8 Tips For Sigma Psi Omega's Rush Week
McKenzie Schooley

As the president of USAO's only sorority, Sigma Psi Omega, the beginning of the semester is a crazy busy time for me. But I am so so excited to meet all our potential new members and get to know them all! Rush Week 2016 is THIS WEEK! So in honor of rush, I thought I would give you all a few tips for the week. So from the president to you, here are eight tips for a rushing Sigma Psi.

1. Be Yourself!


This is absolutely the most important piece of advice I can give you. We really want to get to know you. The real you. We pride ourselves on the diversity of personalities, majors, and cultural backgrounds within our sisterhood. We would love to get to know you!

2. Don't Be Intimidated!


We are all just normal girls like you. We want this week to be fun, not anxiety inducing. We want you to feel comfortable around us.

3. Attend As Many Events As Possible!


The more we see your smiling face, the more we get to know the person behind it. If you can't attend, let us know! We understand busy schedules, let us know you're still interested!

4. Don't Just Attend; Be Involved!


We love to see initiative when it comes to getting to know other rushees and current members. The more you participate, the more fun you'll have. This week is all about fun.

5. Don't Be Afraid To Speak Up And Ask Questions!


We're here to make sure you are fully educated on who we are and what we are about before you make a commitment. There are no stupid questions! And if you have a question, chances are someone else was wondering the same thing.

6. Bring A Friend!


Having someone you know go through this experience can make it more enjoyable and less awkward! And of course, the more the merrier!

7. Don't Be Afraid To Approach Us Outside Of Rush Events!


We are here to guide you through the rushing experience and help you adjust to college life. Let us know how we can help you; I promise we don't bite!

8. Have Fun!


Relax and enjoy the events we have planned just for you! Your enjoyment is important to us and would love your feedback!


I hope these tips will help you throughout this week. Can't wait to meet all of you!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
