Transitioning from high school to college is such an exciting experience and joining a fraternity or sorority makes that exciting experience even better. Four years may not seem like a long time but from freshmen year to senior year, we all do a lot of growing up.

There is drama, tears, yelling, and a whole lot of bouncing and clapping. Even though rush workshop has its ups and downs, by the end of the week you will have made new friends and a lot of memories but here is what rush workshop is actually like:
