What's rush like at your school?

[XOMichelle]

Ours is pretty much no frills, but we have a decent rush budget (I think (2,000?). We get matching T-shirts for the night 1 and philanthropy, and then make the girls buy back dresses for pref. Everyone should own a black dress, so I don't think that's a big deal.
The one cool thing we do is have pref at the Shearton Hotel. When sororities were let back onto campus in 1978 (we got kicked off in 1945 and had to sell the houses to the University), no one had a house, so all the sororities rush in the Student Union, and for pref, at the Shearton.

Rush isn't very strict, besides really common things like bid list due times, and cleaning up rooms after you use them. There are rules on what you can use to decorate, but I don't think there is a money limit. If so, it's much higher than you would want to spend.

The problem with rush is we have it spring quarter, and the girls are "rushed" by sororities starting the first week of school. Onnce April comes around, the girls know which sororities they want to join, and have ideas which ones want them too.
