First off, that's pretty toolish of your chapter.

However, college is a good time to adjust to dressing more mature, whether that be GQ style or Southern. Ditch the Hollister, A&F, American Eagle, etc., it doesn't impress girls and really shouldn't be worn after high school.

If you want to do the whole Southern fraternity thing, it's pretty easy because every guy essentially wears the same thing. Just get some Polo polos in white/navy/conservative colors, a pair of Polo shorts and some Sperry's. If you can't afford it, what I'd do is check out your size for those brands at a local department store and then use eBay to search for those. Sometimes they'll sell bulk deals for older polo shirts on that site.

That being said, I agree with what everybody posted about this chapter...if it's truly an old exclusive Southern chapter, you probably wouldn't have been bid if you DIDN'T dress like that, and if it's a chill chapter they wouldn't have really given a shit about what you wear. This leads me to think you might be in a chapter that is trying really hard to be a "good ol' boy" chapter but really isn't, which is going to lead to a lot of posturing, overkill and douchebaggery. What is the rest of your pledge class like? Do they resemble the older brothers at all, or is this a fraternity that is going to pressure you (through hazing or just good ol' peer pressure) to change your image/personality? Because frankly no matter where you're at, nobody likes "that guy" who is trying so hard to be something he just isn't, and if it's a fraternity full of them well...
