Late 'Rush' Proposed

It is not the same. Now rushees (and many pledges, too.I can view the situation at hand with objective eyes. Imlons formed are now based on stronger ground, and emotion plays little part, since freshmen have become more adjusted. Why could this mature, sane, approach not have prevailed during formal rush? The answer is simple —Time and Numbers. When rushees are given time to consider the many ramifications of the decisions they make, when they are given time to know the people with whom they art to be "congenial," then, and only then, can they honestly give their pledge to a group. The greater pott ion of girls to be involued in rush have already gone through, and during informals, a more leisurely pace is set — so that the term "rush" Is hardly applicable. A better method of handling sorority rush must be found. Panhellenic Is contemplating a charge and is considering many methods in order to select one which will suit the particular needs of this campus. One of these methods proposes the delay of rush until first semester of the sophomore year.
