Is it bad to sign up for two interviews?

Then generally speaking, it should not matter.

In my opinion, you did the right thing by being honest with them about the other interview. They may have already known you had interviewed with the other fraternity and were ok with it. But the reason they asked you if you had other interviews was to see if you would be honest about it. So it is good that you were.

If the campus culture is such that rushees do not sign up for more than one - or perhaps the other fraternity is the chapter's "rival" - then hopefully you were able to convey your reasons - that you felt obligated to sign up for the other interview. And you followed that by letting them know that your interest truly lies with them.

Well why did you feel obligated, which is what I am going to assume you meant, if you were the one to sign up for it. And not knowing this type of rush format I cannot say, but I doubt that the organization will hold the fact that you were considering another organization against you but I cannot be sure. Thats just merely my opinion though.

I for one would wonder why they are giving that kind of interview.

If it is overly oppresive, I would wonder why?

Recruitment/rushing is a two way street. Each side has to feel each other out to see if there is a fit there.
