Surviving Rush... 1. Be yourself! If you feel uncomfortable doing this, maybe you should rush somewhere else. 2. Be outgoing no matter what (the one exception to the above rule). Rush is short and chaotic, so you have to be active and talk to everyone. 3. Spend lots of time at the house and get to know the brothers as well as possible in the time that you have. 4. During rush, visit 5 houses at most; you need to spend time getting to know the brothers at a house, and they need to get to know you to give you a bid. 5. Don't be upset if you get referred to another house. Houses do not want to waste your time. If you aren't going to get a bid, you will probably be told so and shown to another house where you will fit in better.

Hot MIT chicks: they're everywhere!

...And Girls During Rush. 1. If you hit it off with a cute freshman girl, convince her to come along on your first few fraternity visits. 2. If you hit it off with a cute upperclassman at a fraternity, well...not to burst your bubble or anything, but that's her job. 3. Warning: Girls hanging out at fraternities during Rush give you an idea about social life there...only to an extent. Don't be a fool and think that you'll be surrounded by women once Rush is over. Choose a house for the bros, not the girls.

Food: The Hellz Yeah & The Hellz No
1. Look for small, dirty-looking trucks on campus; good food to fill your tummy for 3 bucks. 2. Make friends at Wellesley: free food and other yummy treats. 3. Pour House: Saturday evenings, all burgers half price. Best $2 burger ever. 4. ...and other places to eat on Newbury and Boylston St.		1. Slob-dell. Avoid it at all costs. If you don't now, you will eventually. 2. Avoid spending money to eat during Rush. If you spend a penny on food, you're doing something wrong. 3. If the lobster snaps at you, check out some other houses.
