[quote=Anonymous]Rush is a series of get togethers where all potential new members get to meet all sororities on campus and get to know the women.

Lets say you are at a school w 10 sororities. The first day of rush week, all women rushing go to a series of 10 get togethers/parties. They are each like an hour or so long and the sorority lets you know about them and you let them know about you. Its usually an informal event since its a huge group of like 100 people trudging from party to party. So your fit is casual (what casual means depends on the school, as Bama has taught us).  Then that night you reflect on who you met and which houses you want to learn more about and you rank them 1-10. The sororities also discuss the women they met and who they want to get to know better and they decide who to give bids to come back the next day.

The second night you will go to maybe 8 houses. The parties will be a little bit longer, there will be maybe 50-75 women w you this time vs 100. Itll be a diff attire that night as well, rush week usually gets progressively more formal. Anyway, that night the rushees again reflect on the houses they met and where they think they would best fit. Houses do the same. Then the rushees again rank their preferences 1-8 and the sororities again do the same.

Next night, more parties, maybe 5 houses. Every night you are narrowing down where you best fit and vice versa. Then maybe 3 the next night. You get my drift.

At the end of it all, sororities choose who to give a bid to and women choose to accept or not. It can be painful for rushees who really wanted a certain house but didnt get it. Like if DZ is  the top house on campus a lot of women will be heartbroken not to get picked by DZ. [/quote]
