JustHey's Rush Experience
SORRY FOR THE LONG POST!!!
Ok, well my first night of rush was Thursday night. But guess what, I did not know about it, so I did not attend. I didnt get any kind fo paper saying there would be a meeting, and I didnt see anything posted around campus. And good god, I LIVE on a sorority floor, and most of THEM didnt know about it. Anyways, I was afraid that I was going to have to drop out, but, I went to the Student Affairs office the next day, and they said that it was just an info meeting for girls who had not actually signed up to rush yet. So phew, I didnt miss anything.
Good thing I went up there, too. I found out some interesting info. First thing, I found out that only 75 girls had actually signed up AND PAID for rush. Last year they had 150 girls go through, so this worries me a little. I know that quota last year was 35, this year its going to be closer to like 20 if more girls dont sign up.
I also have some fears. The first party night is Monday. What we do is we all do little crafty projects out in this main area of campus at picnic tables while the sororities (i think only a certain number of girls from each sorority are allowed to attend) just come around and introduce themselves to girls. This is where the problem comes in. I live on the AOPi floor, and I am afraid that snice the AOPi girls already know me better than they should, that they are going to come up and talk to me, and then the other sororities will see all of them around, and not even want to talk to me bc they may think my mind is already made up. WHICH IT ISNT!!! I really have no idea where I want to go, and although I think the girls on my floor are GREAT girls, funny, pretty, smart, nice, etc, how do I know that I might not fit in with some other girls even better? AAAHHHHH. I hope there are rules about how long a sorority is allowed to talk to you or something.
