A I was dragged kicking and screaming in- • to the Fraternity. That is no joke. When I pledged, I didn't realize it and none of my pledge brothers did either, but the chapter at Texas Tech only had twenty-one members. Their rush tech­ nique was to have parties in a very dark place with a very loud band. We didn't realize it , but most of the people at the parties were the rushees. They used what I still think is one of the most successful rush techniques, and that is one-on-one rush.
