i found the greek system at the beginning of the year, and socially, the fraternity ive been hanging out with the most has been nothing great -- a real diamond in the rough i guess you could say. im gonna rush in the spring for sure, and if i get a bid i think it will be very beneficial to me socially. the one question i have though, is how beneficial? did many of you find your SOs through the greek system? did you find many friends in general, or was it limited to just your house?
thanks a lot

None of this post makes any sense.
You are hanging out with a fraternity that you say is "nothing great". If you think so lowly of them, why are you hanging out there? You're bashing a group with whom you plan to rush.
From your post, your primary goal is to get a higher social standing on campus and presumably to make you more appealing to women. I can assure you that this type of personal agenda is usually pretty transparent, and very off-putting. Sure, we join these organizations for many reasons, but going into it with the attitude of "what can they do for me?" is the wrong approach.
As for blaming your lack of social success on the school's "less-than-elite" status, that's a lame excuse. Life is what you make of it.
