This is HUGE!!! One year almost an entire Rho Chi group went to XYZ house at my school. We were all so confused (because some of the girls didn't really "fit" with that chapter) but then we remembered one loud mouthed girl who was in that group who had dropped out of rush the year before because she was cut from everyone except for one house.

We found out later (after about half of them de-pledged) that this girl had convinced all of them to go XYZ. Half of them hated it and ended up having to rush again.

Moral of the story: don't listen to the loud mouthed girl in your rush group about ANYTHING. She is NOT an expert on anything, and if she knows a lot about the houses on campus then that probably means she has already been through the process...and look how well that worked for her.

Trust yourself during this process because you're the one who has to live with your decision!
