Problem: Just because you like, get along, and "have something in common" with the members of the chapter of your current campus doesn't mean you will like, get along, and "have something in common" with the members of another chapter of the same fraternity.

When I was an undergrad, my chapter was known for being laid-back and fairly low-key. Most of the members worked jobs because we had to, not because we wanted to. The other chapter in our state was known for being full of wealthy, well connected members. Although we got along and had a common goal through our fraternity, our chapters could not have been more dissimilar in personality.

Food for thought.

yea i know. i'm actually leaning heavily on Sigma Chi . Most of the fraternities here are guys from southern backgrounds that are from south carolina or a neighboring state. I'm pretty confident though that i can make friends at any school i did transfer to, even if i don't connect to the chapter as a whole theres gotta be a few good guys in it.

i just wanted to get a general conception out of the ones i like at USC if they were good guys at the other schools.

all the info is very helpful guys.
