[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD rushed last year and I was in a sorority.

I preface this all by saying, neither of us rushed in the South.  That's a whole different ballgame that I know nothing about.

It also varies by school but for DD (VA Tech) They suggest what type of outfit to wear for each day of rush.  It gets more formal the further you get into rush.  After each round you list you get to drop a certain # and the sororities drop a certain #.  It goes on like this each round until you get down to 2.  You rank them 1 and 2 and the sororities do the same.  Yes, you may not get your top choice.  You may not even get your second choice but I think that's pretty rare.  If you don't like the bid you end with you don't have to take it.  [/quote]

Same.

I rushed in the midwest so it is not the same. There were different themed days and you rotated through the houses, gradually striking those you were not interested in/them striking you. You got it down to 2 for a final "formal" night. You may not get your first choice, and some of my friends didn't, but everyone got a bid somewhere. You don't have to take it.

Rush was actually kind of fun. And yes, looks, clothes, etc. all play a part. But, in all, it was pretty enjoyable.

One the inside, Rush is less fun b/c you see that (even in places like the Midwest) the girls are supery bi---y and judg-y. I had it out with one "sister" who was making some really inappropriate remarks about one of the girls rushing . . . I didn't care for that process. [/quote]
