i don't think that this has been mentioned but by no means talk badly about not only other sororities, but also another rushee. whether what you say about them is true or not, it will not help you by making you look better than someone else; it just shows insecurity and sororities are attracted to confidence. my school's rush is deferred, so there is a lot of socializing between rushees and sorority girls in the fall semester and sometimes in casual occasions, and i've noticed that freshmen tend to gossip about other girls who are rushing. this is a big turn-off!

Absolutely. WONDERFUL ADVICE.

We had a girl rush and did not get let in, she actually said some horrible things that were not true about our sorority to other people on campus. I feel she said those things because we did not let her in, however the things that she said about our girls really hurt our reputation on campus. She did not end up joining a sorority so there was no one to go to to get her to stop saying these things. I wish there was a way to stop that also, but unfortunately I guess you just have to roll with the punches. Would be neat if you could sue someone for that for liable, not that I would ever take it that far, but someone spreading fake rumors can hurt your membership if it was really bad.
