l l l RU H! 'iAueso:ncU ' tid 'lStressful .tre ti-to adjectives Emily ilgrtl in .ind Caroline Caton. respectively, used to dest-rib: rush. After weeks of anticipation for most Queens girls. the four day event finally arrived Sept. 17, 1987, Rush started off with a bang when there was an All-Greek sorority sing. After that. the rushees were divided up into groups and were assigned Rush Counselors who helped them understand what was to happen during the next four days. On Thursday everyone went to all four houses - Alpha Delta Pi, Chi Omega, Kappa Delta, and Phi Mu - for fifteen minutes each. The next day the rushees went back to the houses for thirty minutes each. On Saturday, each house put on 45 minute skits and the rushees went to three of the houses. This was a crucial night for the houses, so they tried to do their best. Phi Mu did a show called Pinky's Place while the rushees sat at candlelit tables. Kappa Delta's show was Moviola where the sisters dressed up as movie stars of the past. Alpha Delta Pi's skit was a take-off on MTV called Pi TV, where the sisters changed the words to the songs and made them about A D Pi. Chi Omega did a skit that was a take-off on The Wizard of Oz . I loved seeing the sisters do their skits, Barbara Bucher said, You see such a different side of the campus - you experience an all- greek sisterhood that carries over even after Rush.

Aan, X Sunday was the big day. The day where the rushees would decide which house to pledge. Sunday parties were the most sentimental. Amanda Knox was sure when she left the house.
