apparently “recruitment” isn't a prefect term. Lafayette has a new vocabulary word:

What was once called rush has become Membership Exploration Week (MEW)

The article ^^ has these tidbits, too:

“. . . This fall, 158 prospective sorority women showed up for MEW’s first day. About 138 women were matched with specific sororities on the final day of MEW. Only three could not be matched. The rest withdrew over the course of the week. . . “
