No, that's not what I said. (although your reading comprehension is obviously effed up as you are characterizing someone other than yourself as a troll)

I have no idea what a blue chip is, nor do I care...simply saying, some fraternity men might not want to bid you if you previously rushed and had no intentions of pledging.

Ooh, we got a badass over here. Chill, no need to be tripping.

But fair enough on the last note.

First of all, show 33girl some respect, whether it's because she's a mod, she's put her time into a sorority, she's older than you, she's awesome and she's a girl...take your pick of those, plus whatever else you can come up with.

@33girl, I think that the Blue Chip dinner he was speaking about is a formal dinner that fraternities hold during the Friday/last night of rush...basically, unless you do something stupid you'd more than likely get a bid from them.

That being said, she does have a point... unless your school has an extremely competitive rush, you could possibly be seen as a moocher if you go through rush again and aren't serious about it. Then again, they might not even remember you, I don't know what it's like there.

My advice would be that if you honestly think that you would enjoy being a part of greek life, then go for it... but, it's not for everybody. But, if you're going to go then you need to be committed to it...go to the parties to meet the brothers, find out what you can about what they do, etc. You should look at which chapter has the guys that you would like to hang around with A LOT...because those are the guys that will become your best friends. But, do be prepared for a little bit of skepticism just because of your past attempts...not saying that they'll hold it against you, but I'm sure that somebody will remember you.

...and if you don't think that you're quite ready to be committed to it, then you could look up some guys from different chapters and get to know them to find out more about what they're like.

Am I the only one who wants to see how far his attitude will get him during pledging process?
