I am an alumna from UT currently serving on our house corp board. I'm not directly involved with recruitment, but have heard from our chapter members and advisors that BIG changes are in the works regarding formal recruitment at UT, especially regarding summer rush. There is to be no summer rushing as has been the tradition forever. I was told that the national president from every NPC organization on campus has signed on to an agreement that there will be no summer rushing at UT. Instead, there will be some sort of information tables or sessions at summer orientation. There is also going to be a sophomore quota. I'll try to find out more details or have someone who knows update this thread. Any Texas greeks out there know any more on this?

LOL. I'm sure the 80 ookabillion old school alumnae will get right on board with that and completely follow that rule. Sorry to sound so cynical, but this sounds like the "frills will be completely gone from recruitment within a few years" speech I heard in 1995.

thanks for the help! i'm planning on transferring in the spring (i'm a soph right now) and i don't know ANYONE at UT. because i'm coming from out of state, a lot of my credits aren't going to transfer, so i'll have a while at UT and i really would like to do a sorority... i heard this will help when rushing as an upperclassman. i have a high GPA and can get good recs, but i don't know if i'll be completely shunned because i'm old! hahah, any advice?
