Although I’m sure that the account I described of Rush doesn’t sound all that bad it’s because I don’t want to be the one to give Rush weekend or sororities in general a bad rep. Being in a sorority is great, so maybe that’s why the path to get into one is so difficult. However, I’m sure there’s less... intense ways of going about getting into a sorority. But then again, Santa Clara has one of the more relaxed Greek systems, it’s almost unfathomable to think how intense Rush must be at other schools. From my personal account and from what I’ve heard from other girls, both who did and did not rush, I came to the conclusion that Rush is stressful, judgmental, it makes you second guess yourself, but absolutely worth it. All of the girls that rushed and made it could not be happier in the houses they’re in. And that seems completely worth the rush.
