00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 3: And today we're going to be talking about what we

8
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 3: wish we knew before we went into rush. So we're

9
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 3: going to be giving you all the stories all of

10
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 3: us went. All of us were in different sororities, at

11
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 3: different schools and had different Rush experiences. But we all

12
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 3: have a lot of advice to give you for when

13
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,160
Speaker 3: you're going through rush.

14
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,480
Speaker 1: Especially because some people are going through rush this semester. True,

15
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 1: which's be where.

16
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 2: I could do that?

17
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 4: I do feels in the snow?

18
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 2: No, thank you?

19
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 4: I can remember, would you?

20
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:50,959
Speaker 5: No?

21
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 4: I would I.

22
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 3: Went to UCLA and the you know, the latest round.

23
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,959
Speaker 3: It was probably fifty degrees out and I remember being

24
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 3: cold waiting outside. Yeah, but it was also in September

25
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:03,960
Speaker 3: because we do first semester.

26
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,639
Speaker 5: Do you guys all do first semester rush?

27
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 4: Mine's like before school starts? What is your guys?

28
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 3: Is?

29
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: Mine is after it's over the three day weekend.

30
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, mine was always in August. It's insanely hot in Texas.

31
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 6: It's so hot.

32
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,320
Speaker 5: Did you have to go to school early for how

33
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 5: they do thatt ut?

34
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 4: Yes, which I actually really liked.

35
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 6: But I think it's really everyone has a different experience

36
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 6: doing it, like different ways, and people like it for

37
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 6: different reasons, you know, Like I loved it because like

38
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 6: you don't know anyone, so there's no one, like like

39
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 6: you're not rushing what your friends are rushing, Like You're

40
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 6: going whatever you really feel like as you're fit, which

41
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 6: I feel like is nice because like I feel like

42
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 6: if I was second semester, then I would just want

43
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 6: to go the souarty my friends were and it wouldn't

44
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 6: be as much my choice.

45
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 3: I'm torn on this because I feel like it benefits

46
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 3: you know, I went to a huge state school, Like

47
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: I I went to UCLA, and I was from Chicago,

48
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,920
Speaker 3: and I knew nobody at my school, and so I

49
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 3: feel like I didn't have a leg up, you know,

50
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 3: to know and coming in, and.

51
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 4: I felt like.

52
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 3: It gave me a really fair shot that it just

53
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 3: it started right when school started, and like I nobody

54
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 3: knew anyone and nobody like really had a leg up

55
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 3: just going into rush. But I also think USC, the

56
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 3: other school, like big school in LA, they did it

57
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 3: second semester and they were like, I feel like the

58
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 3: girls and sororities at USC were like had so many

59
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 3: different friends across sororities because they did it second semester,

60
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 3: and so they were able to have like your you know,

61
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 3: your first semester friends, but then I'll end up in

62
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 3: different sororities.

63
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: Totally, that's cool since first semester all my friends are

64
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,359
Speaker 1: dg except for like your dorm friends totally are across

65
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: different sororities. Yeah, but yeah, I mean it kind of

66
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: gave you friends immediately rushing first semester.

67
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 2: True, so pros and cons like both.

68
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, It's also interesting how at different schools. I feel

69
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 6: like some schools it's like all sorority girls are friends

70
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 6: with girls and different sororities, and that some schools it's

71
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 6: like you only hang out with the girls and your sorty,

72
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 6: which I've heard is a case that like you dub

73
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 6: like they like don't really but then you know, everyone

74
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 6: tells different things.

75
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

76
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 6: I remember hearing that once and I was like, that's

77
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 6: so interesting because in my school everyone was like meshed

78
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,239
Speaker 6: with girls in different sororities. Yeah, yeah, so I wonder

79
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 6: if that has something to do with the first versus

80
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 6: second semester recruitment.

81
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 5: Probably m hm.

82
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: Anyways, we're here to share a couple of things that

83
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 1: we all wished we knew before going into rush and

84
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: something that I didn't know but to get into the

85
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,119
Speaker 1: sorority I was at at CU Boulder was that you

86
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: did have to have a letter of reck.

