Oh, sweetie... ok, listen, I haven't been here that long either but I'm telling you you are inviting more heat than I think you're probably ready to handle. I saw in another of your posts that you're a freshman at VCU (and on that note, posting similar questions all over different threads isn't going to do you well either), I know VCU has a greek system, I'm sure they have a greek office and lots and lots of information about how things work on THAT campus. Why trying to pledge 3 organizations at one time is a bad idea seems pretty self-evident to most of us; your just coming into the college/greek environment, it's a valid question for you. No one's saying it can't be done, but based on experience pledging even one organization, I think any alum would tell you that 3 is biting off more than you can chew. AND still manage to be a student. Why risk 3 memberships when you don't even have one?

Go to your greek office, speak to greeks in your classes, be discreet when wise and weigh your options with a realistic view toward how much you can handle and not flunk out.

Good luck!
