Although it appeared as though every freshman girl at SCU was Rushing there were quite a few that did not. I asked around, and one response that I got was that Rush was very time consuming, and she did not hang out with that many girls anyway. This is an understandable reason--Rush was a 4 day event, and with midterms right around the corner, many girls found this to be overwhelming and decided to wait until next year, or not Rush at all. Girls were also discouraged from Rushing because once in a sorority, they would have to go to meetings and other social events  Thankfully, at SCU not going greek doesn’t exclude you from a large amount of of the activities. At other schools, like USC, not joining a sorority or a fraternity would hold you at a serious disadvantage for doing things on a social level. Luckily, this isn’t the case at SCU.
