Consultants say they get a steady stream of anxious calls.
Emotions only intensify as the week goes on, as cuts are made and girls aren't invited back to sorority houses.
But the freshmen girls aren't the only ones freaking out.
Consultants regularly get calls from moms too.
Here's Trisha.
sometimes Trisha ends up having to calm down an entire family.
Like this one situation she told me about.
It all started with the mom spiraling.
This wasn't the only middle of the night call Trisha has gotten from a parent.
And it wasn't even the craziest story she shared with me.
She told me about one mom who'd heard from her friend about which sororities were quote unquote the best at her daughter's school.
When her daughter got dropped by several of them, the mom was not happy to say the least.
I can't make this stuff up.
Trisha told me she couldn't help herself.
She went off on the mother.
Trisha doesn't have a degree in psychology, but she says the job often feels like family therapy.
The same goes for Lori.
She has no shortage of stories about telling moms to calm down.
Brooke told me that neither she nor her mom ended up calling Lori in tears during rush week.
Still, she felt a big sense of relief when it was finally over.
