Hey Everyone!
I just wanted to check in to see how everyone is doing. Spring Rush season is here, and typically, this blog gets REALLY busy this time of year. Speaking of which......
You can't believe it's finally here, RUSH! Your adrenaline is running high; you have been waiting for this moment forever and can't believe it's finally happening. I always tell people to STAY ready, so you don't have to GET ready. Rush is such a wonderful yet stressful time for all prospective members. You wonder if you did enough to get noticed, you're hopeful that your college transcript will arrive in time, and you contact another member of the org of your choice, hoping (and praying) that they will write you a letter of recommendation.If you are a person hoping to gain membership this year, then hopefully, you have done your research, made sure that all of your ducks are in a row, and are just waiting and hopeful for the chapter of your choice to have membership intake.
If the chapter of your choice does NOT have membership intake this year, I strongly recommend that you continue connecting with the chapter by attending various events. Volunteer for multiple programs, and more importantly, get to know the members. I was advised against doing this right at the time you find out the chapter of your choosing is hosting a rush. As members, we want to see that you have a passion for working in the community and that you have proof of doing so for several years prior to attending Rush.
Good luck to all of you and remember, YOU GOT THIS!
