No, there are plenty of reasons to boot someone. We go into rush planning on booting at least 5 and trying to get others to quit.

That is one of the most ignorant things I have ever seen or heard!

I have to make an addendum to it.
We know that we will make some bad choices during rush. We know we will make at least 5 bad choices (because we're idiots, sometimes). We try to make good choices, but usually around 5 slip through the cracks...even if we signed them before school started.

EW;
I am, after seeing you post here over the past year or so, rather confused over your sudden expertise and experience.
You changed schools, you posted that you choose not to re-affiliated with "new" chapter as you did not think too highly of the Brothers there, and as well as not even being on campus and being out of touch with events there.
And during all this, you are somehow involved with IFC and rush rather that the chapter that you never affiliated with???
What , you kissed and made up? If so, do they know what you said about them???

Absolutely on all counts.
Thanks for keeping up with my social life. I don't know what I would do without GreekChat making sure everythings okay.

No, not keeping up with your life at all. If I was, I would have also pointed out the number of times you have been caught mis-speaking by other people on your campus(s).
Whatever.
