0:00:01.000 --> 0:00:04.280
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Dirty Rush, The Truth about Serriti Life with

0:00:04.320 --> 0:00:08.520
<v Speaker 1>your hosts me Gia Judice, Daisy Kent, and Jennifer Fessler.

0:00:12.840 --> 0:00:16.400
<v Speaker 1>Hey guys, and welcome back to another episode of Dirty Rush.

0:00:16.480 --> 0:00:19.440
<v Speaker 1>We are so excited that you guys are loving this

0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:23.120
<v Speaker 1>podcast as much as we are. And Rush is happening

0:00:23.400 --> 0:00:26.040
<v Speaker 1>right now for a lot of schools, so we are

0:00:26.160 --> 0:00:29.400
<v Speaker 1>ready to dive deep. We know people have been wanting

0:00:29.440 --> 0:00:31.840
<v Speaker 1>this kind of show for years, and we're so glad

0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:35.959
<v Speaker 1>that you're responding, calling in, leaving voicemails, and sharing your

0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:40.519
<v Speaker 1>own Rush experiences with the good and the bad. So

0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:41.839
<v Speaker 1>let's get into it.

0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:46.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm Gia Judice, I'm jen Fessler, and I'm Daisy Kent.

0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:48.880
<v Speaker 3>All right, guys, So we've had a lot of people

0:00:49.080 --> 0:00:51.479
<v Speaker 3>calling in. Let's listen to our first caller.

0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:55.400
<v Speaker 4>Hi, there, my name is Rosie. I want to call

0:00:55.480 --> 0:01:00.720
<v Speaker 4>in and leave them constructive feedback. Like Fessler had mentioned,

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:04.120
<v Speaker 4>this is a huge untapped market and there is a

0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 4>lot of taboos about talking about the sorority experience, and

0:01:08.560 --> 0:01:11.760
<v Speaker 4>I think it would be super helpful if you all

0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:18.000
<v Speaker 4>talked about it from a nationals perspective as well, like

0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.839
<v Speaker 4>why we aren't really allowed.

0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:22.880
<v Speaker 5>To talk about sorority life and why we're not allowed.

0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:26.480
<v Speaker 5>Where are letters and the press and those types of things.

0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:30.160
<v Speaker 5>And then also there was some lingo that I think

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:33.319
<v Speaker 5>if we could break down a little bit better, like

0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:38.200
<v Speaker 5>what a press actually is, what a bid actually is,

0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:42.040
<v Speaker 5>what a pledge is, what a mixer is, those very

0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:47.080
<v Speaker 5>things that we talk about in the sorority world. And

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:50.680
<v Speaker 5>I think it would be just really helpful for the

0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:54.320
<v Speaker 5>girls in terms of how to make an informed decision

0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:56.160
<v Speaker 5>about joining sorority life or not.

0:01:56.200 --> 0:01:57.200
<v Speaker 6>And of course it.

0:01:57.120 --> 0:01:59.920
<v Speaker 5>Goes campus to campus, is not a one size fits

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:04.280
<v Speaker 5>all approach. But if you are Teresa, Judice.

0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:07.560
<v Speaker 6>Or and you know a mama or dad that is

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.679
<v Speaker 6>new to the sorority life or girl that's new to

0:02:10.760 --> 0:02:14.840
<v Speaker 6>sorority life, what that looks like for you. And I

0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:20.080
<v Speaker 6>think giving these behind the scenes facts is so helpful

0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:23.680
<v Speaker 6>for women that are that are thinking about joining this experience.

0:02:24.720 --> 0:02:28.440
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot okay, dirty rushing.

0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:31.360
<v Speaker 3>I thought it was sort of now, not when I

0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:34.960
<v Speaker 3>was going through it, but when you rush before school

0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 3>even started, right, And like that whole rush process I

0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:42.240
<v Speaker 3>hear in a lot of schools happens before rush.

0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:47.320
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so my ver. My definition of like dirty rush

0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:52.600
<v Speaker 1>was when like kind of like playing dirty. So when

0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:57.320
<v Speaker 1>we were at Rutgers first semester, we would almost kind

0:02:57.320 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 1>of get recruited by a sorority who had interest in us,

0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:06.000
<v Speaker 1>but behind closed doors so kind of try to They

0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:09.200
<v Speaker 1>were basically trying to persuade us to go to a

0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:13.960
<v Speaker 1>sorority before the rushing process started, so that our minds

0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:17.720
<v Speaker 1>were made up before going through the recruitment process.

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:22.919
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Mine was kind of like because we did recruitment

0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:24.880
<v Speaker 2>right when we got to school. I think we were

0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:28.280
<v Speaker 2>at school like maybe like two weeks and then we

0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:31.800
<v Speaker 2>went into recruitment. And so I would say ours was

0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 2>at San Diego State. You would like go out to

0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:37.480
<v Speaker 2>all the frat parties and meet all the frat guys.

0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:41.160
<v Speaker 2>None of the like actual sorority girls could go out

0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:44.000
<v Speaker 2>because I don't know, you weren't allowed. That was like

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 2>your like dry period or whatever. And so you would

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:49.040
<v Speaker 2>go and you would meet all these guys and they

0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:52.040
<v Speaker 2>were older guys like in the frats, and then they

0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:55.480
<v Speaker 2>would all tell the sorority girls like what girls they

0:03:55.520 --> 0:03:57.640
<v Speaker 2>thought were like cool and fun to hang out with

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.760
<v Speaker 2>and stuff like that. Both were going to the parties,

0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:02.800
<v Speaker 2>and I had no idea that was happening. And then

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:06.880
<v Speaker 2>I remember when I was like sophomore, and I was like,

0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 2>oh my gosh, this is crazy, but it was so fun. Honestly.

0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Wait, that's a wild definition of dirty rushing. Having the

0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:19.400
<v Speaker 1>frat guys do your homework literally doing this sorority home

0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:20.360
<v Speaker 1>wark right.

0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:25.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm they were probably basing it off of something sort

0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 3>of physical, that's just my guess. Yeah, fairly interested in

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:29.440
<v Speaker 3>what you were majoring in.

0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:32.560
<v Speaker 2>Probably, yeah, probably.

0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:42.839
<v Speaker 3>What about you guys? What about this other lingal rogamma rogramma?

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:46.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay? For me, that was like when you get divided

0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:49.240
<v Speaker 2>into groups, so like you sign up for recruitment and

0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:52.560
<v Speaker 2>then say, there's a they have like a bunch of

0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:55.160
<v Speaker 2>ro gramma gammas. So I was with a group of

0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:58.320
<v Speaker 2>like ten girls and then we have one ro gamma

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.240
<v Speaker 2>and she's already in a sorority and girl in a sorority.

0:05:01.680 --> 0:05:04.560
<v Speaker 2>You don't know what sorority she's in, but she's trying

0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:06.880
<v Speaker 2>to like help you navigate it and help you find

0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:10.040
<v Speaker 2>the best like place as the best like home and

0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 2>fit for you.

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:14.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she's she's in a sorority, but she doesn't have

0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:17.159
<v Speaker 3>any she doesn't try to influence you.

0:05:17.240 --> 0:05:19.520
<v Speaker 1>No, they can, like they're not allowed.

