All that being said besides a select few good friends I made, everyone in the chapter is very standoff-ish and is not involved only ever wanting to drink and never attend events involving the entire greek community. Not to mention an entire older class did not make our grade requirements this semester. Overall the entire environment of the chapter is very un-healthy and when I transfer I want a fresh start. It has also come to light to me that the my fraternity is on my new campus and has a similar if not the exact same reputation. Following a release from my current fraternity and possibly explaining my situation to a new fraternity I may rush at my new school would I be considered to be given a bid?
Thank you,
I would like to apologize in advance because I know this is a very sour topic.
So you are planning to resign your membership from your fraternity? Since you really won't be able to pledge another fraternity, can you not affiliating with the chapter at your new school, but retain your membership as an alum?
