Oh yeah, definitely. Each organization is different but there's
usually a group of interests for each org. I don't know if it's because of the greek council in my school or not... :/ For example, I know one sorority in my school doesn't have an interest group... they just have interests. The interests doesn't have to do meetings or anything. Whereas other interests for other orgs do. It's just that rushing (which I find is a "Term used for the period in which fraternities / sororities and potential members become acquainted") is a totally different concept. I've asked other greeks and they've told me that rushing is what they do in some other schools but not in this school.
Based on many of the "rush" stories I read, interests and the organizations get to know eachother in a number of events during a specified period of time and at the end, the interest will (possibly) receive an invitation to become apart of their organization. (Excuse if I'm incorrect Dx)
I've come to understand that rushing is a campus-wide event that last for a few weeks... ?
It doesn't quite happen like that in my school. The greek-recruity event that occurs happens in one night once a semester and it's known as Meet The Greeks. Usually the greek orgs will do a showcase but it's all fun. They will do strolls or steps, etc.
Whenever there's an event in which greek orgs are present, they usually have a table where they display their paddles, teekees, colors, mascots, etc. And if you're interested, you sign up at their tables to recieve further information later.
