Transferring from a small college to a state school. Am I still considered a brother?

[das343]

Helping? Volunteering? I did that stuff when I was a brother at my old school, why should I take time out of my summer to help out now just to "prove" myself as a brother??

I'm all for volunteer work and such during the school year and other activities associated with the fraternity, but I don't understand what I have to prove. I went through the same process as every other FIJI and became a brother. What do I have to prove?

Honestly, I'll be insulted if they reject me, because that's not what FIJI is about.

I'm sure the new chapter will be thrilled to have you.

Yeah regardless of FIJI's and the school's policies regarding transfers, who wants to accept a member from another chapter who scoffs at helping out and volunteering?

If you were at your first chapter wouldn't you be required to do those things anyways? So what is the difference if you do it for your old chapter or new chapter?
