Rush Week!
Rush Week 2007!
For those of you who are curious about Rush Week I want to say that it is so much fun and it will help you to meet many new friends. While the introductory meeting with the Panhellenic Council members is a little confusing and slow-paced, it is formatted to be for information and not necessarily for fun. But, if you have not made up your mind, (I had) to go through Rush by the time you attend this meeting, I am not sure that it would help persuade you to do so. But remember-once this meeting is over and the open houses begin you will get a feel for Greek life and what it is all about. The Open house parties are great! I had an opportunity to meet all the active members in each of the three groups. They talk freely about being members and why they enjoy it. The following three nights of parties are set up to inform the girls going through rush about the differences and similarities of the sororities at APSU.
The three parties are philanthropy night-an overview of the philanthropic choices each organization supports, theme night- where every group prepares a skit and decorates according to a theme they select and preference night-the final evening where each girl has time to talk with many of the active girls so that she can determine the sorority that is the best fit. It is difficult to decide what is best for yourself. There are so many great girls in all the sororities but it is clear that each one has its own “style and personality”. I made so many new friends and now have approximately 80 new friends at the Peay! I am now a Chi Omega pledge and you may see me on campus wearing our colors red and yellow. For getting involved and meeting new people I say, GO GREEK! It’s a good experience! Kaley
