Going back to college for another degree and rushing a fraternity, advice?

A lot of them walk into the workplace with that mentality and get put in their place fast, so since you were kind enough to call me an "oldass" and give me advice that's the reality for the most of you. For you to get that offended over a guy rushing just means a lot of you are bottom barrel in your sorority and have nothing better to do, you are scoping around on a fraternity section for crying out loud.

Most of you seemed to have had everything handed to you in life and feel invincible because you are in a cocoon called college and can get away with this superiority complex you have, get used to being put in your place once you hit the real world. This coming from a guy who has had at least 5 years of experience in it.

That said, since I have my mind set on rushing a fraternity and am not going to change it, why are you still here on this thread? Shouldn't your lives be slightly more interesting?

I congratulate you on your decision. It seems that any of the issues there might be with age are pretty obvious, so I don't assume you'll need any special help there.

It just depends on where you're going and what house. Everyplace is different. I've seen a house (in recent years) give a bid to a Vietnam Vet who was going back to school. The guy went through formal recruitment sporting his veteran regalia.

Just go through the process, be yourself and whatever other platitudes... and yeah, some of the posters here are pretty bad about always assuming the worst about people and needing to air those assumptions, but responding in kind isn't going to gain you any ground.

My prediction is you'll find a house and have a great experience. Best of luck.

Thank you. It is something I've done research about and wanted to do ever since I was 20 but being a senior in college back then I was too late to the party. I have done independent research on it but wanted to get a more involved with discussions on it.
