Will Having a Rush Coach Hurt Me?

WestcoastWonder,
I am going to guess that you are trying to be helpful, but you are NOT Greek, and giving recruitment advice is ill-advised. The OP will think you are Greek by your comments and your signature, and I think you know that. Observing your sister's recruitment does not qualify you to give such advice, and you are dangerously close to being a GLO member/alumna perp. In another thread you even advised a PNM to pm you for specific recruitment advice. Again, I'm assuming you just want to help, but this is very inappropriate in my opinion.

I'm not new and I guess I just assumed that WestCoastWonder is a member/alumna of a GLO. Signature and misleading posts by WCW are certainly shady given this new information :-\.

I'm not new either and for some reason this slipped by me too. What's up with people who never went Greek coming to a forum specifically for Greeks and those looking to go Greek and handing out advice? Apparently, it's more than one person. It's both WCW and now, as I learned, Low Flat D. Both of these people need to step away from the keyboard and STOP handing out advice! I'm Greek but, did not attend a school in the south for recruitment. Guess what PNMs will not be getting my special recruitment advice? You guessed it, southern Greeks! Now, for those of you who aren't even Greek, please stop!

New to me, too, although I was aware the other person was not a member of a social fraternity or sorority.
The whole forum was set up for anyone belonging to any Greek organization, be it NPC, IFC, NPHC, local, honorary, music, business....any kind of Greek organization.
It's just that most of the discussion is NPHC, IFC, and NPC related.
There's still some out there that isn't, and they are active forums.

Edited to add: After reading Pythia's post...........nevermind.

If the rush coach asks you to sign any sort of release form allowing the use of your name or likeness or quoting you in any media, say OH HELLZ TO THE NO. Other than that, you've gotten good advice, but never flat out lie no matter what you're advised. If the coach wants you to present yourself as, say, an athlete when you trip over your own feet, tell her she needs to find another angle.