0:05:20.800 --> 0:05:21.640
<v Speaker 2>So there anyway.

0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:25.760
<v Speaker 1>No, No, you don't find out until the end. I

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:29.640
<v Speaker 1>mean you'll try to guess who, like what sorority they're

0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:33.719
<v Speaker 1>in as you're going through recruitment, but they're basically in

0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:37.799
<v Speaker 1>charge of like little groups. Like Daisy said, my definition

0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:40.080
<v Speaker 1>was pretty much the same thing, except I didn't call

0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 1>them rogammas. They were called pie key's My guys.

0:05:46.480 --> 0:05:47.320
<v Speaker 3>We didn't have any of this.

0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:50.720
<v Speaker 1>No, you didn't have someone like leading you and directing

0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.279
<v Speaker 1>you through, like to houses and stuff.

0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:55.720
<v Speaker 3>I mean, we definitely had people leading us through, but

0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:57.800
<v Speaker 3>there was no I don't remember talking to anyone, but

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 3>you know, the girls that I was grouped with, it

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:03.880
<v Speaker 3>wasn't nobody was giving advice or you know, No, I don't,

0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:07.320
<v Speaker 3>And if there was someone, we didn't call them rogammas.

0:06:07.560 --> 0:06:09.680
<v Speaker 3>We probably just called them that nice girl who's helping.

0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:14.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, honestly, it was so helpful. I remember it. I

0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:18.640
<v Speaker 2>forget the name of mine, but she was so insanely nice.

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:22.279
<v Speaker 1>Really, Yeah, No, I mean they were definitely super helpful,

0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:26.320
<v Speaker 1>and it was so funny because during the recruitment process

0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:28.920
<v Speaker 1>we would all try to guess what sorority they were

0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:34.600
<v Speaker 1>from and what sorority they were in, and basically at

0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:38.200
<v Speaker 1>the end they would all reveal which sorority they were in,

0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:41.120
<v Speaker 1>and everyone freaked out and like clapped their hands. It

0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:43.880
<v Speaker 1>was honestly kind of stupid, but I mean everyone, like

0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:47.400
<v Speaker 1>everyone got like so high, like learning what sorority they

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:50.480
<v Speaker 1>were actually in and when they like revealed their identity.

0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:54.200
<v Speaker 1>But it was I don't know, some of the things

0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:58.960
<v Speaker 1>really made me make me say, yeah, literally.

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Out where they're what other lingo I think she asked

0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:04.960
<v Speaker 2>what a bid was.

0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so a bid is basically when you are wanted

0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.720
<v Speaker 1>by the sorority, right.

0:07:15.640 --> 0:07:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah, so like at the end, I remember,

0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:22.240
<v Speaker 2>we got a little card and you like opened it

0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 2>up and like that was my bid to be an alpha.

0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:25.120
<v Speaker 7>Fy.

0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And then I guess technically during I guess, as

0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:35.720
<v Speaker 1>you get called back, I guess that's not really a bid,

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:39.080
<v Speaker 1>but I yes, it's like when the sororities are also

0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:41.920
<v Speaker 1>showing interest in you that they want you back, so yeah,

0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:43.680
<v Speaker 1>hoping to get a potential bid.

0:07:43.960 --> 0:07:47.280
<v Speaker 2>At the end, for sure.

0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:50.600
<v Speaker 3>We're either one of you guys on exact boards, I

0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:51.800
<v Speaker 3>was you were.

0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So I mean one they say it looks great

0:07:57.600 --> 0:08:02.480
<v Speaker 1>on your resume, so yeah, is something good just to

0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:07.760
<v Speaker 1>have like under your belt. But you know, you can

0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:12.200
<v Speaker 1>obviously be the president, the vice president, treasurer, take one

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:15.600
<v Speaker 1>of those lead roles on but they do take a

0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:19.120
<v Speaker 1>lot of responsibility. So I wanted to do something that

0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:22.680
<v Speaker 1>was a little more fun and maybe not as much responsibility.

0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:29.160
<v Speaker 1>So I was Special Chair of Events, So I basically

0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:33.320
<v Speaker 1>coordinated like all of our big events, which I like

0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:37.839
<v Speaker 1>doing anyway. I kind of like party planning. So I

0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:41.320
<v Speaker 1>planned like our b Mock, which was big man on

0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.360
<v Speaker 1>campus for at Rutgers, and that was like our breast

0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Cancer Walk because that was our philanthropy breast cancer. And

0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:54.160
<v Speaker 1>so I planned b Mock parents Weekend and a lot

0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:57.280
<v Speaker 1>of the bigger events that Zeta would do at Rutgers.

0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:02.440
<v Speaker 1>So that was a super fun, like little position to

0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:08.280
<v Speaker 1>have on the on the board. But I wasn't like

0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:11.400
<v Speaker 1>an exact because wasn't the exacts like that's like the

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:13.280
<v Speaker 1>first here, and then.

0:09:13.200 --> 0:09:15.360
<v Speaker 2>I would there's like ones under it.

0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:18.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so I was the ones like under it. But

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:21.800
<v Speaker 1>then exec is like the people who are all sitting

0:09:21.800 --> 0:09:23.800
<v Speaker 1>at the front during your chapter meetings.

0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I did chair your rush chair rush Chair,

0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:30.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh, probably so fun.

0:09:31.280 --> 0:09:34.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and I I wrote all of these songs to

0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:37.360
<v Speaker 3>you guys probably don't even know West Side Story like

0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:40.120

<v Speaker 3>of this, like the dances, and that was.

0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Like you were definitely a nice rush chair.

0:09:49.559 --> 0:09:54.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, rush chair was, well what is it?

0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:56.199

<v Speaker 3>Right, Yes, that's what it is, right, I mean I

0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:07.400
<v Speaker 3>start didn't do anything like I think.

0:10:07.320 --> 0:10:10.640
<v Speaker 1>It's also mainly now also like going through the social

0:10:10.720 --> 0:10:15.160
<v Speaker 1>media and the snagrams and finding your potential recruits that

0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:16.160
<v Speaker 1>you really want.

0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:18.400
<v Speaker 3>So you didn't have social media, you guys. It was

0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.880
<v Speaker 3>a whole different world. It was a group of girls

0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:25.240
<v Speaker 3>showing up a big group and us singing West Side

0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:27.840
<v Speaker 3>Story and hoping that they were going to think that

0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:30.280
<v Speaker 3>we were fabulous. It was just so different.

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it is so different with social media. I was

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:39.000
<v Speaker 2>on an execue, I did panelnic delegate, so I like

0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:42.400
<v Speaker 2>went and met with the school and met with Panelonic

0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:45.000
<v Speaker 2>when they came in and talked to them. So that

0:10:45.200 --> 0:10:47.880
<v Speaker 2>was really interesting because our.

0:10:47.800 --> 0:10:50.240
<v Speaker 1>School to get mixers approved.

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and like if you're you were on like probation

0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:56.040
<v Speaker 2>or something like that, if your sorority or whatever, it

0:10:56.240 --> 0:10:58.839
<v Speaker 2>was because you would show up to the meeting at

0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:00.760
<v Speaker 2>school on campus and and it would be like all

0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:03.800
<v Speaker 2>the other sororities there too, which it was fun because

0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:05.400
<v Speaker 2>I was friends with a bunch of girls and other

0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:07.920
<v Speaker 2>sororities too, so it was kind of a way to

0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:11.120
<v Speaker 2>like mix some mingle that way too, and you could

0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:13.559
<v Speaker 2>like pair up with a sorority and like do things together.

