Hey confusedgrl83, I definitely think you should try rush again in the fall. I'm assuming it's informal then. That's how we do it here. I had rushed formal in the winter of my freshman year, but I knew alot of girls who dropped out or just didn't rush. And so many of them rush informally in the fall. They are now in sororities and loving it. When it's more relaxed, you get to talk to more sisters and get a much better sense of each chapter.
If you don't find a place you belong in the greek system, go and try to form your own. Good luck! I'm assuming it's alot of work, but I wish you the best of luck.
Oh and cash78mere, that same thing happened to me. I'm from southern NY, and the words "jap" or "jappy" are used often, and not always negatively. The first time that word came out of my mouth in from of my roommate from Alabama and floormate from Michigan. They nearly had a heart attack, and were looking at me like I was the meanest person in the world, and they couldn't believe I would refer to a Japanese person that way.
