My friend's rush at Pitt

[kddani]

I finally got to talk to my roommate before she left for our party this morning. Our return rates from 11 to 8 were excellent- i think only 6 girls didn't return- and at least 1 of them dropped dropped. She said there were 22 juniors going through rush- that's a ton! It's sad that there was such a big dropout after 11 rounds- maybe there were a lot of grade risks this year? I'm not sure if I agree with juniors counting towards quota. I know that KD has a lot of older sisters, and i'm sure other houses do too. Of course if they didn't count towards quota, that would've been insane. I'm thinking maybe it would've just been better to put a separate quota on juniors- 3 or 4 per house, max?

I'm sad that a lot of girls have dropped and that quota is only 14 and counts juniors. KD needs 16 to be at total, so even if we get quota we'll still have to COB 2.

I don't recall seeing any newspaper ads or fliers around campus.... doesn't seem like rush was very well promoted this year?

fire1977- if you can gather the energy- how do you think the computer matching is going?

honeychile- were you at rush yesterday?

Best wishes to all the Pitt houses for today! I'm kind of scared to see how many drop out now- 8 to 4 is always a big cut and a lot of girls get their hearts broken. I kind of wish the cut was from 11 to 7 (instead of 8) then to 4.
