I'd think better to receive a hurt from those you don't know well (the fraternities) than to seem to be told by someone you care about that you are somehow not worthy. Especially if that is not necessarily the case . . .life is full of hurts, and no matter how much you want to avoid having those you care about be hurt, the fact of the matter that growth and maturation are often the result of a hurt. The WORST that can happen is that he goes through recruitment and doesn't get a bid. But . . .if he doesn't try, then the BEST that can happen - he finds a fraternal home - cannot happen. Who is she to deny him the CHANCE, only the chance, of succeeding? Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
