I agree, and sometimes the girl who is a great rusher for first round is not so good later, when things are more personal, and vice versa.

AMEN! I could have rushed a brick wall and gotten it to attend round 2, 3, or prefs, but I just could never do the whole "serious" pref thing. I always ended up saying things to make PNMs laugh. I think the only person I could successfully pref would be my own sister, because she wouldn't mind me being a little goofy on a serious occasion.

*A good rusher can make PNMs feel comfortable in what can be a very nervewrecking experience.
*A good rusher asks open ended questions that keep the conversation flowing and avoids any question with a one word answer.
*A good rusher exudes confidence that draws PNMs in and makes them want to see more of her sorority.

A good rusher is able to focus on the needs of the PNM and the GLO, and not on her own personal issues (being tired, hungry, cranky, . . .).

When I went thru "rush" many years ago at the University of Kentucky, I always remember one girl who took me at the first party after a lunch break. She looked great, & she was super-friendly. Then she told me, laughing, that she had taken a nap and had woken up to hear her sisters singing. She woke up, ran down the stairs, and joined the rush line. I looked at her and said that she looked pretty good for someone who had just woken up. Then we both laughed. After I joined that house and she became one of my sisters, I remembered why she had impressed me: because she had been totally, utterly, herself. We always tell PM's to be themselves, but it's also important for a rusher to be herself, too. This way, the PM's get to see the true nature of a girl who may become her sorority sister.  BARBINO
