Rush 2015

The Football schedule for the 2015 season has been announced. The first open date for Ole Miss is November 14. Please tell me they are considering moving rush back to before school instead of waiting until November 14.

I'm going to guess either the weekend of the Alabama game or the Florida game since those are earlier in the semester and both are away games.

OLE MISS 2015 FOOTBALL SCHEDULE
Sept. 5 UT MARTIN - White
Sept. 12 FRESNO STATE - Navy
Sept. 19 at Alabama - Navy
Sept. 26 VANDERBILT - Red
Oct. 3 at Florida - Red
Oct. 10 NEW MEXICO STATE - Red
Oct. 17 at Memphis - Red
Oct. 24 TEXAS A&M - Navy
Oct. 31 at Auburn - Red
Nov. 7 ARKANSAS - Navy
Nov. 21 LSU - Red
Nov. 28 at Mississippi State - Navy

Rush 2015

Is there anybody we can talk to to request that rush happen before school starts?

Oh my... isn't that the $64,000 question.

Rush used to be prior to the start of school. It was changed to be held after classes had started for many reasons, none of which had to do with what was best for Greeks or the young men & women rushing. The schedule is all about what is best for the UNIVERSITY.

And that is why it will not change.

You are welcome to ask... but just realize that it will almost certainly be wasted effort.

Fraternity rush is delayed, too? I didn't realize that. Do they use the same rationale?

Yes, IFC rush is held at the same time as NPC recruitment. I think they just do it at the same time more for convience. IFC rush is very small, compared to NPC. I seriously doubt the same issues exist with the timing of fraternity rush.

We all know what can happen when a girl does not get the bid that she & her mother think she should get. I don't think I have ever heard about that same thing happening with the men.