0:11:15.280 --> 0:11:17.800
<v Speaker 2>So it was fun. But I definitely like I always

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:20.040
<v Speaker 2>knew like the tea that was going on, I felt like.

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:24.199
<v Speaker 2>But then I also had to like do accreditation for people.

0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:27.120
<v Speaker 2>So accreditation was like I think a good thing about

0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:29.760
<v Speaker 2>sororities is that they like they make you do community service.

0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:32.160
<v Speaker 2>You have to keep a certain GPA. So I was

0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:34.520
<v Speaker 2>in charge of like tracking all of that and making

0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:36.920
<v Speaker 2>sure girls got the amount of community service they had

0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:39.240
<v Speaker 2>to do, making sure they were still at like a GPA,

0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:42.960
<v Speaker 2>and then making sure they went to like certain events

0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:47.760
<v Speaker 2>that like supported other philanthropies too. We did that, So, yeah,

0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:48.640
<v Speaker 2>that's what I did.

0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:51.520
<v Speaker 3>Did you enjoy it? Would you suggest it?

0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:52.520
<v Speaker 7>So?

0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:56.240
<v Speaker 2>I actually I wasn't gonna do it, and then they

0:11:56.320 --> 0:12:00.319
<v Speaker 2>like needed somebody and people were asking me to do it,

0:12:00.360 --> 0:12:02.760
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, Okay, I guess I'll do it.

0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:07.120
<v Speaker 1>So a little forced, yeah, but honestly, I like, I

0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:09.400
<v Speaker 1>think that's kind of how I did it too.

0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:10.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:12:10.320 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 1>I can't see me like just volunteering on it and

0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:14.600
<v Speaker 1>it kept having more responsibility.

0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:17.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think. Do you know what I think is

0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:22.360
<v Speaker 2>the hardest job on exec is risk chair? Oh my god,

0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:24.079
<v Speaker 2>I know that's.

0:12:23.920 --> 0:12:25.960
<v Speaker 3>Where you I think from what I remember my son

0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:27.720
<v Speaker 3>because I think he did. Don't you sit outside of

0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:29.000
<v Speaker 3>parties for boy?

0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:30.720
<v Speaker 2>Is that what that is? And you can't kind of

0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:34.000
<v Speaker 2>you're just like you're in charge of like the girls

0:12:34.040 --> 0:12:37.480
<v Speaker 2>at your sorority. So if someone like is in like trouble,

0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:40.040
<v Speaker 2>or if someone like drinks too much, if something like

0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:43.400
<v Speaker 2>that happens, like you're the one, like people are always

0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:46.319
<v Speaker 2>like able to call kind of and at like pref

0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:50.440
<v Speaker 2>and like formals, you're in charge of like being the

0:12:50.480 --> 0:12:51.120
<v Speaker 2>one kind.

0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:53.959
<v Speaker 1>Of you have to be sober, Yeah, yeah, your risk chair.

0:12:54.080 --> 0:12:58.240
<v Speaker 1>You have to be sober at these events. And I mean,

0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:02.640
<v Speaker 1>of course, you know times maybe they'll sneak a drink

0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:08.400
<v Speaker 1>or too, I think, and you're always the bad guy.

0:13:08.720 --> 0:13:10.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're always the bad guy. That's why I think

0:13:10.640 --> 0:13:14.480
<v Speaker 2>it's the hardest like one to be because you always

0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:16.560
<v Speaker 2>have to be like keeping ever.

0:13:16.760 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 3>Only remember that for my son, like he'd be on

0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:22.080
<v Speaker 3>a cell phone like outside whatever party, Like this sucks.

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:23.520
<v Speaker 3>I don't know why I volunteered for this.

0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:27.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean because he probably had a monitor who was

0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:28.800
<v Speaker 1>coming in and out of the frat.

0:13:29.320 --> 0:13:32.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah yeah, yeah.

0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:33.720
<v Speaker 1>It's not a fun not a fun job.

0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:37.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah right, So any other lingo you guys, I mean,

0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:38.559
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure we're gonna.

0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Come up with dorm storming dorms, which this is like interesting,

0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:48.719
<v Speaker 1>but like I don't think this was a part of

0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:52.960
<v Speaker 1>like my recruitment process. I think it was just the

0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 1>normal thing to do when you were a freshman. So

0:13:57.040 --> 0:14:03.120
<v Speaker 1>apparently dorm storming is it's basically going from door to

0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:07.640
<v Speaker 1>door in your dorm or residence halls to basically like

0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:10.679
<v Speaker 1>interact with the people on your whole, like on your

0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:11.320
<v Speaker 1>whole and.

0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:11.719
<v Speaker 2>Just like.

0:14:13.840 --> 0:14:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Kind of recruit them for recruitment, But I don't think

0:14:17.840 --> 0:14:21.080
<v Speaker 1>anyone ever did that. Like I think it was mainly

0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:25.880
<v Speaker 1>like for us going into my freshman year, it was normal.

0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Like I remember I was setting up my dorm room

0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:31.920
<v Speaker 1>freshman year and one of my good friends was a

0:14:32.040 --> 0:14:34.440
<v Speaker 1>cheerleader at Rutgers, and she like just walked into my

0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:37.280
<v Speaker 1>dorm and was like, hey, so, like I'm a cheerleader

0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:39.200
<v Speaker 1>here at Rutgers and was like so kiddy, And I

0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:42.680
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh my god, what is going on? But

0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:46.240
<v Speaker 1>she's been she was like at Rutgers all summer because

0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:50.280
<v Speaker 1>she was training and like practicing for the cheer team.

0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:54.960
<v Speaker 1>So she was like so excited when we all moved

0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:57.400
<v Speaker 1>in because she's like, I've been so lonely all summer,

0:14:57.480 --> 0:15:00.320
<v Speaker 1>Like I'm so excited to meet new friends. And I

0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:02.280
<v Speaker 1>think it was just the normal thing to do as

0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:05.160
<v Speaker 1>a freshman, just kind of knock on everyone's door, introduce

0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:10.720
<v Speaker 1>yourself and kind of get to know people just going

0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:12.840
<v Speaker 1>into school. I don't think it really had anything to

0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:16.400
<v Speaker 1>do necessarily with recruitment. What do you guys think, I

0:15:16.440 --> 0:15:20.040
<v Speaker 1>honestly have never heard of that before. But but you

0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:22.840
<v Speaker 1>did the same thing right on when you were a freshman.

0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:26.200
<v Speaker 1>You kind of went to people's doors, introduced yourself, made

0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:27.960
<v Speaker 1>the friends of people on your whole one.

0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:32.720
<v Speaker 2>Hundred percent, and we kept our like dorm door always opened,

0:15:32.720 --> 0:15:35.840
<v Speaker 2>Me and my roommate Christy. It's actually funny. Thor, my

0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:38.640
<v Speaker 2>boyfriend was my next door neighbor in the dorm.

0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:42.720
<v Speaker 1>That's so funny, and so you probably met him by

0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:44.600
<v Speaker 1>watch your boyfriend's name door.

