I also agree with the casual contact approach. A week or so before my freshman year I contacted one of the members from the national fraternity in a similar facebook group through a private message. He got back to me quickly and I was able to set up a meeting with the two members from IHQ. They explained a bit about the fraternities history, themselves, and what the process from an interest group->colony->chapter would be like. From there we continued contact and after mutual investigation I received and accepted my bid. As the former poster suggested though, it will be an interesting ride should you end up joining. It will be filled with highs and lows but is ultimately worth it and I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat. Just make sure you do your research and make sure you agree with what the fraternity and this colony's members stand for. It may seem obvious but still worth mentioning that if your personal values don't agree with this fraternity don't join.
