Seriously. This is absurd. No one in real life loves Greek life as much as these people claim to. The astroturfing on DCUM is getting out of control.[/quote]

And the people that hate Greek life would know this how?  Sorry to disappoint, I’m a real person who had a great time as a member of a sorority and hope my daughter chooses to rush as well.[/quote]

It’s just seen as terribly gauche. The equivalent to someone who, 30 years later, continues to brag about having been a cheerleader in middle school as if it were the highlight of their life. And that’s a generous comparison — a less generous comparison would be someone who’s just very proud of being a member of the KKK. I’m sure 70 years ago, it was all the rage, too.[/quote]

The OP asked about rush. We are trying to give the OP some sense of what it's all about. Then people who know NOTHING about it come on here offer their uneducated opinion. No one goes around saying, oh I was in a sorority, did you know that? how cool am i? Honestly I think the only time I have spoken about it to people who I was not in a sorority with was to my boss because we were getting a fraternity client and he wanted to have someone who know what the heck it was about on the biz dev call. I've spoken about it with my kids and I told them it's their choice but I had a good experience. They also know from friends who have had a good experience, and others who have cautioned them. They made their own educated decisions.

No one is bragging. Its so frustrating that you people have to pile on when you know nothing. It was a question that you need not answer because you do not have the answer. Walk on by.[/quote]