87
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 3: You did, yes, because that you see, like they it

88
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 3: was just like those did.

89
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 5: Not matter at all.

90
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: You It didn't matter who wrote it. But if you

91
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: didn't have one, you weren't. Yeah, like you were passed

92
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: up on.

93
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 5: Really.

94
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it.

95
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 3: Could be like your your mom's best friend's cousin's daughter.

96
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyone that was in the sorority beforehand, at any point,

97
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: if you knew them well or not, if they wrote

98
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: you a letter of reck, then you made it past

99
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: the first round. If you didn't, then you didn't.

100
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 6: I don't know if that's how it was at my school.

101
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 6: I do remember, like, like, I feel like I could

102
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,560
Speaker 6: be wrong about this, but I feel like it was

103
00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 6: more like if someone was in the sorority at your school,

104
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 6: it mattered more than like if it was just like

105
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 6: a random person from a different school that was in

106
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:21,800
Speaker 6: your sowarty.

107
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 4: To me, that's how I perceived it.

108
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 6: But I could be wrong there, but I feel like

109
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 6: it would mostly matter if it was like an older

110
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 6: girl who had graduated before, then it means more.

111
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it definitely helps if you knew someone in

112
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 1: the direct sorority or someone that was of that affiliate sorority.

113
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 2: But I think just like maybe my sorority had older rules.

114
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 3: Okay, so we had letters of wreck didn't mean anything,

115
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 3: but we had a different thing that I'm really wondering

116
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 3: if I feel like nobody knows about this when you're

117
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 3: going through rush, but then you see it on the

118
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,599
Speaker 3: other side and it's kind of wild. I don't know

119
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 3: if you guys have this, but and I'm kind of

120
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 3: giving a lot away here, but during work week, we

121
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 3: would have a presentation of I don't even know if

122
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 3: I'm supposed to say this, but here goes. During work week,

123
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 3: we would have a presentation that girls already in our

124
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 3: sorority would be put up a slide show of people

125
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 3: from their hometown that knew that they were coming through

126
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 3: rush and that they really wanted to vouch for and

127
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 3: it would be like a picture of them from their

128
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 3: Instagram and fun facts and this is why she would

129
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 3: be great in our sorority, and these are her amazing traits,

130
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 3: and or on the other end, it would be like

131
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 3: this girl screwed up dating my brother and cheating on

132
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 3: him and we cannot let her in. I know she's

133
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 3: coming in. So I think that's where knowing someone really

134
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 3: plays a part, because they can really vouch for you.

135
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 3: And then you can do something called hometown voting, where

136
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 3: you can give them either the highest rating or the

137
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 3: lowest rating, but you couldn't give anything in between if

138
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 3: you were in a hometown vote someone.

139
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 6: Do you guys think it's important to know someone in

140
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 6: the sorority, Like, do you think you really need to

141
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 6: in order to get brought back?

142
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 1: Well, my sorority's rules for voting was it's automatically no,

143
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,239
Speaker 1: So essentially you were supposed to be dishing out no's

144
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: unless the person wowed you and you thought they deserved to.

145
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 6: Yes.

146
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 5: Oh, it was all or nothing, all.

147
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: Or nothing, and that's why it was helpful to know

148
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: someone in a sorority so that they could tell everyone.

149
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 1: But then again it brings back the rule of you

150
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 1: can't vote for someone unless you bump them, So then

151
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: you had to keep making sure that people were getting

152
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: bumped so they could get the appropriate votes.

153
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 3: Wow, because ours was what were your So that was

154
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 3: your reading scale? Ours was between I think one in

155
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 3: five or and the highest one you either four or

156
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 3: five meant okay this or I want her to be

157
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 3: my little like not just I want her to be

158
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 3: in our sorority. I want her to be my little

159
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 3: my best friend. Three was like I want her to

160
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 3: be in the sorority, and then one was no two

161
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 3: was it was very important, like what each level meant?

162
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 4: Did you guys do a lot of recruiting?

163
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 6: On the other side, like, did you do a lot

164
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 6: of years of like recruiting in your sorority? Because you

165
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 6: know how some people like don't really want to do

166
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 6: it and only do it one year when they're forced too.

