Oh. In that case, please enjoy high school, get into a decent college, and come back in 1 year.

Once again, I have to say that is great advice except the fact he's already in college.

I need to start reading more than the first and last pages of threads.

Thanks for that.

I get what you're saying. You really CAN'T have a thread about "General Advice for Fraternity Rush". There aren't many (if any) universal rules for IFC rush like there are for NPC rush. I noticed even on my own campus that there isn't even universal rules between groups (besides the few that IFC establishes....after that it's kind of anything goes).

Also, guys tend to be less likely to reach out for help on something like rush then girls are.

The only thing I can think of to tell any guy who's rushing is just to be yourself and find a group that fits who you are, instead of what you think you want to be.

I would disagree with that -- if you want to join a house because you think it'll make you a better person than you are, do that.

Go to a place where you feel comfortable, or else, go to a place where you can get the type of fraternal experience you're looking for. You're right about IFC rules though -- in most cases, even if they exist, they're completely ignored by almost everyone.

This is an interesting post.

NIC does it a little different maybe not so such in "The Ole South", but I do not know for sure.

But according to a source I trust, the rules of enagagment of Sororitys may be changing also becuse of the structure as such. A lot is depending on the schools them selves and the structure.


Young people today do not need to be run like cattle or sheep, they feel that they want to think on their own or so then seem to think.
They have to be sold on the idea of becoming a Greek and what it may do for them in today's economy and The future.

So, what benefits do they get out of being a Greek. Much more than they can realize.

I was thinking maybe I can rush at SFSU the next semester, not to join a fraternity, but to see how rushing works, so i will have more experience next year.

Oh i have a new question now. Lets say I rushed at SFSU and joined a fraternity i like, and lets say i transferred to SDSU the next semester. Can i automatically transfer to the same fraternity at SDSU if it has a chapter there?
