Good rush questions

[ROWDYsister]

It's good to keep in mind that the first round is about going Greek in general, with less emphasis on your own house, b/c many girls are still deciding if it's something they want to do at all.

The next rounds are about your house, and the video round and Prefs ceremony are about conveying how much your chapter has meant to you .

I don't know if it's a good idea to ask about "how much the chapter has meant to you" in the first round b/c you only have like 5 minutes with each other, and after the requisite "what's your major" and backround info, it'll be hard to give a complete answer.

I would be impressed if someone asked me about the differences between hanging with your sisters and hanging with your "regular" friends. I'd be less impressed if someone asked
how much time I have to spend on sorority stuff each week. I know it's not meant to take over your life, but it implies that somewhere the down the line they're going to use the "The sorority is not my whole life, I have other things to do" line when they're bailing out on an event.

But you know what's the best? When you find yourself talking about normal things for a moment (but not the whole time, b/c it is important to learn about the house)...it's not rehearsed and you get to see what the person is really like.
