If your FYP is inundated with Bama Rush, but you're feeling overwhelmed by the ins and outs of recruitment, we've got you covered. Here's all the must know slang of #RushTok, explained.

Rush

Rush is slang for sorority recruitment week, which is when girls familiarize themselves with the different Panhellenic sororities on their college campus and attempt to join them.

PNM

PNM is short for "potential new member." These are the girls who are not yet in sororities and are looking to join one.

Actives

Actives refers to active members, or the people who are already in sororities. Actives are the ones recruiting PNMs, so they interact with them during rush and ultimately decide which PNMs will make it to the next round.

Recruitment counselors

Recruitment counselors are actives that disaffiliate from their sororities during rush to help PNMs. Depending on the campus, they are also referred to as Rho Chis, Pi Chis, or Gamma Chis.

Rounds

Every day of rush is a called a round, and as recruitment progresses, the rounds become more formal and more exclusive. Each round has a different theme, like sisterhood or philanthropy. After each round PNMs rank their favorite chapters, and actives vote on which PNMs will be invited back.

Parties

This one is easy enough to explain. Each round consists of parties at different chapters. On the first day of rush, PNMs will attend every party, and by the last day of recruitment, it will be narrowed down to only one or two chapters.

Drop

When a PNM isn't invited back to a sorority during rush they are "dropped" from the house.

Sisterhood

Usually one of the earlier days of recruitment, sisterhood day is when representatives from the chapters deliver presentations and address conversation topics that focus on their chapter's unique sisterhood and culture. A sisterhood encompasses the bond members of a sorority share and the events the chapter hosts for its members.

Philanthropy

Philanthropy is the round after sisterhood, where the chapters explain the cause(s) they support. The round is also referred to as philo.

Pref

The most formal, and most important, night of rush is pref night. On pref night a PNM goes to several parties and votes for which house they want to join — at the same time, the chapters vote on which PMNs they want to join their house.

Bid

A bid is the formal invitation to join a sorority.

Bid day

On bid day, PNMs find out which sorority they've been invited to join, and it culminates in a themed party at the sorority house.

Work week

Work week is the week beforerecruitment, when actives practice.

Legacy

Legacies are girls who have a familial connection to a sorority. Typically, they have a mom or sister who was also in the same sorority.

Bump

While PNMs are at a party, they will talk to several different active members of the chapter. When one active member interrupts another active member to start talking to the PNM, that's called bumping. Bumps are pre-planned and typically follow a rehearsed script.

Exec

Exec is short for executive board, which is the dozen or so people in charge of each chapter.

Dirty rushing

Dirty rushing is any sort of action taken by an active or a chapter that violates the rules of their campus' recruitment. One example is an active promising a PNM a bid.

Pledge class

A pledge class is all the girls that join a chapter during the same semester.
