Ask away- we are all here to help you. I was at UK and was a rush counselor/Gamma Chi many years ago. UK is competitive, but not super-competitive or almost cutthroat like other SEC schools are. Relax- your Gamma Chi can ask the other Gamma Chi's about any specific questions- and if you have any important ones, I believe that you can contact the Panhellenic office at UK. But it is important to remember that everyone's experience is different. Your Gamma Chi's experience and training prepares her to respond to some of the situations that will occur- with others, she will be reaching for her own instinct on how to guide you.
Here is a case in point: When I was a rush counselor, one of the top girls in rush that year was a Pi Phi legacy and I knew that my chapter would have loved to have her. Before Pref night, she cut my house stating that she did not want to do it because it would hurt me (the PNM's looked us up in the yearbook, and knew all the affiliations, which she then told me). I told her that it would not, cringing inside because I knew that I wanted her and so did my entire house. I was disaffiliated, and had to respond as a rush counselor, not as a sorority member. After Pref, she asked me to help her decide between 2 houses. I had to tell her that the decision was hers and that in one of those houses the girls were more special to her than the other house. She had to decide. It is not always easy to guide a group of girls, and you should try to give your Gamma Chi a chance to show what she is capable of. Remember-one of the chapters on that campus counts her as a sister, and she may even end up being your sister, for all you know.
