<strong>Subject:</strong><br />my rush story<br /><br /> Poster Message:
I rushed my freshman year. I didn't know a whole lot about sororities, but I knew I wanted to be in a top one. I had my heart set on a particular top house but come round 3, I only had middle and bottom houses left. I was so distraught that I dropped out of recruitment. I did spring rush that year and didn't get a bid. My freshman year can be described in one word: terrible. When sophomore year came around, I rushed again and on prefs night, I only had one bottom tier left. I knew I didn't want to be in a bottom tier house so I dropped out once again. I became very depressed and developed an eating disorder. It was the worst time of my life. When spring rush happened, I thought I'd give it one more shot before calling it quits. I ended up getting a bid. I was really unsure as to if I should stay, just because the house wasn't "high" enough. Finally I decided to swallow my pride and stick with my house. It was the best decision I ever made. Although sometimes I wish we got a little more respect on campus, I wouldn't trade my experience for anything. I found my best friend, I'm obsessed with my little, I am no longer depressed and at a healthy weight again. I am happy. I just thought I'd share my experience so PNMs can see that it's not all about tiers. Some of you will end up in your first pick house and some of you will cry when you see your schedule and will want to drop out. Please stick with it. You will thank yourself later. Best of luck and I hope you find your home :)
