What are some good ways to be a standout rushee

[jr09]

Whats up guys, Im James. I plan on transferring to Clemson University in the fall of 2011, and then rushing in the spring of 2012. (Ill be 20 then). My question is, what can I do to make the existing members go "We need this kid in our organization". I mean I plan on becoming involved with Student Government,another Service organization,and college republicans. Ill most likely come in as a soph, and will maintain a 3.5.-4.0 GPA as a Political Science major. Ive read that

The main reason I want to join a fraternity, aside from the desire to form friendships, be part of a respected brotherhood, and have a good time, is because I want to be "that guy" that fellow students look up to. I want to be a leader among my peers., and an example of a model student. I feel like going greek is one way to establish that status. I plan on attending as many pre-rush events as I can, and building a good reputation on campus.

So what advice do you guys have for making a good impression at a Greek rush function? I read that you guys hate being asked about reputations of frats and sororities at individual schools, but this is really just a general question.