0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:48.840
<v Speaker 3>I loved Daisy and Thor. That's like its own episode.

0:15:48.920 --> 0:15:49.960
<v Speaker 3>We're gonna talk about that.

0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:51.840
<v Speaker 2>I was like, it was funny when we were moving

0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:55.000
<v Speaker 2>in together because people were like, oh, how is it

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:57.320
<v Speaker 2>like moving in together? And I was like, well, you

0:15:57.360 --> 0:16:00.160
<v Speaker 2>know when I was nineteen. He definitely saw me at

0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:04.160
<v Speaker 2>my worst and my best in the dorm room next door.

0:16:04.360 --> 0:16:06.560
<v Speaker 2>So I was like, I don't think I can be

0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:08.200
<v Speaker 2>most much worse than that.

0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:10.880
<v Speaker 1>He saw it all.

0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:16.200
<v Speaker 3>What about a suicide bid that was a risky thing.

0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:20.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, So that's like when you only I mean

0:16:21.040 --> 0:16:24.040
<v Speaker 2>from my knowledge because I remember a roguam like telling

0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:26.920
<v Speaker 2>us not to do this. It's when you only put

0:16:26.960 --> 0:16:29.640
<v Speaker 2>like one sorority. So say you're on pref preface is

0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:33.320
<v Speaker 2>the last night before you go to get your bid

0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:36.360
<v Speaker 2>and you have two sororities and I didn't want one

0:16:36.440 --> 0:16:39.000
<v Speaker 2>at all, but I wanted the other one, and I

0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:42.880
<v Speaker 2>only put like Alpha FY and I didn't put anything else.

0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:45.720
<v Speaker 3>And they know that then that they know that you're

0:16:45.880 --> 0:16:47.120
<v Speaker 3>like yeah, all.

0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:51.040
<v Speaker 1>In yes, because then if you only put down one

0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:54.640
<v Speaker 1>like during like on PREF day, like after you go

0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:58.040
<v Speaker 1>to the voting room and you kind of rank which

0:16:58.080 --> 0:17:01.000
<v Speaker 1>sorority you want from great is to lease? So one

0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:06.159
<v Speaker 1>two three and or is it two for PREF or

0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:06.680
<v Speaker 1>is it three?

0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:11.600
<v Speaker 2>Do you guys remember you mine was two the only.

0:17:11.440 --> 0:17:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Reason, so okay, so then it probably is, oh yeah,

0:17:14.040 --> 0:17:19.840
<v Speaker 1>because I prefed I think GFI and ZATA, so I yeah,

0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:23.520
<v Speaker 1>I think it is maybe two. And then if you

0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:28.840
<v Speaker 1>only put one sorority down and that sorority ended up

0:17:28.880 --> 0:17:33.359
<v Speaker 1>not choosing you, then you you get into nothing. So

0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:36.320
<v Speaker 1>that's why it's called suicide bid, because you could potentially

0:17:36.440 --> 0:17:39.280
<v Speaker 1>risk not getting into a sorority at all. So you

0:17:39.400 --> 0:17:42.000
<v Speaker 1>just went through this whole process and then you could

0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:43.600
<v Speaker 1>essentially like end up with nothing.

0:17:44.560 --> 0:17:47.680
<v Speaker 2>And I think it's because the sorority, I don't think

0:17:47.720 --> 0:17:51.840
<v Speaker 2>they necessarily know, but Panolynic knows. Because Panolymic, it's like

0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:53.919
<v Speaker 2>the sorority will put their bid in for you and

0:17:53.960 --> 0:17:56.879
<v Speaker 2>then you put what you want in and then it

0:17:56.960 --> 0:17:59.800
<v Speaker 2>kind of like matches up that way. But Panelmtic I

0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:04.159
<v Speaker 2>think hates it when you do just one. So I

0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:06.919
<v Speaker 2>think that that's part of the reason why too.

0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't know.

0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:13.720
<v Speaker 2>It's like I don't know how to extend. It's like

0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:18.960
<v Speaker 2>so much. I'm like thinking back to that time, I'm like, whoa, imagine,

0:18:19.000 --> 0:18:21.720
<v Speaker 2>imagine And I think, probably, Daisy, it was better that

0:18:21.760 --> 0:18:26.000
<v Speaker 2>you didn't know anything going in every way. Honestly, yeah,

0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:28.400
<v Speaker 2>I think I would have been like losing my mind

0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:31.600
<v Speaker 2>a little bit. But also I think San Diego State

0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:36.640
<v Speaker 2>like is not as intense at all as like other schools.

0:18:37.760 --> 0:18:39.520
<v Speaker 2>So I mean at first when I first went in,

0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:42.840
<v Speaker 2>I was like what am I doing? And then I

0:18:42.880 --> 0:18:44.840
<v Speaker 2>suck with it because my roommate and like, I'm so

0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:46.960
<v Speaker 2>happy I did. I ended up having the time of

0:18:47.000 --> 0:19:01.960
<v Speaker 2>my life. Let's in the collar, hi, Grace.

0:19:02.560 --> 0:19:08.200
<v Speaker 8>Another interesting element is I have a younger two younger sisters.

0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:11.760
<v Speaker 8>One of them went through Rush two years later while

0:19:11.800 --> 0:19:14.679
<v Speaker 8>I was at school, and one is going through rush

0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:19.520
<v Speaker 8>right now. But the interesting thing is that my sorority

0:19:19.840 --> 0:19:21.880
<v Speaker 8>actually dropped both of.

0:19:21.800 --> 0:19:27.239
<v Speaker 1>Them in the first You actually just reminded me of

0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:30.600
<v Speaker 1>something that I was gonna say to you that during COVID, though,

0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:35.200
<v Speaker 1>that was also of something that happened very often they

0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:38.919
<v Speaker 1>screwed up, kind of like the legacy you know of

0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:42.640
<v Speaker 1>a sister when, because it doesn't matter across all boards,

0:19:42.720 --> 0:19:44.960
<v Speaker 1>say your sister didn't even go to the same college

0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:49.120
<v Speaker 1>that you went to, she should always have that legacy

0:19:49.320 --> 0:19:54.639
<v Speaker 1>of getting into that sorority wherever. So they really screwed

0:19:54.640 --> 0:19:57.679
<v Speaker 1>that up. I know for a fact COVID during COVID

0:19:57.760 --> 0:20:01.720
<v Speaker 1>and not during COVID. It seems to be always a mistake.

0:20:02.560 --> 0:20:06.000
<v Speaker 7>But wow, that would have been interesting somehow.

0:20:06.400 --> 0:20:08.119
<v Speaker 8>I think that happened at my school too, where it

0:20:08.240 --> 0:20:10.280
<v Speaker 8>just messed up the way that they did things to

0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:14.080
<v Speaker 8>where legacy really was not as important as it may

0:20:14.119 --> 0:20:18.440
<v Speaker 8>have used to them. And that is something that really

0:20:18.480 --> 0:20:19.080
<v Speaker 8>put me off.

0:20:19.160 --> 0:20:20.880
<v Speaker 2>And just that's true.

0:20:21.320 --> 0:20:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Contact your sorority after.

0:20:24.160 --> 0:20:29.520
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I did, and they had zero good excuse for it.

0:20:29.600 --> 0:20:31.560
<v Speaker 7>They were like, oh, it must have just slipped through

0:20:31.560 --> 0:20:32.080
<v Speaker 7>the cracks.

0:20:32.160 --> 0:20:34.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you guys, where do when they vote now? Like,

0:20:34.960 --> 0:20:37.640
<v Speaker 3>because that would have never happened back in the day.

0:20:39.200 --> 0:20:41.600
<v Speaker 3>A sister forget it in a way. But that was

0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:43.520
<v Speaker 3>also a time where you everybody will put their heads

0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:47.399
<v Speaker 3>down and you would like raise your hand. Like it

0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:49.360
<v Speaker 3>wasn't like social like you can vote now, is there

0:20:49.359 --> 0:20:52.359
<v Speaker 3>like an app that you can vote on? So like

0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:53.639
<v Speaker 3>it's so anonymous.

0:20:53.840 --> 0:20:55.919
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, that's what the US in ours as you like

0:20:56.000 --> 0:20:58.359
<v Speaker 8>rank people through an app, and a lot more of

0:20:58.400 --> 0:20:59.680
<v Speaker 8>it is done through technology.

0:20:59.720 --> 0:21:02.320
<v Speaker 7>So maybe that's how people kind of slipped through the crocs.

0:21:02.359 --> 0:21:05.280
<v Speaker 1>But what what was that app called I forget.

0:21:05.320 --> 0:21:08.840
<v Speaker 2>Not remember for the life of me, But it was.

0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:12.159
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, it was like a whole system.

0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:15.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah no, I just there was that would not that

0:21:15.440 --> 0:21:19.800
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't have happened. I don't think when I went on paper, Yeah, yeah,

0:21:19.800 --> 0:21:23.000
<v Speaker 3>when I went in, it was a three computer. We

0:21:23.040 --> 0:21:25.160
<v Speaker 3>had three Three of my best friends were already in

0:21:25.280 --> 0:21:29.639
<v Speaker 3>a FI because I was a transfer student, and it

0:21:29.720 --> 0:21:31.359
<v Speaker 3>was just nobody was going to go I mean, there

0:21:31.359 --> 0:21:34.320
<v Speaker 3>were three of them, so nobody was going to give them,

0:21:34.440 --> 0:21:36.800
<v Speaker 3>you know, any shit. So it was kind of like

0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:41.480
<v Speaker 3>a shoeing. But I but even like that, like if

0:21:41.480 --> 0:21:42.879
<v Speaker 3>you had a mother that was a FI you were

0:21:42.880 --> 0:21:43.360
<v Speaker 3>getting in.

0:21:45.240 --> 0:21:45.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:21:45.560 --> 0:21:47.959
<v Speaker 8>See that's an interesting thing too, because I had an

0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:50.040
<v Speaker 8>aunt that went to the same school as me, and

0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:52.919
<v Speaker 8>she was like, oh, you definitely will be able to

0:21:52.960 --> 0:21:56.040
<v Speaker 8>get through and just be a kapa because that's what

0:21:56.080 --> 0:21:59.760
<v Speaker 8>she was. And no, they dropped me both times.

0:22:01.080 --> 0:22:04.520
<v Speaker 2>It would be interesting to like see how Greek life evolves,

0:22:04.600 --> 0:22:07.760
<v Speaker 2>even like in the next like ten years.

0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:10.520
<v Speaker 8>I know, I think so too, because it's weird. I

0:22:10.520 --> 0:22:14.560
<v Speaker 8>feel like I've seen so much change in the years

0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:15.439
<v Speaker 8>that I was in.

0:22:15.320 --> 0:22:18.680
<v Speaker 7>School, and yeah, it seems to be evolving a lot.

0:22:18.800 --> 0:22:22.439
<v Speaker 2>So oh one hundred. I think sororities used.

0:22:22.320 --> 0:22:25.639
<v Speaker 1>To be more fun back in back, probably when you

0:22:25.680 --> 0:22:28.119
<v Speaker 1>were in a sorority jet than they were now, I

0:22:28.119 --> 0:22:29.639
<v Speaker 1>mean than they are now.

0:22:30.080 --> 0:22:31.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was fun, but there was other you know,

0:22:31.440 --> 0:22:34.680
<v Speaker 3>there was other shitty things that happened back then that

0:22:35.240 --> 0:22:40.840
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't happen today, right, I mean, you know, just a

0:22:40.840 --> 0:22:43.320
<v Speaker 3>lot of stuff like the mixing with the frats and

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:46.359
<v Speaker 3>you know, getting called and like standing in front of

0:22:46.359 --> 0:22:49.280
<v Speaker 3>the house like when you got your bid and then

0:22:49.280 --> 0:22:51.400
<v Speaker 3>I think I told you guys about this couple episodes ago,

0:22:51.400 --> 0:22:53.600
<v Speaker 3>but like all the boys would show up and like pick,

0:22:53.920 --> 0:22:55.480
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, there was a bunch of just yeah,

0:22:55.520 --> 0:22:58.080
<v Speaker 3>that's crazy, like just in case you had self esteem

0:22:58.119 --> 0:23:01.399
<v Speaker 3>for a minute, because you got in like next the

0:23:01.440 --> 0:23:03.720
<v Speaker 3>next minute, you're the only one without Maybe this is

0:23:03.760 --> 0:23:08.560
<v Speaker 3>just my experience without a date. I mean that was right,

0:23:08.560 --> 0:23:10.840
<v Speaker 3>but yes, but I mean it was now we didn't

0:23:10.880 --> 0:23:12.760
<v Speaker 3>have to contend with a lot of the stuff. I

0:23:12.840 --> 0:23:14.760
<v Speaker 3>don't even know how you guys do it now. It's

0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:17.600
<v Speaker 3>a lot, especially looking at these schools in the South

0:23:17.800 --> 0:23:22.400
<v Speaker 3>and what's going on. It's absolutely over the top crazy, right, Yeah, and.

0:23:22.400 --> 0:23:25.399
<v Speaker 8>That's pretty insane and just I think the social media

0:23:25.480 --> 0:23:27.119
<v Speaker 8>elements crazy.

0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:29.640
<v Speaker 1>If you don't mind me asking what school was.

0:23:29.600 --> 0:23:34.040
<v Speaker 7>It, I don't think. I don't think I want to say.

0:23:34.080 --> 0:23:39.159
<v Speaker 1>Okay, no problem, but you were you said it was

0:23:39.200 --> 0:23:42.000
<v Speaker 1>down south though, Yeah, so it was really intense.

0:23:42.280 --> 0:23:47.720
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, big Texas schools and and so just very intense.

0:23:48.000 --> 0:23:51.680
<v Speaker 8>And the moms even are very intense. The whole ordeal.

0:23:54.520 --> 0:23:58.560
<v Speaker 8>It's just I don't know, to a certain extent, I

0:23:58.680 --> 0:24:00.600
<v Speaker 8>liked it, and I gained a lot of great friends

0:24:00.640 --> 0:24:04.640
<v Speaker 8>out of it, but looking back, there's so much superficialness

0:24:04.800 --> 0:24:07.000
<v Speaker 8>to the whole thing that just makes me feel a

0:24:07.040 --> 0:24:07.760
<v Speaker 8>little bit icky.

