I'll be honest. I've always thought that two things are your best bets in any fraternity system in the south. The first is connections and the second is the high school you went to. Since you have neither of those going for you, it is certainly much harder.
I don't know about Florida's orientation, but at Arkansas orientation (was there last night actually), the fraternities have booths where people can sign up on lists to let the fraternities know they're interested. The fraternities usually take 'em out later that night to go boozing and so forth. Try to sign up on those lists, furthermore find out about summer rush parties. Most fraternities at UofA have parties in Dallas, Memphis and Little Rock. There may be one closer to your house.

Overall, though, it's the bigness of the car that counts the most. Because when something bad happens in a really big car – accidentally speeding through the middle of a gang of unruly young people who have been taunting you in a drive-in restaurant, for instance – it happens very far away – way out at the end of your fenders. It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
