Rho Chi advice

[dgtxalum]

One thing we did as Rho Chis during rush was hold an ice cream social for our rush group, where the girls could come and hang out and/or ask questions with us about rush and etc. I think it was good for the girls who had questions, (in our group of about 60 girls, only about 10-15 came) but were either too embarrassed or shy to ask them during Convocations when they were with the rest of our group and all of the other rushees. It also allowed us a little more one-on-one time with some of them and they could view us as people rather than the girls that were there to facilitate their "fates".

Also, I know this was already mentioned but I'd like to stress it, have FUN! We did, and it showed. Even when we were doing such simple tasks as roll call, we'd laugh, have smiles on our faces and just generally kid around. This was for the benefit of all the rushees, not just our group - we were only with them mainly for Convocations. Anyway, we came off as personable and approachable that way, and allowed the rushees a moment to relax or smile in the midst of such a stressful situation.
