I found this interesting... Ramapo "suggests" new students interested in sororities and fraternities ask these questions on their greek website (
http://www.ramapo.edu/studentlife/st...eek/index.html):
Each fraternity or sorority has their own ideals and traditions which make them unique. Below are some common questions that one might ask when meeting them to find out more about their Greek organization. - How many brothers/sisters do you have?
- How much does it cost to be a member?
- Do you have a philanthropy?
- When where you founded?
- Do you have a mascot?
- Will pledging affect my grades?
- How long does pledging take?
- What happens if I decide not to pledge after rushing?
- Do you haze your pledges
- Can I still hang out with my other friends once I am a brother/sister?
- Do you ever arrange off-campus activities?
- What if I decide not to pledge after I start pledging?
- Do Greeks get academic recognition?
- Do you sponsor any activities on campus?
- Has your fraternity/sorority received any special honors?
- Why did you pledge?
While some of these questions are good, the first one is to suggest that they ask about numbers! I can't imagine how hard it is for every group besides the largest one to recruit in this kind of environment. How crappy when the school itself is implying that you want to join the one with the most numbers (which will probably be the hardest to get into).
