Smile *~*~Kara's Official Rush Story~*~*

Hey, my name's Kara and I've been looking at the site for a while now and everyone here seems so nice and helpful. Well I am an incoming freshman at the University of Washington and I decided that I really want to rush. Rush starts on the 14th with orientation. I am so excited but so nervous, I just hope that I can find a great house and they will want me too! So I just wanted to introduce myself and say hi!

PS I edited the title from "i'm new and rushing soon" to "*~*~Kara's Official Rush Story~*~*" because rush starts today!

You have lots of good houses to choose from so to speak. You definitely came to the right place to be informed on what to expect during rush.

Just keep an open mind , have fun most importantly and be yourself; ask yourself one ? (besides being or looking tired) can you be sister with the ladies in that particular GLO as you visit and chat w/ the sisters. The veterans will fill in the gaps I didn't cover.

p.s. sorry this is worded ackward.

Best of luck with your recruitment...I don't know particularly about what the chapters are like at your university, but the national organizations represented there are all wonderful...any one of them would be a great choice...just follow your heart, and be yourself!

WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Right in my home town! I have been waiting for someone to go UW. I didn't go there, but I'm a WA native and my dad's an alum so my blood still runs a little purple and gold.

Good Luck and have fun.

And yeah for Gamma Phi. Yes, I'm biased but from what I know all of the houses are very good. You should have no trouble finding a great house.

Hi Kara!

I'm glad to see that you are going through recruitment at UW. I was lucky enough to meet many of my ZTA sisters from there over the summer. They are a great group of women, any girl would be lucky to have them as sisters!

You have a lot of strong chapters to choose from, I don't envy your position!

Good luck with recruitment, I can't wait to read your story!

Welcome to GreekChat, Kara, and the very best of luck during Rush!!

It's been a couple years since I've been to WSU, but the campus always looks so beautiful!! Of course, I love Washington so I may be biased!

Be sure to let us know how things are going for you!

I believe it's a more competitive system than some others (not like southern rush of course).
