I agree, and if you are having doubts, DO NOT GET INITIATED. If you are looking at other groups and wishing that you were somewhere else, DO NOT GET INITIATED. Once you are initiated into an NPC group, that is it. No 2nd chances. So, don't get pressured into anything. That is all.
That being said, if you drop and then rush again in the fall, (with the caveat that I don't know how competitive your school is), you might have a difficult time securing a bid from a different house. You may be viewed as (sorry...), "damaged goods" for going with another house and then dropping them. It's not my intention to be harsh, but I just wanted to offer the non-sunshine blowing viewpoint.
I hope you have a happy ending, because my "story" is very similar to yours.