0:24:10.119 --> 0:24:12.160
<v Speaker 1>That's why I feel like it used to be way

0:24:12.160 --> 0:24:14.600
<v Speaker 1>more authentic than what it is now.

0:24:15.359 --> 0:24:16.640
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, definitely, it.

0:24:16.640 --> 0:24:20.200
<v Speaker 3>Was always superficial though, Guys. There was always a level

0:24:20.240 --> 0:24:21.080
<v Speaker 3>of that I think.

0:24:21.280 --> 0:24:23.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean, yeah, I feel like it is, and then

0:24:23.320 --> 0:24:25.920
<v Speaker 2>you got to get like past that and find your

0:24:25.960 --> 0:24:27.600
<v Speaker 2>like good friends.

0:24:29.560 --> 0:24:33.240
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, it's definitely the core of all of it. Once

0:24:33.280 --> 0:24:36.080
<v Speaker 8>you find like your friends from it, that's what you meant.

0:24:36.160 --> 0:24:39.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so your sister and your cousin aren't in it

0:24:39.920 --> 0:24:44.240
<v Speaker 1>right now. I remember when my sisters were rushing. I

0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:48.400
<v Speaker 1>was so nervous for them. So you probably feel the pressure.

0:24:49.520 --> 0:24:52.159
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I am feeling the pressure a little bit. I

0:24:52.240 --> 0:24:55.239
<v Speaker 7>mostly just feel for them so much because I know

0:24:55.359 --> 0:24:57.480
<v Speaker 7>how it feels to go through the process.

0:24:57.000 --> 0:24:59.159
<v Speaker 8>And have it go really poorly or have it go

0:24:59.280 --> 0:25:02.359
<v Speaker 8>really well. Even when it is going well, it's not

0:25:02.880 --> 0:25:05.679
<v Speaker 8>a cake walk like. It still is intense and it

0:25:05.680 --> 0:25:09.720
<v Speaker 8>brings up so much emotion. So they have both been

0:25:09.880 --> 0:25:14.200
<v Speaker 8>calling me constantly in tears, are so happy, and it's

0:25:14.800 --> 0:25:17.639
<v Speaker 8>such a rollercoaster, you know, And so I'm trying to

0:25:17.800 --> 0:25:20.359
<v Speaker 8>support them through the best I can, and luckily I

0:25:20.400 --> 0:25:25.040
<v Speaker 8>can empathize. So that's definitely something that's been really cool

0:25:25.080 --> 0:25:28.639
<v Speaker 8>throughout the whole process. But mostly I'm just excited for

0:25:28.720 --> 0:25:31.359
<v Speaker 8>them to be done with it and start school and

0:25:31.520 --> 0:25:35.440
<v Speaker 8>get to actually feel the benefit of the crazy process

0:25:35.560 --> 0:25:39.840
<v Speaker 8>that they've been through. But one of them, my sister,

0:25:40.080 --> 0:25:45.120
<v Speaker 8>it's going really well for she's gotten maybe not all

0:25:45.200 --> 0:25:47.080
<v Speaker 8>the houses back, but a lot of the.

0:25:47.040 --> 0:25:48.120
<v Speaker 7>Ones that she likes.

0:25:48.600 --> 0:25:51.640
<v Speaker 8>And then unfortunately my cousin, it's a little bit more

0:25:51.680 --> 0:25:52.159
<v Speaker 8>touch and go.

0:25:52.480 --> 0:25:54.880
<v Speaker 7>She's not sure about the houses that she had back.

0:25:55.359 --> 0:25:59.000
<v Speaker 8>Originally she got all I think it was ten that

0:25:59.040 --> 0:26:01.840
<v Speaker 8>you could get in the first she got ten backs,

0:26:01.880 --> 0:26:03.959
<v Speaker 8>she was kind of on top of the world. And

0:26:04.000 --> 0:26:08.000
<v Speaker 8>then actually this morning she found out that she got

0:26:08.080 --> 0:26:10.719
<v Speaker 8>I think only three out of six back for the

0:26:10.760 --> 0:26:12.800
<v Speaker 8>next round. So I know that that's been kind of

0:26:12.800 --> 0:26:13.400
<v Speaker 8>hard on her.

0:26:13.720 --> 0:26:15.720
<v Speaker 1>It's crazy that drop that can happen.

0:26:15.800 --> 0:26:19.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know it's.

0:26:19.480 --> 0:26:23.120
<v Speaker 7>Because, I mean, getting ten back that's pretty rare. It's

0:26:23.119 --> 0:26:24.280
<v Speaker 7>a big deal.

0:26:24.600 --> 0:26:28.760
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, So to go from ten to three, I mean,

0:26:30.160 --> 0:26:33.640
<v Speaker 8>my heart just hurts like that never feels good, even if.

0:26:33.560 --> 0:26:36.160
<v Speaker 3>She's so glad she has you though, what.

0:26:36.240 --> 0:26:39.080
<v Speaker 8>I'm really glad that I can help them through it

0:26:39.080 --> 0:26:41.080
<v Speaker 8>because I know that when I was going through the process,

0:26:41.119 --> 0:26:44.000
<v Speaker 8>I really wish that I had more people that I could.

0:26:43.880 --> 0:26:44.560
<v Speaker 2>Kind of lean on.

0:26:44.640 --> 0:26:47.040
<v Speaker 7>Who had gone through it and understood.

0:26:46.640 --> 0:26:48.320
<v Speaker 3>And maybe there is something to be said for these

0:26:48.320 --> 0:26:52.520
<v Speaker 3>sorority coaches. Maybe there is, like, you know, something to

0:26:52.600 --> 0:26:57.840
<v Speaker 3>have somebody who actually does it professionally and understands what

0:26:57.880 --> 0:26:59.800
<v Speaker 3>can happen at any given moment and can kind of

0:26:59.800 --> 0:27:03.200
<v Speaker 3>coach you, you know, through it a little bit and help

0:27:03.240 --> 0:27:05.240
<v Speaker 3>out just the whole the emotions of it all.

0:27:06.200 --> 0:27:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Maybe if it's a nice sorority coach, they're looking out

0:27:09.520 --> 0:27:12.399
<v Speaker 1>for your mental health and not maybe what color you

0:27:12.400 --> 0:27:16.720
<v Speaker 1>should change your hair. I mean, at least you went

0:27:16.760 --> 0:27:20.240
<v Speaker 1>through kind of I guess both experiences grace, like you

0:27:20.320 --> 0:27:23.959
<v Speaker 1>had one that wasn't so great and one that obviously

0:27:24.000 --> 0:27:27.520
<v Speaker 1>it got better at the end. So I feel like

0:27:27.520 --> 0:27:30.000
<v Speaker 1>that definitely, you know, is helping your cousin out right now,

0:27:30.080 --> 0:27:32.880
<v Speaker 1>because even if things don't go as planned for her

0:27:32.960 --> 0:27:35.119
<v Speaker 1>right now, just tell her to try again.

0:27:35.720 --> 0:27:37.920
<v Speaker 8>M M. I know, I think that could be good.

