Can anyone tell me if their is such a thing as Spring Rush at Ga. I thought their only rush was in the fall. Do all the sororities participate or just the ones who need to get to quota or fill their houses ?? Just curious

Houses that are below total rush in the spring - not sure how many that will be this year since most of them made quota plus. Spring rush tends to be very informal.

Here's an article from 2005 about Spring Rush at UGA but I can't find anything more recent.

Not every house participates. The one I advise has not participated in Spring Rush in 20+ years.

And FYI-- House Total at UGA is at 170. The UGA panhellenic just voted NOT to increase to 180.

As of the end of Fall recruitment, not counting any COB numbers, the only two houses under 170 were Delta Gamma and Sigma Delta Tau. So they would be the only two participants in Spring Rush.

Just for the record, there *could* be other houses participating if they have a ton of mid-year graduates or DA's this semester, right?

Yes, technically, if they lost members due to resignation or December graduation or transfer, then they could participate in Spring Rush. However, it sounds like it'd take a HUGE loss of active members to drop a chapter below total if most chapters are so far above total that Campus Panhellenic was considering raising it.

Yes- that * could * happen.

Then next "lowest" house was 12 members over 170-- so that would take a heck of a December graduation for them to participate.

Oh-- the UGA Panhel also voted to *look* at extension. But as we know that takes years.

Do you have a list of numbers for all the groups?
Other than the two groups below total, what is the difference in size between the largest and the smallest group?
