Rush Week 15

Page 18 text:

Get ready, get set, rush! After two weeks of hard campaign- ing in the Lair and DA., fraternity and sorority rush week began. Sorority rush is very formal. Starting on Saturday and Sunday nights the girls visit each of the ten houses. The narrowing down of rushees for the so- rorities begins on Monday night, when the girls can revisit eight houses, then six and on preference night, three. Rush ends on Saturday morning when bids are matched with preference lists. Fraternity rush is not as formal. The guys may go to any house they want without having a certain number to visit. On Pledge Sunday they let the fraternities know their decision of which house they ' ll pledge by running up High Street and in to that house after the firing of the cannon. Fraternity pledges run toward their tiouses. Kappa Alpha starts the run with the traditional cannon shot. 14 Rush Week
