Just heard they are expecting between 2,100 and 2,200 this year...about 100 or so over last year, so that sounds much more reasonable that some of the wild figures I have been nearing.

They have 4 days between when rush ends and classes start? What happens in that time lapse?

Not that I think it's a bad idea, it just seems odd that they would pay to live in the dorms, leave home so much earlier, etc. for 4 uninterrupted days of partying. Is it always like this? I've never noticed it before.
|
If they move in early for recruitment, there is no extra charge for the dorm. Heck, there are girls who sign up for recruitment just to move away from home early.
Recruitment is not the only thing going on. There are 3 or 4 programs for students where they go out and work on a Habitat House for a week, or do leadership skill exercises, or go whitewater rafting. And remember that the rest of campus is moving in that weekend. |
That's so much better than what my campus does where pref is the night of the first day of classes and bid day is the 2nd day of classes.

It was like that "back in the day" (early 90s) for me at Arizona State
