ERIKA, Yes, my son is a Junior this year. He NEVER had an interest (due to lack of fraternity interest in our area) but things have really changed this past year. With his sister involved, he had to listen to EVERYTHING during her rush, Now he hears about the "fun" stuff and he and his friends have decided to go through the process. It's funny, those guys look at the "trappings" the same as the girls do. He's heard about the KA's and their formal and thinks that's pretty neat (NOT HIS WORD-MINE) He also wants to know who has the highest GPA and of course they ALL are into the GQ image thing... He won't ask his sister directly-too cool for that, so I have to ask then and supply what info I can. It's pretty funny because he doesn't want to appear too interested.
Yep-we have just about the same situation. Had it not been for a school transfer in Kindergarten-public to private (with the classrooms being full I had to keep him in Kindergarten twice) he would be a SENIOR!!! Never lets me forget it when it comes to curfew requests... H2OOT said it's competative between the "top" houses for the guys, but more relaxed amoung the other fraternities. I'll find out soon enough.
I will be a lonely old lady when my baby boy leaves...Thank goodness my Hubby and I are FRIENDS as well as "loves". I might otherwise spend my time pushing a shopping cart along deserted streets!
