People join sororities and fraternities for a variety of reasons, not all of them the most noble. What he's said about his reasons for interest doesn't offend me. I am (as so often happens) confused about why he asked a question and then attacked possibly our most knowledgeable GC member (regardless of gender or member status) as a troll. Also, I believe he might consult a dictionary of some sort for a definition of troll as it applies to our usage.

If I were to hazard a guess, rush parties at USC are probably pretty big and if he went to a couple parties to hang out and eat the food, it probably wouldn't be remembered 6 months or a year later.

My suggestion: go through rush, check out a couple who were interested in you before and a couple new ones who seem to fit your goals as a member going forward. But don't get all defensive and call the guys d-bags when/if they don't invite you back for more parties or eventually pledge you. This is a membership selection process and they're not going to take every guy who expresses interest and that does NOT mean they're assholes straight out of a bad movie if they don't want you. This is your opportunity to be a man and put yourself out there and open yourself up to rejection.