167
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 3: Well one of them, I was abroads, but I did too.

168
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 4: Two of them.

169
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, you mean in terms of like the actual recruiting process.

170
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: We were involved all four years. Wow, Like fully involved

171
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: had to be which was nice. But then again, like honestly,

172
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: whoever was on standards that year took full control over

173
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: who was on the hometown's list, who was on the

174
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 1: captain's list.

175
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 4: What is captain's captain's list?

176
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 2: Did you guys not have that?

177
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 4: No, I've never even heard of that.

178
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 2: Your your captain's list is pretty crazy.

179
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: So so that means that you were perfect on paper,

180
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: meaning that you had the grades, you had the letters

181
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: of rex.

182
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 3: Wait, sorry, this means you're talking captain's list. Are P

183
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 3: and ms or.

184
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 1: P and ms on the captain's list that are perfect

185
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: on paper with grades? Because we had to have a

186
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 1: certain GPA, and it was a high gpa really that

187
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: a lot of the younger girls I knew couldn't get

188
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: in from high school because of their gpa?

189
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 5: Wow, can you name what the GPA was?

190
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 4: Did it change every year?

191
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 5: Probably?

192
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 2: I think it was a three four.

193
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 6: I feel like it would change based on like like

194
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 6: at my school, because the GPA would go of how

195
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 6: hard it was to get in, so I feel like

196
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 6: it would go up.

197
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it went up continuously, and I do know that.

198
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,959
Speaker 1: Like one of the coolest girls in our sorority when

199
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: I was a freshman, she got suspended for a semester

200
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 1: because her grades dropped below and she was the coolest

201
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: eight girl of my sorority, like everyone's favorite, and she

202
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:03,959
Speaker 1: got suspended because of her grades.

203
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 3: So this is where I think there's a misconception about

204
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 3: sororities because our sorty too, like had the best GPA

205
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 3: on the row and I would I would argue that

206
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:32,079
Speaker 3: we were some of the best girls and just really cool,

207
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 3: awesome people and we always had the highest GP in

208
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 3: the row and it was usually a three seven, five

209
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 3: or three eight.

210
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 5: And I feel like people think that soorty girls are dumb.

211
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 2: No, not true, Not true.

212
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,839
Speaker 1: You're actually talking to a girl who was on the

213
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: scholars list.

214
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, talking to a scholar.

215
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're talking to a scholar not only for the.

216
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 1: Semester maybe, yeah, pretty insane.

217
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 3: I think I was on the low end of the GPA.

218
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 2: I think I was the one on the brisk Well

219
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 2: you went to what you see?

220
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, so missy over here. Okay, I have another subject

221
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 6: to bring up. What about This isn't necessarily something I

222
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 6: didn't know, but what do you guys, like, what went

223
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 6: on in your head about like your social media? Because

224
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 6: I feel like we're told so many things going into recruitment,

225
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 6: like not being able to follow girls in the sworty

226
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 6: or you should be following girls in the sworty or

227
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 6: what you have posted, like taking down anything of swimsuits alcohol, Like,

228
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 6: did you guys really clean up your social media before

229
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,079
Speaker 6: you went through recruitment.

230
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 2: That's a good question.

231
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: I didn't feel the need to clean mine up. I

232
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: didn't post anything with alcohol in beforehand, because that's kind

233
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 1: of inappropriate in my eyes. Anyways, being a high schooler, Yeah,

234
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 1: in terms of like bathing suit stuff, I would post them,

235
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: but it wasn't anything too crazy.

236
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:56,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, following like people preference.

237
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: If I was the older girl being followed by younger girls,

238
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: I would just see that as like they're just trying

239
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: to get a gauge on what's going on, and I

240
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 1: would just play it cooler. On the other end of

241
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: just like not following people. You can follow the sorority instagrams,

242
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: but like you don't need to heavily stock everyone like

243
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:12,959
Speaker 1: I don't.

244
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 2: There's no for my sorority.

245
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: There was no offline chat of like we were not

246
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: allowed to talk to p and ms and we weren't

247
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: allowed to talk to active members before or during the

248
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: recruitment process. And so I don't think that there was

249
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: a point on our end to kind of like involve

250
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: social media with that.

