do you guys do any kind of rush in the fall?

There is a very small and underutilized formal rush during the first weekend before classes. First day is usually thrusday, and has open houses, the other days are invites, but I think that bids can be offered after thursday. Last year I think only 25 guys went through and less than 10 were signed.
There is a winter formal recruitment process, but that has very uneven results year to year. Last year the plan was to have every freshman guy in the dorms get a phone call, and that never happened, resulting in only 7 guys rushing.
My chapter since our reorganization in 1996 has not participated at all in Winter rush. The main reason being available space in the chapter house, as well as we would rather have larger pledge classes that stick together for the whole year, rather than 2 smaller pledge classes. Plus it makes it easier for the rush chairs and pledge ed to develop their programming and strategies when they have all of 2nd semester available for work to get accomplished.
