We L.O.V.E. to read rush stories, BUT more than that we want you safe through the rush process. Certainly ask general questions that might crop up during recruitment, first to your recruitment counselor, and then to us if you still have doubts. Journal your experience during rush and then share it with us afterwards. As DaffyKD previously stated, PNMs have derailed their recruitments by posting live and being found out. Just because a PNM only posts positive or neutral comments doesn't mean that it might not bite her. She might post that she loves ABC and had the best conversation there with a sister who is the student body president, cheerleader, Miss SEC, etc., and it is ABC or nothing for her. In other words, you might think that what you are posting live is completely anonymous and safe, but alumnae and sorority members of ALL sororities at that campus might know upon reading her statement who she is. All the other sororities drop her upon reading that statement and she is left with one choice only- ABC, who decides they like Laura Legacy better and drop the original poster instead. But hey, if you want to post real time we won't stop you.
