Rush Right book
Any one familiar with this?
http://suresister.com/ It looks promising - especially after reading her story - http://suresister.com/tales.html |

I just ordered it - :rolleyes: - will report back!

A thread was started about a week ago on it. 33girl also reminded us that the author posted on here once upon a time.

FWIW, she's a Sigma Kappa from the University of Washington.

Skimmed it.
The book seems to be geared toward socially clueless people who don't have many interview/conversation skills, so I guess if a PNM is clueless/awkward in that regard it may help. In terms of the process itself, it tends to sugarcoat things and oversimplify them. It's one of those "you are awesome and will be a great asset to a sorority" type of things. |

Thanks AXOrushadvisor and SWTXBelle for your comments.
GreekChat is full of great information for women who are preparing for sorority recruitment, I agree. My staff and I think there is good advice to be found in a variety of places on the net, including on our blog. No charge for reading the blog. :) http://www.suresister.com/sororityrecruitmentblog/ |

I think the step by step preparation suggested in "Rush Right" would be a big help to clueless pnms. I've given the book to the recruitment v.p. of our alumnae panhellenic - it will be interesting to see her opinion. |

The name SUREsister gives the impression that if you read the book and follow the advice, you WILL get a bid. Not so.
Also, there is a lot of "you WILL make a great asset to a sorority" going on in the book. |

Not everyone who reads ANY self help type book will succeed, either - but it does make it less likely. And fwiw, I haven't read the book, but I'm assuming it helps a PNM to build some self esteem and learn how to be a better conversationalist. |
Okay, I have just have to ask this about SureSister's signature: In Panhellenic what?
Panhellenic is an adjective; it needs a noun to modify, but here it's just hanging out there on its own. Sorry, but it's driving me just a little crazy. |
