the scoop on smu rush

My daughter just went through rush. She wasn't nervous, but I was because of all the horrible postings on this site! (Yes, moms read this site, too). For any moms of future rushees, don't worry. My daughter is not from Texas and doesn't wear all designer clothes, but she had a great rush. She and her friends all got bids - some got their first choice, some their second or third choice, but for the most part all are happy. Yes, there are some disappointed girls and that happens (at ALL schools, not just SMU), but the whole process is not as terrible and mean as it's made out to be. The girls felt welcomed at all the houses, ended up liking many of the ones where they didn't know as many of the actives. And, of all the friends that have bids, only one was a legacy. Thank you SMU sororities for putting on a very nice rush and being so kind to the girls in spite of a selection process that is, at best, difficult for everyone.