0:27:38.000 --> 0:27:42.000
<v Speaker 8>And they have Cob and all of that, so I

0:27:42.080 --> 0:27:44.840
<v Speaker 8>know that she'll be fine and if it's meant to be,

0:27:44.960 --> 0:27:48.680
<v Speaker 8>she'll find that home eventually, and who knows even through

0:27:48.680 --> 0:27:49.880
<v Speaker 8>Oh my god, yes.

0:27:49.880 --> 0:27:54.520
<v Speaker 1>The COB is you just brought up another sorority wit good.

0:27:55.000 --> 0:27:56.320
<v Speaker 2>I said, I don't know what it is.

0:27:56.880 --> 0:28:00.160
<v Speaker 7>So continuous open bidding, right, yeah.

0:28:00.440 --> 0:28:04.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, like you basically just kind of get accepted in.

0:28:05.240 --> 0:28:05.440
<v Speaker 8>Right.

0:28:05.760 --> 0:28:09.199
<v Speaker 1>It's if you're it's after rush and they have a

0:28:09.280 --> 0:28:12.600
<v Speaker 1>couple of girls that they can bring in if they want,

0:28:13.240 --> 0:28:16.760
<v Speaker 1>but typically it happens this semester after Yeah.

0:28:16.800 --> 0:28:19.240
<v Speaker 8>I think it's if the sorority doesn't meet their quota

0:28:19.880 --> 0:28:22.520
<v Speaker 8>or if some people like end up accepting a bid

0:28:22.560 --> 0:28:25.919
<v Speaker 8>but then not going to the situation, they'll have extra

0:28:26.040 --> 0:28:30.399
<v Speaker 8>spots and they'll kind of like just yeah, it's a

0:28:30.480 --> 0:28:32.560
<v Speaker 8>much chiller process, so kind of just.

0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:34.359
<v Speaker 1>Be like they don't have to do anything. They just

0:28:34.480 --> 0:28:35.439
<v Speaker 1>walk in the door.

0:28:36.640 --> 0:28:38.960
<v Speaker 7>You know, she wants to be a theater or whatever,

0:28:39.040 --> 0:28:40.240
<v Speaker 7>and they're like welcome.

0:28:40.960 --> 0:28:41.840
<v Speaker 3>What does it stand for?

0:28:41.920 --> 0:28:47.520
<v Speaker 7>So you'll be continuous, got it? So that's always a

0:28:47.560 --> 0:28:49.680
<v Speaker 7>good option too. I wish I could have done.

0:28:49.720 --> 0:28:50.600
<v Speaker 2>That would have been so much.

0:28:52.840 --> 0:28:56.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, I hope your cousins experience only goes up

0:28:56.560 --> 0:29:07.680
<v Speaker 1>from here, and I'm happy that your sister yes doing great.

0:29:14.920 --> 0:29:18.480
<v Speaker 3>Wow, Okay, you guys. I feel for her obviously. I

0:29:18.520 --> 0:29:22.880
<v Speaker 3>feel for her cousin and her sister, But to be

0:29:22.920 --> 0:29:26.120
<v Speaker 3>outside of it and somebody you love is going through it.

0:29:26.200 --> 0:29:27.920
<v Speaker 3>And again I mean I had a daughter go through it,

0:29:27.960 --> 0:29:35.000
<v Speaker 3>and it's a different experience. It's almost harder.

0:29:34.800 --> 0:29:35.240
<v Speaker 2>I think.

0:29:36.680 --> 0:29:41.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, it's just knowing that, like I wanted

0:29:41.240 --> 0:29:44.000
<v Speaker 3>anybody that was going to reject my daughter Rachel, they

0:29:44.000 --> 0:29:46.520
<v Speaker 3>had to die a slow and painful death. It's still

0:29:46.600 --> 0:29:49.800
<v Speaker 3>like that, like she doesn't get a job, or she

0:29:49.840 --> 0:29:52.400
<v Speaker 3>doesn't get the boy. That has to No, it has

0:29:52.400 --> 0:29:54.600
<v Speaker 3>to be slow and painful. That person is dead, must

0:29:54.640 --> 0:29:56.800
<v Speaker 3>be wiped off the map. So like you know, is

0:29:56.840 --> 0:29:58.240
<v Speaker 3>a mom of it or cut like you want the

0:29:58.280 --> 0:30:00.960
<v Speaker 3>whole sorority, especially if it's your sorority. Imagine your own

0:30:00.960 --> 0:30:02.520
<v Speaker 3>sorty is rejecting your sister.

0:30:03.000 --> 0:30:04.560
<v Speaker 2>No so much?

0:30:04.640 --> 0:30:05.120
<v Speaker 4>No good?

0:30:05.360 --> 0:30:09.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah No, I definitely believe that it's harder as a

0:30:09.880 --> 0:30:12.640
<v Speaker 2>mom watching it because I even I think about my

0:30:12.760 --> 0:30:14.880
<v Speaker 2>mom and like anything I've gone through in my life.

0:30:14.960 --> 0:30:18.160
<v Speaker 2>I remember one time she told me, she said, anything

0:30:18.200 --> 0:30:22.640
<v Speaker 2>that I go through is ten times harder than anything

0:30:22.680 --> 0:30:25.200
<v Speaker 2>she's ever gone through, like for her like watching and

0:30:25.240 --> 0:30:27.520
<v Speaker 2>having to like watch me go through it if I'm

0:30:27.600 --> 0:30:29.920
<v Speaker 2>like going through something hard. So I totally believe that.

0:30:30.480 --> 0:30:33.400
<v Speaker 2>And my little sister too, someone does her wrong.

0:30:33.520 --> 0:30:37.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, yeah, I want a pound.

0:30:38.000 --> 0:30:39.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you guys see that.

0:30:39.480 --> 0:30:42.840
<v Speaker 3>There's a TikTok right now of this mom who has

0:30:43.680 --> 0:30:46.520
<v Speaker 3>life three sixty or whatever it is. So she's following

0:30:46.520 --> 0:30:49.720
<v Speaker 3>her daughter through the process. She's like, Okay, now she's

0:30:49.760 --> 0:30:52.520
<v Speaker 3>at I don't know. Now she's at theta. Now she's

0:30:52.720 --> 0:30:54.120
<v Speaker 3>oh my god, why did she stay in theata for

0:30:54.120 --> 0:30:55.280
<v Speaker 3>so long? Why didn't she walk out?

0:30:55.600 --> 0:30:59.120
<v Speaker 1>You guys, No, it's it's a little girl.

0:30:59.840 --> 0:31:00.360
<v Speaker 2>I can't.

0:31:00.480 --> 0:31:03.880
<v Speaker 3>I feel like I might have done that if it

0:31:03.920 --> 0:31:07.520
<v Speaker 3>was if it wasn't all on zoom. But she's like

0:31:07.560 --> 0:31:10.160
<v Speaker 3>freaking out, like, wait a second, wait a second, why

0:31:10.200 --> 0:31:12.320
<v Speaker 3>is she out on the porch. Why isn't she going in?

0:31:12.640 --> 0:31:14.840
<v Speaker 3>She taught like just the whole thing is so.

0:31:15.240 --> 0:31:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Hyper and honestly, yeah, yeah, I mean I think right now, obviously,

0:31:20.480 --> 0:31:24.040
<v Speaker 1>even for Grace and her cousin and her sister, I know,

0:31:24.160 --> 0:31:27.920
<v Speaker 1>it feels like the end of the world. But after

0:31:28.080 --> 0:31:32.600
<v Speaker 1>college or even after your freshman year, literally it doesn't

0:31:32.640 --> 0:31:33.240
<v Speaker 1>even matter.

