TRIUMPH AND TRAGEDY
Many girls in my graduating class did not rush. They were frightened off by the horror stories. One told me she wouldn’t pay money to be publicly humiliated. Of my only two friends who did, Susan was my BFF and was going to our SEC school. Alice went to an SEC school in a neighboring state where her parents went. I had no doubts about Susan. She had to be was headed for one of the top sororities. I worried about Alice. She was a bit shy and a bit socially awkward and I thought those girls would eat her alive.
A few days after Alice left she called me. She was heavily cut and was left with one chapter she loved and one she just didn’t click with at all and was sure her love chapter would cut her in the next round. A couple of days later another call. Alice was a new member of the chapter she loved. She was so excited and I was so happy for her.
Then I received an email from Susan. She said rush just didn’t work out. She didn’t say what happened and I didn’t press her for any details but I couldn’t believe it. I thought she had everything they could possibly want.
My college has deferred rush so I didn’t have to decide up front then if I was going to do it or not.
