Except Jersey. It's ok to wear jorts in Jersey.*

*And by ok, I mean people won't make fun of you, because they're also wearing jorts...not ok, as in fashionably acceptable.

This is a lie. A lie. A lie.

It's NEVER okay to wear jorts, even in Jersey.

Thanks all for the replies.
One last question...how superficial is the fraternity recruitment at your schools? I'm a decent looking guy, very athletic, and pretty ripped (175 on bench and I weigh 145).

You gotta get your weight up, Broseph Stalin.

And other than clothes, I would imagine it's not too superficial although I've never gone to school there.

Again it depends on the fraternity and even the individual. Like for example my chapter is really active in intramurals so having an athletic guy would be a plus, but its not everything. Honestly I'd think your personality and how you interact with the brothers and other PNMs will factor into it more than your looks and athletic ability.

Some guitar players I have known keep their nails longer than what would be considered normal for males. If that's the case, cut them for rush - they'll grow back.

And some people are just really bad about cutting their nails (fingers and toes).
