1. Rush is fake and superficial 2. Most PNM's get rushed by only a few actives, so it is NOT a great representation for both parties 3. If the active rushing the pnm is not popular or well liked in the house, the poor pnm will have NO chance of an invite/bid 4. The popular actives who always participate, are well liked and hold offices each semester are the ones choosing the pledge class even though in the end the whole house votes (unpopular actives won't get the support for their pnm) 5. If the quota is 40, and 100 girls attend pref parties, pnm's WILL BE RANKED IN ORDER FROM #1 TO #100 (MOST WANTED TO LEAST WANTED) then it depends on how the pnm ranks the sororities attended 6, Recommendation letters mean nothing, so don't waste your time getting one 7. PNM's WILL BE DIRTY RUSHED, so BE AWARE. You will be told; 'YOu are perfect for this house" "I am going to make sure you get a bid" " see you tomorrow" then you will get your hopes up and your heart will be crushed into a million little pieces. 8. legacies are not a guarantee, you may not get invited back Being in a sorority is the best decision you will ever make; It has been for me so far. The more you put into it, the more you will get out of it. So, here are some tips to help during rush: Do: Be yourself at all times, ask OPEN ENDED questions to get to know the active and things about the chapter you're at- this can be very awkward, so ask away; ex: What has been the best concert you have ever been to? If you could describe your sisterhood in 3 words, what are they? What activities/clubs do you participate in other than your sorority? Do you have any recommendations for me? What has been your favorite philanthropy event. Doing this can spark a connection.... and THAT IS YOUR GOAL. It will seem as if you have been friends for a long time. ALWAYS BE POSITIVE NO MATTER HOW GRUELING the process is. Find a place where you fit in, feel comfortable; not just the girls but the house itself. Pay attention to the girls that are also going to those same parties as yourself; they could be your pledge sister. DO NOT: talk about boys- ever, talk about parties, drinking, tailgating, don't ever tell an active; 'this is my absolute favorite house and I will die if I don't get a bid" - you will be cut so fast your head will spin, don't dwell on being a legacy, don't name drop, don't correct an active, Other things to remember: Yes Greek rank places houses in tiers, but that is very objective depending on who is ranking. Of course, the girl ranking will put her house first; always. EVERYONE HAS A DIFFERENT OPINION AS TO WHICH HOUSE IS THE BEST, so don't base your decision on the ranks. EVERY SINGLE SORORITY has pretty girls, not so pretty, thin girls and chubby girls, back stabbers, hypocrites, liars etc there are at least 80 girls in each house, so it is very diverse. Each house offers friendships that will last forever social,phlanthropy,networking, scholarship, leadership. find the place 4 u
