Also: 
a) no it shouldn't harm your chances of getting a bid (it might even give you conversation topics during rush!) 
b) you should know when initiation is far enough in advance to make any changes you need to a work schedule

 A. I thought that it would be a great conversation starter as well, I was also just concerned that they might be hesitant to extend a bid to me since I might have to miss some events. 
B. Oh, good. :] Nothing worse than having to call out of work so late in the game. ]:

 The only problem with working on campus is at my school at least, the hours they give are so minimal. Like, under 10 a week. Living on my own (well, away from the 'rents at least) in an apartment requires more than ten hours a week. ]:
