The first thing my mentor told me to do was come to college and meet the brothers. And i did of course, they a bunch of cool guys. Right now im just on my journey to get my gpa up. My two boys were hard que interests and this year (sophmore year) started pre-pledging..but stopped when they felt some type of way. Now they are trying to be alpha interests. It upsets me because they feel as though they are just as much an interest as i am. And i missed this semesters intake because i didnt have the gpa and im pretty much guaranteed for the next one but i know they arent. They just wanna stroll and get letters, and they get mad when i don't feed into their non-sense.

They think just cause they speak to them that they are in.
Is it right for me to feel some type of way?
This is not a blog entry or a text message. You are posting on a Greek message board where first impressions can determine whether people take your post seriously.

As for your actual question, let's begin with why you think you are guaranteed for the next intake. How do you know when the next intake will be and that you will be there? I'm quite familiar with the "ranking of aspirants" and this often comes from the aspirants themselves. However, as far as you know, you all can all be in the same boat. Instead of caring about what your friends are thinking and doing, worry about your gpa and being worthy of this lifelong commitment to a BGLO.
