Rush At South Alabama!

SaraKT · #1 08-14-2001, 01:23 AM

Hey everyone this is going to be my thread for my rush experience! Tonight was Ice Breakers/Ice Water Tea. I had such a good time meeting all the sisters in the different sororities. Boy was it loud in there all the cheering, singing, clapping, then the talking. At one house I had to keep asking the girl to repeat herself because I couldn't hear her, so Rushers please keep in mind if you are in a small room either get closer to the girl or try and speak where she can hear ya! All of the houses were so great. The girls were so nice, I can't wait to go back for philanthropy night! I never realized how different each sorority is but I'm learing alot! I pick up my invitations tomorrow morning but then i have to go to work (yuck) but I will post about what happens tomorrow night when I get home, which will be late. So wish me luck for tomorrow and I'll chat with everyone soon!!!!

Love,
Sara

Good luck with Rush!

I'm so glad you're enjoying yourself! I'm unfamiliar with South Alabama. Can you tell me what sororities are on campus, and how many girls are currently rushing?

Sara

OK everyone, sorry I'm late I finally got to see my sweetie after 2 whole days apart LOL. He's a manager at a Deli that just opened up so I hardly see him. But anyway on to the good stuff. I was invited back to the Chi Omega and the Alpha Gamma Delta houses tonight. I had the GREATEST time at both houses. Tonight was Philanthropy night and we learned about the different way each sorority gives back to the community or to a certain organization. At the Chi-O house we made beaded bracelets to give the women at the local cancer hospital. I think my 2 ended up looking pretty good. They also talked about finances and it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. At the Alpha Gam house we made bookmarks to give to some of the children at another local hospital (a different one I think). they were so cute little squirrels with the Greek letters and a little acorn at the bottom. My little bookmark was, well, kinda sad looking. The glue didn't hold very well. All the sisters were so wonderful, at least 10 sisters talked to me, they just kept dropping in to say Hi and happy to see you back! I can't wait until I get my invitations tomorrow morning. I will try and post which houses I get invited back to before I leave for work in the A.M. so wish me luck everyone!!!!!!!

Love,
Sara

P.S. DZROSE the U of South Alabama is in Mobile, Alabama. we have the following sororities on campus:
Phi Mu
Chi Omega
Alpha Gamma Delta
Alpha Delta Pi
Kappa Delta
I think about 130 girls are rushing this year but I really wouldn't know. I do know that 3 of the girls in my Rho Chi group have either been dropped or dropped themselves. It's too bad they were really cool, too.

Hi Sara,

I'm glad that things are going well for you. Good luck tonight.

BTW, Alpha Omicron Pi is the other sorority at USA and not Alpha Delta Pi.
