Sorry to intrude. I think you should ALWAYS research the one frat that is you, who you feel that you can bond with, etc. Remember, it is a lifelong decision. I would say who I think is the best but I don't know much about the IFC there at Haterville, I mean Gatorville! Best of luck!

I want to chime in here - I really love how the guys can discuss tiers and thoughts on why one group may rise above the next or be of a certain caliber (you get what I mean). This just isn't something that is easily done when discussing sororities. It is always drama and HUGE issues. Kuddos to you all for handling it well.

One thing - PADFSUGirl2K2, when you say research, what would you advise someone to do? I would like to hear your perpective on this.

Go to the websites of the fraternities or go to a member. I don't know about the IFC too much but this is what I was always told when I was looking into sororities.

Actually we have 14 counting the ethnic one and the newest colony.

The colony has to get 105 to become a chapter, apparently.

That's not going to happen. They're going to have to bid every single person who didn't get a bid everywhere else and even then, they're not going to get the guys they need. With the start they've had...they're in bad shape.

edit: Not knowing specific recent figures, but having seen a year old one...I think there are 5 chapters that number above 150, LXA, KE, PDT, EX, SAE

Overall, though, it's the bigness of the car that counts the most. Because when something bad happens in a really big car – accidentally speeding through the middle of a gang of unruly young people who have been taunting you in a drive-in restaurant, for instance – it happens very far away – way out at the end of your fenders. It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke

From a southern girl's point of view, SAE is the best at Florida. Even if they do wear orange...

Can you sum up (again) what the So-Fl tendencies actually are? I would like to have some insight into this stereotype.

Ha! That's one of the funniest things I've read. please, allow me to add some:

Wearing your collar outside your coat;
More than one ring on your hand;
Wearing jewelry anyplace on your body that your girlfriend might wear on hers;
A tattoo in any language other than English;
Winning the "Miami Vice Lookalike" contest;
Can recite entire scenes of the movie "Scarface" from memory;
Enjoys fishing, but uses explosive devices instead of a rod & line;
Prefers pistols over long guns;

If I may:

Overly tweezed eyebrows (guys should really only fix uni-brows);
Shaves any part of his body other than his face;
Abercrombie & Fitch/Hollister;
Unbuttons his oxford to show off his chest (seriously, that's nasty);
Rocks gold chains.

The only time you should be wearing sunglasses at night is if you are too dosed at a concert and the light show is scaring you.
