[quote=Anonymous]I have heard it can happen at the big southern schools where sorority rush requires letters of recommendation and legacy status. I went to a small Midwestern university with a high Greek participation rate and everyone who rushes will get in somewhere. I think it is really easy during rush to get caught up in the hype and feel like you MUST match somewhere. Rushees were highly discouraged from “suiciding” or picking only one house. I ranked 2 and luckily got my top choice. In hindsight, Greek life is a big commitment. I would encourage my kids to only rank houses they really connected with and could see themselves joining - even if it means potentially being shut out. I would not want my kid to “make do” with house that’s not a good fit when there are so many non-Greek ways to build a strong social network and community on most campuses. [/quote]
