I sent in my $63.00 check and they sent a card like "Oh, so happy to see you're interested in recruitment...SEND MORE MONEY!" I called and they said it was due to the incresed cost of housing. I honestly thought we would just stay in the dorms we are going to live in and meet as a group prior to the parties. I STILL DON'T HAVE A DORM!!!!! I guess I'll just have to wait for the mystery to unfold.

That's crazy! LSU hasn't done rush like this since 98 when a bunch of my friends went through. I guess its to give you more time with your new sisters before school starts? Maybe also they'll be pushing initiation up to the end of fall semester again - last year it was in the spring, I believe.
I can't believe the fee went up that much! Housing costs SKYROCKETED this year. My apartment cost 1700/semester last year. Its up to $1957/semester now.
Usually you move into whatever dorm you're going to live in that year and then just go to rush parties according to your personalized schedule, and meet with your Rho Chi at the end of the evening.
Have you called Grace King (res life) yet? They should be able to tell you wehre you're living. Also, if you go to
www.lsu.edu, you can find the place to check housing assignments online. Good luck!