251
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, I will say that I do think because I mean,

252
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 3: especially just going to a really big school, we were

253
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 3: talking to so many girls, and I do think that

254
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 3: social media matters. I think what your Instagram and that

255
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 3: it's like a representation of you, like if you like

256
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,319
Speaker 3: to sing and you have a video on there, I

257
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 3: think that's great.

258
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 4: I completely agree.

259
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 3: But if it's just like partying, and I think your

260
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 3: Instagram and your profile actually does matter because that's what

261
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 3: not necessarily like that girls are scoping you out beforehand.

262
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 3: I think that at least that wasn't the case with us.

263
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 3: But I think that when you're trying to remember, girl,

264
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 3: oh did I like her?

265
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 5: Did I not?

266
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 3: What was our conversation about? And then you go in

267
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 3: their Instagram, there's nothing. I mean, I guess you're in private.

268
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 6: Some people are because some people are told that they

269
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 6: should go on private beforehand, because then if a girl

270
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 6: follows you, that means something. If not, they can stock

271
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,319
Speaker 6: you anytime. I don't remember what I did. But then

272
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 6: there's also so many girls I remember that I loved

273
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 6: and they followed me even though they're not allowed to

274
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 6: and then I was like, oh my goodness, they're going

275
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 6: to go my sworty. And then they didn't, and so

276
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 6: I'm like, why do you follow me? We have like

277
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 6: a silent day, it's like the day before. So our

278
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 6: last day of recruitment, I want to say, is Friday.

279
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 6: Then Saturday is like no contact, like nothing, like really strict,

280
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 6: like basically like stay in your house like okay, and

281
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 6: I know, partying, no texting anyone, even if it's like

282
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 6: your friend, it's really strict. And then Sunday's mid day.

283
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 6: So I remember on that no contact day, like the

284
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 6: one day it's really strict on texting or following or anything.

285
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 6: I had girls following me and they didn't even go

286
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 6: my sworty. So I'm like, that's so confusing.

287
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I'm going to say that that whole like

288
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 3: no contact, no following thing. Take that seriously. Because I

289
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,079
Speaker 3: had a great sorority and then I did I contacted

290
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 3: someone because I was so torn between what I was

291
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 3: going to pres and I didn't end up getting that sorority.

292
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:15,959
Speaker 4: I'm happy.

293
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 3: I'm so happy I ended up in the authorty that I did.

294
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 3: But I think that and then no party, especially if

295
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 3: it's the first week of week of school, guys like relax,

296
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 3: And I mean I did, Like, I partied the first.

297
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 2: Week before you before recruitment, and.

298
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 3: I went to like because the only people I knew

299
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 3: at my school were on the soccer team and they

300
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:37,439
Speaker 3: invited me to the soccer party.

301
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 5: And I was like, yeah, I'm going to that.

302
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 2: And I should not.

303
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 5: Have gone to that.

304
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 6: I was the biggest follower. It wasn't crazy. I thought

305
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 6: I was going to get dropped for like the smallest things.

306
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 2: And then it posted a TikTok.

307
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 3: My roommate posted a TikTok about us going out and

308
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 3: it went viral.

309
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 2: Oh my god, it got like three million views.

310
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,200
Speaker 6: I could have never I would have never let her

311
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 6: post it. I would have never gone.

312
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 2: Everyone would pop in like you're gonna have to post

313
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:03,960
Speaker 2: the TikTok.

314
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 5: Oh my god, Yeah.

315
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 4: Should we add it onto the dirty Rush feed?

316
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 2: Wait, it's actually so good.

317
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 3: It's a video of me and my tiny dorm room

318
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 3: doing my blowout, and we all know I love my blowouts.

319
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 7: I also, oh yeah, and she took a video of

320
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 7: me doing my hair into the home Depot song.

321
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 5: You know the song.

322
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:30,119
Speaker 2: It's like yeah, boom.

323
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 5: Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom.

324
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 2: That's pretty good.

325
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 3: And it's me doing my hair and it went crazy

326
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 3: viral and then everyone during.

