Third Year Rushing?

[Kirain]

Hi there. So...I'm going to be a third year and long story short, I've made some bad friends over the last two years. I had hung with a group who looked down on fraternities and sororities. I had always secretly wanted to join a fraternity which is why I convinced my friends last year to just go to the rush parties for free booze.

That said, I feel that my group of friends have scattered. Half of them dropped out and the other half aren't as close. So I really want to take this opportunity to try and join a fraternity this fall. My question is this - What do most fraternities think of third year rushing?

And also, I've been through interview questions before (me and my friends bullshitted those so we wouldn't get bids last year) and something that always struck up was "why do you want to be in our frat and what do you think of hazing". What would be a good answer to that?
