rushing as a minority

by:    

Hi all,

I'm considering whether to rush this fall and I'm really mixed about it. I'm a minority and I went through FFR this year which didn't work out for a lot of reasons. I felt like a lot of houses and the girls I talked to weren't very welcoming at all. Am I just thinking too much? I do know girls in some houses that are minorities but very little, so I'm just worried

I am a minority in a sorority!! Definitely wasn't easy during rush, especially when you feel like people aren't giving you the time of day just because of your race. Rush is the toughest part!! I think it's worth a second try for you

50% of my PC is non-white so I think it just depends on the house

Erase your fears by taking a different approach if you re-rush. Sororities often look for: poise; polish; compatibility; friendliness; ability to afford (NOT wealth/status); grades; adherence to their particular sorority's membership standards; prior performance in leadership and group settings. You also need to know a few homes may never be allowed to invite you beyond first party if they cut you last year (and unless you are an initiate you will never know which ones so please do not ask them). As you were probably told last year keep a very open mind as to where you join, all of our homes offer valuable rewards for those seeking membership.

Zetes is the most diverse frat in the GS. Only issue is that you must be athletic to be invited to rush. So if you have 3 varsity letters, there shouldn't be a problem getting in