327
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 5: Rush was like, wait, are you the TikTok care girl?

328
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, my god.

329
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 4: See.

330
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 6: And this is a reason though, that I love that

331
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 6: my school does it before school starts. It'd be hard

332
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 6: when school starts, you're so excited about everything.

333
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 3: Well, she literally put on the video my roommate getting

334
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 3: ready for a night out in Westwood the night before Rush.

335
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 2: Oh my god, No, to your point, it was stupid.

336
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 1: The girls that are rushing you, the older girls have

337
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: been through Rush themselves, and so they're going to treat

338
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 1: you the way that they were rushed, if not worse.

339
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: Girls in authoritative positions are going to keep those positions.

340
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 2: And if they see you out, like.

341
00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 3: I was strict, there's.

342
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: Like if you see a younger girl partying, it's like,

343
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: get your bleep together, Like you're not supposed to party.

344
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: We're not partying because we're training how to rush you,

345
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,320
Speaker 1: and so you better not be party.

346
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 4: I agree, I'm so.

347
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 3: Trure, Like no one wants to be like dry that way,

348
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,320
Speaker 3: but everyone is and then yeah they see younger people

349
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 3: get yeah, you're like, what are you doing?

350
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 4: Yeah.

351
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: Another thing that I realized after rushing was that you're

352
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: not necessarily dropped from a sorority based on that they

353
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: didn't like you. A lot of it has to do

354
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: with they know that you're going to go another house

355
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: and they're giving the spot to someone else. You could

356
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: think that like, you had an amazing conversation with someone,

357
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: but they just know that you're not going to choose

358
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 1: this sorority in the end, and so they're going to

359
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 1: go with another girl that they would rather have.

360
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 3: Okay, well, here's what I'm going to say is I

361
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 3: think this is super specific to the school because we

362
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 3: weren't able to like handpick who. It's all about scores

363
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 3: that everyone gave, so we weren't like, oh, they're probably

364
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 3: going to go them. I'm going to give them a

365
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 3: lower score. You just gave them a score based off

366
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 3: of their you know, your experience with them, and then

367
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 3: it was all about the cumulative score that they had

368
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 3: and if they chose you again.

369
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 6: It's such an interesting point though, because what you brought up, Emma,

370
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 6: because like then, what we were talking about earlier with

371
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 6: if knowing someone helps, then it also can not help

372
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 6: you because if you're best friends with a girl in

373
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 6: one swarty and you're trying to get into another but

374
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 6: they know that's your best friend's sister, cousin, whatever, then

375
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 6: maybe they don't take you because they're like, we don't

376
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 6: have a shot with her. Even though a lot of

377
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 6: girls are always open yeah to some girls want to

378
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 6: do something different than their best friend's sister would. So

379
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 6: like it's really an interesting conversation of does it help

380
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 6: you or hurt you? And I feel like it differs.

381
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, Emma, for your school for a Boulder, was it

382
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 3: about cumulative score or someone But you're kind of talking

383
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 3: about like you could pick and choose kind of who

384
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 3: was coming in when it came to that final round,

385
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 3: like we're going to give her a bit or not

386
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 3: versus us. It was just about who were the top

387
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 3: girls based off their score at the top of our list.

388
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 1: Well, I mean it was also the amount of people

389
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 1: that we were allowed to take back each day, and

390
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,959
Speaker 1: so then it came down to they didn't these people

391
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: all got great scores, but we had so many great scores.

392
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: So then there was lots of conversations. We had a

393
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 1: lot of conversations with like our standards of the sorority

394
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,919
Speaker 1: and the recruitment chairs in terms of like who what

395
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,439
Speaker 1: of these great girls do we get to pick? And

396
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: then you know, when it comes down to pref then

397
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: it's like you put all your best eggs in one

398
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 1: basket and then.

399
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: You don't even know if everyone's going to pick you.

400
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:18,919
Speaker 4: Yeah.

401
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 1: I will say that my sorority for the longest time

402
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: had a ninety nine percent retention rate.

403
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 4: That's awesome, pretty great.

404
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 5: You guys were preffing hard. Were people crying?

