Beastman - My husband, like most dads, thinks his baby girl is the most amazing girl on the planet. Very sweet and I wouldn’t want it any other way. :)

On the second day of rush my DD said she felt degraded, that it was like being in a cattle call, with all of the girls being bussed from house to house to stand in line to be superficially judged. She hated that she was putting herself in a situation that made her feel like she was begging for people to like her. She’s so independent and never had to try to make friends, it always came naturally. It was such a bizarre experience. But, like I said in my first post, she learned a lot about herself and is a much more confident and thicker skinned person than she was before. For that she is grateful to the Greek system.

She doesn’t have bad feelings toward the Greeks and has friends in sororities and fraternities. It’s a good thing for some and not so good for others. In defense of Greeks, they do a lot of good service work and are generally a nice group of young adults.
