It depends on what the fraternity's own rules say. I've heard of men terminating their membership in ABC to join XYZ but there was a lot of red tape to go through.

I'm glad the NPC unanimous agreements are in place...it makes a whole lot of things easier.

Make an investment in the right relationships and in the organization to make it better. Those investments will pay off for the organization and for you, personally. Work to bring out the best in people and the organization. Expose those who are negative in fraternal relationships and organizational development. Don't just complain, but instead, offer better solutions. You will face challenges, but that will make you stronger. Do the right thing

Ha, that comparison is ridiculous. Unless he's sleeping with his fraternity.

sorry, my brain is so far below the gutter lately you can't imagine.

But in real answer to the OP - I knew a few guys who ended up not liking the fraternity they joined. Some of them hung out at other fraternities and that was no problem - however, our school was pretty laid back and I know at some schools it's not like that. But even so, I don't think anyone would have been down with a guy who was a member of one fraternity for 2 1/2 years quitting and trying to rush another one.

You sound burned out and like you need some time off. That's what summer is for. Just give it a few months - there might be some guys in the next pledge class you really like, or the other guys in the fraternity might have changed a little bit too.

Obviously, the point being made is not sexual, but about commitment.

Of course, but it was still a pretty ridiculous comparison.

But still, I was trying to make point, laced with a bit of humor.
