Maybe there are some misunderstandings here. It is not that I do not want to put in the energy. In fact, I have done a lot of research on their website. I just want to have different opinions since I am new to the whole process. THey can say whatever they want but what I want to know is whether it is going to be true.

For some members, yes. For some members, no. The FIJI men that I've known over the years are fabulous.

I'm stepping out of my lane, but I'm sure what FIJI would want to know before giving you the opportunity to join their brotherhood would be will it be true for you? Colonization isn't for sissies.

The concept that organizations differ at different campuses is one of the most truthful statements out there.

Having co-founded a chapter of another national fraternity and also seeing some recolonized chapters, it really is a fact that only the stuff on the fraternity's national website applies. Everything else is a clean slate that you get to influence. That's what being a co-founder is about: you're not just joining an organization, you're building one. There's a tremendous amount of responsibility for each co-founder to ensure that they build a sustainable organization that they'll be proud to look back on years in the future.

So, the questions for you are: Can you live up to this? Do you find FIJI's national goals compatible with yours? Are you ready to be part of something in which you will have a huge amount of influence on its culture, traditions, and reputation?
