rush week, decoded
so what even is rush?tap
basically it's recruitment. you're checking out houses, they're checking out you
it's usually one week, early in the fall
and it's chill. cookouts, pickup ball, video games, going out. none of that scripted round stuff the girls do
first thing, go registertap
you actually have to sign up on your school's IFC site
quick form, sometimes a small fee
a lot of schools make you hit an orientation too. skip it and you're not eligible
the #1 thingtap
talk to as many brothers as you can. every house you go to
it's not about impressing everyone at once, it's one convo at a time
one guy who likes you can change your whole rush. and your pledge experience after
quick vocab so you're not losttap
PNM = you, during rush
bid = an invite to join. you can get more than one
pledge = what you are after you take a bid
new member period = a few weeks of learning the house before you're initiated
big / little = an older member who shows you the ropes
initiation = the ceremony that makes you a full brother
dues = yeah it costs money every semester, and it's different everywhere
the whole path, start to finishtap
register, hit a bunch of houses, talk to brothers
get a bid, take the one that feels right
pledge, initiation, and you're a brother
before you committap
look up the dues and any gpa minimum. don't go in blind
but don't go in scared either
and don't obsess over the touse rankings. the right match beats status every time
