For those of you that asked, she did not rush as a freshman since both her Mom & Dad had pledged as Sophomores and had no problems (also at UGA but many moons ago). Their feeling was that you should get your feet on the ground and then rush. When she got to school, she did realize that it was a potential negative and she worked very hard to make sure that she did everything "right" this fall.

This is the situation of a girl I know who is rushing as a sophomore at UT next week, and frankly, I'm worried about her. It's competitive enough there, but to add in the fact that she's a sophomore who chose not to rush last year and, YIKES!
Last year, she decided not to rush because she's pre-med and didn't think she could handle the academics and greek life. She is now regretting it and wishing she had just gone ahead and rushed. She is going to make a go of it! Luckily, she has a number of friends in some houses, but still, the sophomore standing is going to be a strike.
I wish they allowed quota additions for upperclassmen. Back in my day at SMU, we were allowed to pledge 2 extra upperclassmen, it sure made for alot of happy gals who, for whatever reason, didn't rush 1st year
