I agree with my esteemed brother above: Would you call your country a "c***"? Didn't think so.
Don't call the fraternity a "frat". It's true - some find it offensive.
Different note: I was a junior transfer when I pledged. Age doesn't matter really. As long as you can handle being instructed by people possibly younger than you and showing respect to those guys because they have been there.
Good luck, man. Keep your eyes open. Use this semester to check out the scene and see what the fraternities are really about judging by their actions, involvements, and events on and off campus this semester. You may find something better for you simply by observing. Besides, you rushed to meet some folk - re-rush EVERYONE and meet more guys. It can never hurt!
