RUSH ledging xheir loyalty It was a wonderful experience. I feel like I have a second family, a new place to call home. I chose the right house for me, and I realize it ' s going to be an awesome experience. - Erica Penick Rush week gave fraternities and sororities a chance to inform students about what Greek life had to offer. It gave them the opportunity to meet others that shared their interests two weeks before school started. Although it was an extremely stressful time, it was one of the best decisions I ever made because I met more people than I ever imagined, freshman Ayrelle Britt said. Sorority Rush began with two days of open house par¬ ties. These allowed Rushees to become acquainted with the many different houses. A Rushee had to receive an invitation to return to a sorority after open house. As the week progressed, Rushees also eliminated houses and went to fewer ones. Also, as Rush moved forward the dress became more formal and the time span of the par¬ ties was longer. By Pref Night, the last night of parties, Rushees generally had a good idea of which house they were interested in. This was a very formal night in which sororities had almost completely narrowed down their choices. Bid Day, the following morning, was where the Rushees, under the invitation of sororities, became pledges. It was a wonderful experience. I feel like I have a sec¬ ond family, a new place to call home. I chose the right house for me, and realize it ' s going to be an awesome experience, Erica Penick said. Fraternity Rush was also held during the summer. Informal Rushees were invited to parties for each house. These parties were located anywhere from Texas to Oklahoma, so men from out of the area could get a feel of the Greek system at the University. By the time school started, fraternity houses and Rushees had an idea of who they wanted to join. The majority of formal Rush was open house to whomever could not visit or did not receive a phone call or letter during summer Rush. Incoming freshmen and other eligi¬ ble Rushees had a good idea of which house they would feel more comfortable in, too. This was the best summer of my life. I really enjoyed Rush because it gave me a chance to get to know the members before coming up to school. I found it a lot eas¬ ier to relax around them freshman Jeff Pride said. — Elizabeth Carter 28

COLLEGE BOWL brains College Bowl taught me In addition to providing programs to entertain students, University Programs also gave students a chance to test that, although I think I am their wit and knowledge. Sponsored nationally by the Association of College smart, there are a lot of Unions-International (ACU-I), College Bowl ' 96 was played Nov. 4-7. Many teams congregated in the Union Theatre people out there that are to compete against one another in a friendly round of questions and answers. College Bowl was a 5-on-5 game smarter than me. with teams representing independent groups, residence halls and Greek organizations. - Jean Biondi This game broke the usual quiz bowl stereotype. Anyone, whether they knew it all or were just looking for a good time, could be sponsored. With a simple applica¬ tion, teams were able to participate against each other just for the thrill of it or in an attempt to win a trip to the regional All-Star Tournament in Dallas. First-place team House of Pain represented both honors residence halls and was awarded the opportunity to send two players to regionals. The second-place team, The Purple People Eaters, was awarded the chance to send one player and an alternate to the tournament. The third— -place team was allowed to send one alternate. Other winners received gift certificates from Hastings and Campus Bookstore. Many students took College Bowl seriously and looked forward to its annual arrival. College Bowl taught me that, although 1 think I am smart, there are a lot of people out there that are smarter than me, freshman Jean Biondi said. But watch out for next year because we ' ll be back and better than ever. It ' s also good that College Bowl is designed for annual competition rather than any other way. It somehow seems more prestigious that way. Although I love the game and sport that comes along with it, 1 would rather win once a year than once a week. It seems like a bigger accomplish¬ ment, Biondi said. College Bowl gave interested students a good opportu¬ nity to show off their everyday knowledge of certain sub¬ jects, such as mathematics, history, literature and current world events. Even if they did not win, competitors had a whole year to prepare and study for College Bowl ' 97. — Elizabeth Carter 30
