Have a great time...
You are starting a new chapter in your life...college...and, if you do pledge, you are choosing an affiliation you will have for life--along the same lines as your name.
Keep an open mind and if you find yourself liking ABC house though you were sure you were going to fit right into BCA house before showing up, then don't be afraid to follow where you are most comfortable!
And, not to put a damper on your Rush, but if you don't get your first preference on Bid Day, give the chapter that extended you a bid a try. These women love their organization and want to share it with you. One of the most hurtful things that ever happened to me as a member was right after rush we had a couple rushees end up with bids that hadn't been to the house for many rounds before. One girl was very upset and went downstairs to call her parents. We tried to be very kind to her, get her a glass of water and show her where her room was, etc. She treated us so horribly and when she got on the phone (you couldn't help but hear) she was screaming at her dad how much she hated us and what a stupid house we were, etc., etc.
If my best friend and pledge sister wouldn't have given us a try, though we weren't her first choice, we wouldn't have met and ended up best friends for life. Things have a way of working out!!
Keep in touch and let us know how your rush is going!! GOOD LUCK!!

I know we're all enthusiastic, but let's remember there are a variety of reasons, good and not-so-good, that account for a PNM's silence.

Be yourself. Let your personality shine through, but remember to be tactful and considerate. There is no point in pretending to be someone you're not (and even worse, lying)...if you have to try so hard to fit in with a particular sorority that you drastically try to change your personality, that is not the sorority for you.

Just wanted to thank everyone for all the advice! I used it all and now I am a proud member of Kappa Delta! They were one of my top choices from the very beginning and I am so excited that I'm with them!
I was surprised though how quickly I changed views on different sororities. There was one I did not care for at the very beginning, but I kept an open mind and I ended up going to their pref. party. I think it really just depends on who you talk to at each house. Different girls can give you different views of their sorority.
Just to let you all know, there were over 900 girls rushing at UK this year! It was crazy, especially on Bid Day when we were all walking the streets together in our white dresses!
