Yes sir. Graduated last year.

I'm hoping to make the move permanently back to Northwest Arkansas as soon as possible.

Although I don't know for a fact, I would sincerely doubt it would be the case. Parice is barely able to keep the payments straight as it is, much less multiple payments.

Exactly. She's got it right. That's the beauty of formal rush. The fraternities get to pick over some of the slop for diamonds in the rough they missed and rushees get to meet people from all the houses.
