Excellent point, MSKKG! Have things happened over the years to reduce the number / percent of dropouts? Wasn't there a time when -- at least in legend -- a good many Ole Miss PNMs would withdraw if they weren't invited back to ABC, DEF, or XYZ? (Whatever those might be for a given PNM.)

That's at least one reason why Ole Miss rush was moved from at the beginning of the semester to when it is.

Great news for all the chapers at Ole Miss!

When I was membership chair, my advisor was a recent Ole Miss graduate, and it was her first advising experience. Within five minutes of meeting her, she asked me "So, how is rush at Emory? At Ole Miss, girls dropped out of school if they didn't get into a sorority. I'm guessing it's not like that here?" This was 20 (yikes!) years ago, so yes there was a time that this happened.