405
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 1: To be honest, like I would like to say, I

406
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 1: was a great You prefer people cry during our pref

407
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: We have one of the most insane prefs. I bawled

Speaker 1: You have whatever storty girls are smart.

426
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 4: Art can do everything.

427
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 3: Okay, wait, I have another tip on the Instagram thing. Okay,

428
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 3: you need to follow. This is something I think it

429
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 3: is important. You need to follow every sorority at your school.

430
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 3: Even if you don't care what some of the stories

431
00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 3: are doing, you have to follow.

432
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 4: That was something I would love for.

433
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 3: I'm like, are they just following the top ones or

434
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 3: are they following everyone?

435
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: To second this, do not talk s about other sororities

436
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: because other people are around you. Other people are they

437
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:14,679
Speaker 1: will in.

438
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 2: The rogans are smarties.

439
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 1: The rogams are also in sororities, and if they hear

440
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 1: girls talking about their sorority or other sororities, it gets reported.

441
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 2: To panel and then you get dropped immediately.

442
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: And if you think it's just like you're disappointed or

443
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,959
Speaker 1: you don't want to go see a house. At my school,

444
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: it was required that you visited every single house on

445
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 1: the first and every single house that brought you back.

446
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 4: To show up.

447
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 3: If you didn't show up for a round because you

448
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 3: were like, I'm not going to be this, and if

449
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 3: you if you were wait, we've had a conversation. We've

450
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 3: had an episode about this called throwing Around. If you

451
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:56,160
Speaker 3: threw around or purposely did not show up to one,

452
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 3: you were dropped from recruitment entirely.

453
00:20:58,480 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, that was.

454
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, we're ours was the same. I don't know why

455
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 6: I reacted like that.

456
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 4: Curious. I was like, oh my gosh, that's so many.

457
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 4: But then I was like, wait, we all did that.

458
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just trying to eat her kit cat.

459
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,680
Speaker 6: I actually have like another topic. Okay, what I didn't

460
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,439
Speaker 6: know how to gauge, like going into recruitment was like

461
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 6: how to really know what sority was your best fit?

462
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,919
Speaker 6: And I'm curious what you guys were looking for, Like,

463
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,919
Speaker 6: were you like hoping to connect with one girl specifically,

464
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 6: because I think I've definitely heard that a lot of

465
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 6: people will connect really well with an older girl and

466
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 6: then they go that sorority because of it, they have

467
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 6: an insane bond and then they're a freshmen and the

468
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 6: older girls a senior. And it's like I didn't like,

469
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 6: like connect with the girls like that in my own PC,

470
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 6: but I connected with the senior that's now graduating. So

471
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 6: I think it's really hard to know, like exactly how

472
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 6: to know what's your right fit. So I'm curious, like you,

473
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 6: how you guys knew.

474
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,160
Speaker 1: So my sorority when we were going through recruitment, there

475
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 1: was a lot of talk in just have trust in

476
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,200
Speaker 1: the process in terms of like if an older girl's

477
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 1: recruiting you and you don't think you're gonna get along

478
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:05,879
Speaker 1: with the PC, perhaps or not even get along, but

479
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: just like you're not friendly with them, just trust that

480
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 1: the older girls are recruiting the younger girls that think

481
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 1: we all have the same minds and have the same interests,

482
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 1: Like it's all one collective group of girls that kind

483
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: of have similar likes and dislikes and values for the

484
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: most part.

485
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that whichever you feel like aligns with

486
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,439
Speaker 3: your values the most, and you can like I remember

487
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 3: I was at prep and I was there was one

488
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 3: sorority where I was like, these girls actually seem really

489
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 3: cool and they actually seem like they genuinely really like

490
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 3: each other, and the other one I was like, this

491
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 3: seems like a little bit of bs that I think

492
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,959
Speaker 3: they're all like these are just crocodile tears or whatever.

493
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 3: I just think, like, trust your gut on it. But

494
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 3: also I do think that if there are girls in

495
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,160
Speaker 3: the sorority, if you feel like, you know, you're really

496
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 3: interested in one subject or interested in one area or whatever,

497
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,119
Speaker 3: and you can see that kind of represented within this sorority,

498
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 3: I do think that's important. Like if if you know,

499
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 3: you feel like the girls are pursuing their own things,

500
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,119
Speaker 3: or they're all seem really smart or really academically inclined, like,

501
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 3: I think that's important too.