0:31:33.440 --> 0:31:37.240
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't matter. It's like it's such That's why I

0:31:37.280 --> 0:31:39.040
<v Speaker 2>hate how like it's it's like.

0:31:39.000 --> 0:31:42.240
<v Speaker 1>A fever dream in yeah, but then it goes away

0:31:42.280 --> 0:31:43.040
<v Speaker 1>no matter.

0:31:42.840 --> 0:31:45.080
<v Speaker 2>What you are going to be okay, like if you're

0:31:45.120 --> 0:31:47.680
<v Speaker 2>in a sorority, if you're not in a sorority, you're

0:31:47.720 --> 0:31:49.920
<v Speaker 2>going to be fine, Like everything is going to be amazing.

0:31:50.480 --> 0:31:52.760
<v Speaker 2>But it's like in that moment for some people.

0:31:53.360 --> 0:31:56.120
<v Speaker 1>So many of my friends didn't rush, some of them

0:31:56.160 --> 0:31:59.120
<v Speaker 1>got dropped from everything, some of them didn't have the GPI.

0:32:00.040 --> 0:32:03.080
<v Speaker 1>And you know a lot of my friends, you wouldn't

0:32:03.120 --> 0:32:07.480
<v Speaker 1>expect them to get dropped either. Pretty girls, you wouldn't.

0:32:07.600 --> 0:32:11.640
<v Speaker 1>You wouldn't think that they would. But it's also hard

0:32:11.760 --> 0:32:17.040
<v Speaker 1>if you get blacklisted or if you have a certain

0:32:17.080 --> 0:32:18.680
<v Speaker 1>reputation from.

0:32:18.560 --> 0:32:20.480
<v Speaker 3>I want to talk about that on one of our episodes,

0:32:20.520 --> 0:32:24.080
<v Speaker 3>guys about getting get blacklisted and that what that's about.

0:32:24.360 --> 0:32:27.720
<v Speaker 1>Definitely, Well, I think it's a lot easier for girls

0:32:27.760 --> 0:32:31.880
<v Speaker 1>to get blacklisted if they're rushing their sophomore year or

0:32:31.920 --> 0:32:36.600
<v Speaker 1>if they're a transfer, because then it allows obviously the

0:32:36.600 --> 0:32:39.360
<v Speaker 1>sororities to get to know you and look at you

0:32:39.760 --> 0:32:43.120
<v Speaker 1>while you're out, and if they kind of don't like

0:32:43.200 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 1>what they see, then you could get blacklisted. Or if

0:32:47.080 --> 0:32:51.840
<v Speaker 1>you're screwing a sorority sister's boyfriend or this or that,

0:32:52.400 --> 0:32:55.480
<v Speaker 1>And that's why this one girl got blacklisted because she

0:32:55.840 --> 0:32:59.600
<v Speaker 1>was she didn't know, and that's the hard part as

0:32:59.600 --> 0:33:03.280
<v Speaker 1>a fresh you don't know these frat boys and who

0:33:03.280 --> 0:33:08.320
<v Speaker 1>they're dating and all the ties and literally I felt

0:33:08.360 --> 0:33:11.280
<v Speaker 1>so bad. But my one friend in college, she got

0:33:11.280 --> 0:33:18.480
<v Speaker 1>blacklisted and she couldn't rush because she ended up somebody

0:33:18.680 --> 0:33:24.000
<v Speaker 1>having sex with someone's boyfriend and she had no idea.

0:33:24.200 --> 0:33:26.400
<v Speaker 3>The girls and I could be I'm just thinking about

0:33:26.400 --> 0:33:28.600
<v Speaker 3>it delaware, Like I don't think that they were allowed

0:33:29.080 --> 0:33:32.560
<v Speaker 3>as freshmen to go to parties like with frat boys,

0:33:32.680 --> 0:33:37.440
<v Speaker 3>because they're very thing. Once you were in, you couldn't.

0:33:37.960 --> 0:33:41.440
<v Speaker 1>But what if you didn't rush your freshman year?

0:33:41.600 --> 0:33:42.880
<v Speaker 3>Give a shit and you went, But if you were

0:33:42.960 --> 0:33:44.600
<v Speaker 3>rushing or in a sorority.

0:33:44.400 --> 0:33:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Then you weren't allowed.

0:33:45.680 --> 0:33:47.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:33:47.200 --> 0:33:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, I don't know if I was supposed to or not.

0:33:51.360 --> 0:33:54.240
<v Speaker 1>We weren't allowed to go out like during the rush process,

0:33:54.400 --> 0:33:59.440
<v Speaker 1>but I definitely went out for semester for sure. And

0:33:59.480 --> 0:34:03.640
<v Speaker 1>then yeah, I mean if girls didn't have the GPA

0:34:03.880 --> 0:34:07.080
<v Speaker 1>and weren't allowed to rush freshman year, my friends went

0:34:07.120 --> 0:34:10.120
<v Speaker 1>out and I think you're the craziest your freshman year.

0:34:10.160 --> 0:34:12.520
<v Speaker 1>I could be wrong, Like I feel like that's the worst,

0:34:12.840 --> 0:34:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Like everyone was.

0:34:15.360 --> 0:34:19.120
<v Speaker 2>Ushman year is crazy, honestly though, there's nothing like it.

0:34:19.160 --> 0:34:20.560
<v Speaker 2>Though it's so fun too.

0:34:20.840 --> 0:34:24.520
<v Speaker 1>So that was one of my best year, my freshman year, right,

0:34:25.560 --> 0:34:26.200
<v Speaker 1>my best year.

0:34:26.239 --> 0:34:30.759
<v Speaker 2>It's just everything so new and exciting and scary too.

0:34:30.800 --> 0:34:35.080
<v Speaker 2>But it's like all of that like compiled together, makes

0:34:35.080 --> 0:34:37.959
<v Speaker 2>it great.

0:34:36.719 --> 0:34:38.719
<v Speaker 3>To say she felt bad for anyone that didn't go

0:34:38.760 --> 0:34:43.759
<v Speaker 3>to Delaware. I was like, Rachel, I feel like they're okay,

0:34:45.320 --> 0:34:48.520
<v Speaker 3>They're okay, they're getting through.

0:34:48.600 --> 0:34:49.480
<v Speaker 2>It's funny.

0:34:49.440 --> 0:34:51.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's a great way to feel.

0:34:51.440 --> 0:34:53.600
<v Speaker 2>Not everybody does, Oh my gosh, for sure.

0:34:53.920 --> 0:34:55.840

<v Speaker 3>going to be okay coming from two girls. I love

0:35:01.160 --> 0:35:03.920
<v Speaker 3>being in a sorority, you know, and that you have

0:35:04.400 --> 0:35:06.919
<v Speaker 3>so many friends who didn't work out for in terms

0:35:06.960 --> 0:35:10.640
<v Speaker 3>of whatever getting into the top tier.

0:35:11.239 --> 0:35:14.319
<v Speaker 2>Definitely. Yeah, So anyone listening, if you're going through it,

0:35:14.400 --> 0:35:17.799
