This has been answered already. You answered it yourself, in fact, in your first post.

Are you out of state, or from a tiny town, or what?

I don't know, obviously, but it could be the kind of "high school kids are not supposed to go to Roundup" like most college freshman are "not supposed to drink beer".

I'm interested in the answer to your question, since the OP seems to know just enough to be dangerous to his own rush.

This is pretty much right on...

Here's a whole thread on Roundup at UT..although I will say that it's different for girls going through sorority recruitment..

Found this pretty easily via the internet.

Sounds like they are/were serious about no high school students.

Here's the deal. Yes, you can go to round up and plenty of HS Seniors do. In order to get a wristband, you have to show a college ID, I won't discuss how, but people get around this all the time. IF you go, and I am stressing the word IF, behave. IMO, roundup can do more harm than good, with only one behavioral mistake. So tread wisely and go only if you feel you are in complete control of your own behavior. And good luck.

***Disclaimer...this is an answer FOR A GUY. If you are a high school girl...I would not step foot in the city limits of Austin on that weekend. It never seems to end well. :roll eyes:

Here is a clip from Round UP 2012...watch carefully...can you control yourself in this type of situation?....Yes, this is just one house, but every event of that weekend is similar...heck his is probably somewhat mild in comparisons to others.

So basically Round Up is 20 year old white dudes acting like they're Snoop Dogg. LOL. I just want to state that, the loose tank top thing REALLY needs to end NOW.

You could say that. I don't see the baggy tanks going away. The new thing is sports bras, in neon of course, with letters on them. I think they are just getting starting..just when you think it can't get any brighter...

Oh how the temptation must be overwhelming for HS students. I agree that this would probably not bode well for them. But if they can get around it they will try.

To the thread poster, don't do it. It will, in all probability, only hurt your chances of getting into a Fraternity. I see nothing good coming from your attendance as the college students will resent your presence at their party if they find out.