502
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 2: But I have another Oh well, to finish that off.

503
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 1: I have this one liner that my big told me

504
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 1: when she was pressing me, which then I passed on

505
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: to my little what I was pressing her, and it

506
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: was pick a house where you feel comfortable going number

507
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 1: two in.

508
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 3: It's not what I was a lot less cheesy than

509
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 3: I thought you were gonna say.

510
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, like, if.

511
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 1: You can like picture like a house where you can

512
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 1: like sit on the toilet and poop and like people

513
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: are around you, pick that house.

514
00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 6: And I was like, the last thing I was expecting

515
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 6: you to tell me is like pick a house, pick

516
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 6: a home, not ah, mine's a lot cheesier than that.

517
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 5: But at.

518
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 6: Oh, my best friend from high school pref to me,

519
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:16,640
Speaker 6: and I remember she was like, I was torn. Even

520
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 6: though my best friend was in the house, I was

521
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 6: I was torn. And I remember she was like, you

522
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 6: need to like look around at the girls in line

523
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 6: and like the girls you're talking to before entering and

524
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,199
Speaker 6: nextiting the house, and like, do you like see yourself

525
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 6: being in a PC with them? She's like, at the

526
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 6: end of the day, this is what I brought up earlier.

527
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 6: You can talk to all these older girls and they

528
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 6: can be amazing, but it's gonna be the girls in

529
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 6: your PC that are your best friends. And I remember

530
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 6: her being like, you need to like look like look

531
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 6: around this room right now, like do you see yourself

532
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 6: being in a PC with the girls in this room?

533
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 6: And I remember that was a big game changer for me.

534
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 3: Okay, because I do think this is a really good point,

535
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 3: And this leads me to my next question, because it

536
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 3: is all about the PC.

537
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 4: I know, bridesmaids like you really.

538
00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 3: In the house with and I do think that like,

539
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 3: please fluctuate based off PC. The overall vibe tends to

540
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 3: be consistent, but like I do think it matters your PC.

541
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 3: And so here's my question to you guys, especially since

542
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,159
Speaker 3: we all rushed, like right when we got to school

543
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 3: even before. If you made friends, you know, prior to

544
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 3: rush or during rush, do you think it's a good

545
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 3: idea to go a sorority just because?

546
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:24,919
Speaker 4: Not just because, but say you're.

547
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 3: Torn and you have more friends that you know or

548
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 3: girls that you know that you get along with going

549
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 3: one sorority, should you go that sorority?

550
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,199
Speaker 1: Well? I can't answer that because my roommate and my

551
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: best friend at the time best friend now not best

552
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 1: friend at the moment, because we just met each other,

553
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 1: we wouldn't tell each other which house is because we

554
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 1: really liked each other so much, and so we were

555
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 1: hoping that we would end up in the same sorority

556
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: based on our interests and based on the people that

557
00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: we want to surround ourselves with.

558
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 2: Did you and we did?

559
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 5: Wow?

560
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 4: So that's and that's such a sign. Yeah.

561
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 1: So I feel like, you know, if you make the

562
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: wrong decision and you go a sorority that none of

563
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,200
Speaker 1: your friends are and who cares it happens to people?

564
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 4: You can still be their best friend.

565
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, but also just go with your gut and like

566
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a great time no matter what.

567
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 6: Sometimes people like like having their sorority be something kind

568
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:24,880
Speaker 6: of separate than their friend group, and it's like where

569
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 6: they get involved in leadership and certain other aspects, and

570
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 6: it's kind of like, doesn't always have to be your

571
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,120
Speaker 6: entire friend group and your sorority also because it's fun

572
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 6: to bring your friends as dates.

573
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 2: Yeah for sure.

574
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

575
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 3: My best friend from college was my freshman year roommate,

576
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 3: and we we went different stories. We actually me and

577
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 3: all my rooms prefed the same sorority, but we all

578
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 3: ended up in different ones.

