Did everyone LOVE formal recruitment?

[Tippiechick]

I hated it... I was not treated well in several houses. There were quite a few inappropriate questions that were asked, "What kind of car do you drive and is it new? Does your mother stay at home? What kind of jewelry is that you are wearing? Is it real? How much money does your father make? Are you planning to lose those last few pounds once rush is over? Do you go out to bars? Do you drink? Do you know any boys here? Oh, you know a SigEp -- do you spend a lot of time over at the house?"

I can remember the houses that asked these questions...

One house even had a girl just sit there. She told me I was not going to be considered for that house. Then, she just stopped talking to me and we sat there until the skit started. Then, she walked away and left me to myself. Seriously.

My friend had coached me on what to wear according to her campus. But, at my school, the attire was so much more elaborate. I had to go spend $250 on clothes and shoes just to fit in.

The rho chis had their favorites in the group and tended to ignore everyone else.

I have social anxiety, so this just made everything worse. Rush sucked. That's why I quit. I rushed informally two days after rush ended and LOVED that experience.
