should i rush? if so, which one?

by:    

Hey,

I'm going to be a freshman at UW in the fall and am not sure if I should rush or dorm. The dorms appeal to me because of their independence and sororities appeal to me because of the connections and opportunities. I am a pretty social person but also really love/ need my alone time. Also, I would say that I'm pretty chilled out, super non judgemental and hate drama/ fake people. Not sure what to do. If you recommend I rush, please give recommendations for which houses to rush and why.

Anything helps. Thanks:)

At least go through recruitment and then make up your mind. Only you can decide what is best for you, but you need to be informed before you decide. I was unsure about where I wanted to be, so I did FFR just to see, and I fell in love with my house (it was a house I'd never even considered). I've never regretted the decision to do recruitment. Also, no one can tell you which house is the best for you; you need to meet the women and decide for yourself. Before I did FFR was convinced I needed to join the house where I was a legacy (if I did decide to go Greek), but when I actually visited the house, I realized it just wasn't for me, whereas I had an instant connection and genuine conversations with every woman I met at the house I did end up joining.

I definitely agree with the comment above mine. Only you can figure out which house is the right fit for you, so you should definitely try rushing for yourself and don't use this site when you're rushing.

Now when talking about rushing vs. dorms, I think there are pros and cons on each side. You don't get a lot of alone time in a sorority, but you're always getting opportunities to do stuff. The nice thing about being in a sorority is that it definitely makes the community a little smaller when you start college, so you're not overwhelmed and will have friends when classes actually start. My friends in the dorms have also told me they got really lonely during the first quarter, because they don't get a lot of chances to actually make friends! Just go through the process to see if it's right for you, and if you don't like it then you can drop before you get initiated :) good luck!