579
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,360
Speaker 2: Oh that's crazy.

580
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 3: Because what she did, the one that she like that

581
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 3: we all preffed and then I ended up and the

582
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 3: one that I was like supposed to end up in,

583
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 3: but we had all kind of agreed that we were.

584
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 3: So sometimes you know, fate takes over. Yeah, the sororities

585
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 3: system takes over and might separate you. But I think

586
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 3: I do think, I don't know, especially for everyone going

587
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 3: into rush right now, you know, winter semester. I think

588
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 3: if you know a group of girls or already have

589
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 3: a group of girls that you're friends with, and you

590
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:27,119
Speaker 3: are all I don't know interested in the same storty.

591
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 4: I don't think it's a.

592
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 3: Bad thing for you to go all go that same sorority.

593
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 2: No, I don't either.

594
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 6: I honestly would give the advice of what Emma did,

595
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 6: and I would not tell each other.

596
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's what.

597
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:42,640
Speaker 6: I would want to do if I was going into

598
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,919
Speaker 6: second semester rush, which I've never done before. But I

599
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 6: would want to not tell each other because I would

600
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 6: hope that we'd all end up in the same sworty.

601
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and kind of it works out.

602
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 6: And there's still going to be your friends if they

603
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,919
Speaker 6: go a different sworty, so you should never feel like

604
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 6: pressure to all go the same sworty. Yeah, they'll still

605
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 6: be your best friends. Yeah, it's true.

606
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 3: The whole I think the whole truth of everything though,

607
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:08,400
Speaker 3: is like nothing, None of it is that deep. It's like, yeah,

608
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 3: being in a sorority is really fun, but also and

609
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 3: getting involved as much as you want or whatever and

610
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 3: make the best friends you can, but also getting having

611
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 3: friends in different sororities or not in any sororities at all.

612
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 5: It's also important too.

613
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I really do feel strongly that everyone ends up

614
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 6: where they're supposed to be like, yeah, and I know

615
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 6: that's easier for me to say, and probably you guys

616
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 6: as people who probably had a good rush experience. From

617
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 6: what you guys are saying, it sounds like, but it's

618
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 6: just like even when I feel like someone it's like

619
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 6: sad because I know my sworty is dropping someone that

620
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 6: I really liked. It's like, I know they're going to

621
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 6: be happy where they're going next.

622
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 4: And they usually always are.

623
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, So I do feel like it's like everything there's

624
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 6: a lot of want to put too much pressure on yourself,

625
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 6: like just because you think you want one sorority, Like

626
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 6: so many girls end up in a different sworty and

627
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 6: they're like, I can't even imagine what my life would

628
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 6: be like if I was in that sorty, Like because

629
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 6: I love my life right now and the girls I

630
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 6: met through my sorority that maybe you didn't want it first,

631
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 6: And I just do feel like everything happens for a

632
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 6: reason in that process.

633
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

634
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 3: Also, I think my last parting piece of advice is

635
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,600
Speaker 3: that if you if you end up on bid day

636
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 3: and you end up in the sorority that you didn't

637
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 3: prep or didn't necessarily want, slap on a smile on

638
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 3: your face, agreed, and be happy of it, because I

639
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:30,520
Speaker 3: so remember.

640
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 4: I still remember the girls.

641
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 3: That showed up to our mid day and did not

642
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 3: seem excited, and like we're almost like shedding a tear

643
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 3: because they wanted to be in another house. And you never

644
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 3: forget that because that makes you feel so icky. And

645
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 3: I just just keep an open mind, don't get just

646
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 3: and if you end up in this sorority that you

647
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 3: don't want, there's a reason behind it. And and also

648
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 3: it's really not that deep like you're gonna make friends anywhere.

649
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 3: Just just go in, especially if you stay open and

650
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 3: go in just with positivity.

651
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 5: That's what I would say.

652
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, So for those rushing this January or February whenever

653
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: second specer rushes, go in with a big smount of

654
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 1: positive attitude and you're gonna kill it.

655
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, an end up where you're supposed to be.

656
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, sisters for life. It's just for life. And that'll

657
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 2: do it for Dirty Rush. Bye bye,
