My family, besides my mom says that the rushes are basically the same in the movie and I should not rush, they are mostly anti- frat. My mom is th only one supporting me in this encouraging me to rush.

Are any of those people members of fraternities or sororities?

No. My mom wasn't but she said frat guys and jocks were the only people she dated.
Edit: Just so I don't get killed, that's a direct quote form my mom. I do not call fraternities, frats.

I see. Non-Greeks aren't the best sources for fraternity and sorority information.

Browse the forums and speak with people you know in real life. You'll be able to determine if Greek life is for you by doing that.

Good luck.
