The opportunities of Greek life are protected by a v high paywall, only open to those (or those whose parents) can afford such a privilege. Registering for recruitment at UA runs PNMs close to $400 alone, with no guarantee you'll get an offer come bid day. Membership dues at ‘Bama cost thousands of dollars per semester (like, over $4,000 for not even living in the houses), in addition to the themed costumes and outfits, gift-giving, and events that pile onto the expected costs of being a sorority girl. On top of tuition, joining a sorority can be expensive AF. Yes, you read that right, 2013, as in nine years ago. You don’t have to scroll through #BamaRush for long to see the obvious lack of diversity and classism on display as countless thin, (usually) blonde, self-tanned white women show off their privilege via OOTDs consisting of frilly boutique dresses and and gold jewelry. Like most historic organizations, Greek life has a long track record of being racist and classist, with the University of Alabama only desegregating their sororities in 2013. With the viral success of RushTok, concerns surrounding the problematic ways of sororities have become amplified for millions of people to hear. The girls are handed envelopes with a letter inside revealing the name of the sorority they have been offered to join, which once opened, is usually followed by an unreal amount of of high-pitched shrieking and happy luck this week girls! 💛✨ #kendrascott #fyp #bamarush #bamarushtok ♬ as it was x cruel summer x deja vu - matty james
Bid Day: The final day of rush week when the hundreds of PNMs gather to find out which sorority they got into.PNMs who do not receive an invite for the next round are “dropped.” :( Drop: At the end of each round, PNMs rank their top sororities while actives decide which girls will be invited back to the sorority house.Rounds: Each day of rush week is known as a “round.” As rush week progresses, rounds become invite-only, with actives narrowing down their choice of PNMs to return.
Actives play a key role in recruiting PNMs and have major pull in deciding who gets invited back to the sorority house during rush week rounds.
Actives: Current members of a sorority. PNMs with large TikTok followings are often called “rush queens.” The more ya know. The undergrad women going through rush with hopes of landing a sorority offer. Wayyy better than my college #bamatiktok deserves to know! 💁♀️ #bama #bamarush #bidday #housetour #fyp ♬ original sound. Btw, these “houses” at University of Alabama are actually multi-MILLION dollar mansions. Rush: The week-long sorority recruitment “try-out” process, during which undergrad women become acquainted with current members of various sorority houses. There is *a lot* to unpack when it comes to Bama Rush, so, before we jump into the ins and outs of sorority recruitment, here's a crash course on some of the most common RushTok lingo you’ve probs been hearing over the past couple weeks: RushTok Lingo 101 The cult following RushTok has gained, especially of the young women chronicling their journey to sisterhood at SEC schools like the University of Alabama (aka 'Bama), places the obsession with Bama Rush somewhere between the Miss USA pageant and the NFL Draft.įor those who aren’t as familiar with that side of TikTok or are maybe just a little confused by everything that goes into rush, let’s get you up to speed. And strangely enough, we can’t help but get sucked back into the swirling vortex of micro-vlogs highlighting every damn detail that goes into the sorority recruitment process as colleges across the country begin their Fall 2022 semester. We interrupt your TikTok scrolling for an important message: #BamaRush is back, baby! Yep, it's officially that time of year when every third video on our FYP has been taken hostage by starry-eyed, University of Alabama undergrads documenting their sorority rush experience for the viral phenomenon that is #BamaRushTok.
