Have you read the other threads, or are you just assuming that they don't answer your questions?

The reality is there is no one answer to your question. There's not a recipe for starting a fraternity; there's no one way to do it. The information that adpiucf gave you is certainly useful, but the reality is that a good number of existing (and thriving) fraternities did not follow the advice she set out. What works one place and with one group of people will fail miserably somewhere else or with a different group of people.

The best way for you to figure out what will work for you is learn how other organizations, especially those similar to what you want to start, began. Learn from their successes, learn from their mistakes and use your own intelligence and imagination to apply what you've learned to your specific situation on your campus. That's why the best advice you've been getting is to read the existing threads on the subject. I'm sorry that you see it as people blowing you off.
