Does that seem out of the question? And yes, I realize the probability of getting a bid is very low and I'm prepared for it. However, I would prefer to be active before alumna (I'm not banking on AI or anything-staying out of that argument) if that's possible. And nothing is going to happen if I don't get myself out there. That's why I've approached greek life even though they really have nothing to say about it. Hope that clears it up a lil!  |
Even if you went through rush, fell in love with an org (and they fell in love with you), and their Inter/National disallows active membership, you could still be involved with the chapter - either by participating in socials/philanthropic events that they invite you to, or as an advisor (I know my org has spots for advisors who are not members of a Greek org - there might be others as well). I know you would miss out on the ritual aspect, but if you do get involved with an org that way, it would make you a more viable AI candidate for a lot of orgs...and it would eliminate the "shopping".
Please don't misunderstand - I'm not saying that you should go through rush for the sole purpose of trying to AI later...you should still go into rush with an open mind and with the possibility of being an active sister, but knowing that your options are limited.
