Good luck!

Coming out of lurkdom
Just wanted to wish you the best!
I'm a native Baton Rougean, and although I didn't go to LSU all of my high school friends did and went through rush. One of those gorgeous houses on the lake will soon be your home too!

Didn't I read something about the "Alpha" curse at LSU.. like all the orgs with Alpha in their name that have had chapters at LSU have ended up folding ??

Nah, that's not true. I know Zeta Tau Alpha has a chapter at LSU and they're going very strong.

The Alpha curse has to do with all the NPC sororities that started with Alpha -- there were at least five or six and, over the years, all of them ended up closing. Try doing a search on it because I know we've discussed the Alpha curse at least once before.
The curse apparently hasn't extended to NPHC sororities, though, since Alpha Kappa Alpha still appears to be going strong at LSU.

The Alpha Curse"
If memory serves, when my friends went through rush in '83:
Alpha Phi had folded quite a few years beforehand, as had A E Phi.
A D Pi had most recently closed.
A Xi D was one of the smaller chapters.
That year Sigma Kappa colonized, but has since left campus, so sadly it's not just the Alphas.

Rush Update:
General Convocation was yesterday, and it was an awesome presentation.. Went into the ballroom with all the Gamma Chis lined up chanting and cheering.. It was a great pick up! There were a few skits to answer some of our nervous questions.. and they really kept us all laughing.
Met our Gamma Chi groups after that..and they were EXTREMELY helpful with not just sorority stuff, but helping us all get adjusted.. I know if I need anything, I can call my Gamma Chi.
Well, Round 1 starts this afternoon! All of us are excited..and, well.. nervous. But I've realized in talking to everyone yesterday, that I'm not as lost as I thought I would have been.. I think my friend yesterday called a "Gamma Chi" a "Delta Chee".. haha.
Let's get the party started!! (I'll update, but anonymously and with vague details..as not to offend anyone or to reveal who I am.)
