2) Be honest about how you are first received at each group. This is important anyway, but if you feel that you are getting any sort of pushback in making a first impression, move on. There are too many groups out there to zero in on one that thinks this is okay.
For #1, I wouldn't put too much emphasis on this point. I would rely MUCH more heavily on #2. With the demographics of IFC Greek Life at some Big 10 Schools, that might be just how rush went that year. I know, for instance, that a lot of my friends preferred to rush NALFO or BGLO, but those who did gravitate towards IFC fraternities had few problems.

With that being said, there are a few fraternities where you might find problems, but that will be evident if you follow DeltaBetaBaby's Rule #2.

If you don't make it a big deal, no one else will. That goes with everything for Recruitment, in my opinion.... (Which is from a sorority perspective).
