Recruitment with drug arrest
So I am about to end my first semester as a freshman at my university, where freshmen are not allowed to join fraternities until second semester. During this semester I was arrested in my dorm for possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia (personal use, no distribution or any others involved), I was not kicked out of my residence hall or suspended but I was put on both disciplinary and housing probation for a full calender year.
I want to rush a fraternity next semester, but I am worried that my record and the fact that I will be on probation might hurt my chances of getting a bid.
During recruitment do fraternities check up on this kind of stuff? And if they do would they care about this? Any information would be helpful.
I understand that all schools and fraternities are different, personal experiences and general information is really what I am looking for. I will find out in the spring either way. Thanks for your input.
