IrishPipes' Retro Recruitment Story

[DeltaBetaBaby]

IP, I picked out about 8 of the chapters from your notes, even though I did not rush until 1999. It's amazing how much stays the same. Maybe I will do mine sometime soon.

As a side note, my rush was 19 >> 10 >> 5 >> 3, so they didn't make you cut down quite as many from round 1 to round 2. We actually had 22 parties in round 1, but only 19 were NPC. The others were associate members of our CPH, and 4-H, which has full standing in the CPH.

For my rush, Phi Beta Chi and 4-H did a presentation at the orientation, but did not participate in rush even though they were housed sororities and members of panhellenic. To be eligible for 4-H you had to have 4 or 5 years of 4-H under your belt so I guess they didn't want to make everyone go there when so few would be eligible. Phi Beta Chi was a Christian group, I believe.
