Rush - What to NOT do or say

[adpiucf]

Keep your nose clean on the internet-- don't join any groups on MySpace, Facebook, LJ, etc., that would portray your character as questionable. Same goes for your language and wording on message boards and blogs. In the summer before recruitment, you may not have communication with the sorority women at your university regarding recruitment.

TRUER WORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN SPOKEN.

Also, pictures. Remove the questionable ones, or make your MySpace private for the month up to Recruitment...especially if you're at a competitive school. Plus, alumnae are becoming more websavvy than we have in the past, and it's not really hard to drudge stuff up.

Do not put anything on your Facebook/MySpace that you wouldn't want sorority members to see/read.

Whatever you put out there is public knowledge, and anyone can see it.

There was a girl in fall 2006 recruitment who wrote a MySpace blog about the sororities on campus saying that "most of them are for losers and ______ is the only sorority I want to join."

Some sorority members found it and passed it on to their friends in other sororities. This girl ended up being cut from all sororities after 3rd round because of it.

So I would refrain from putting anything out there that might affect your recruitment.
