Fraternity houses are known at a lot of schools as the primary source to get your weed and a lot of other socially unsavory things. You may have learned your lesson but how are you going to deal with the guys who are offering you pot, wanting you to party with them, possibly want you to get it for them? This is a very real concern for all fraternity members, but for a person who would not be treated kindly by the courts in a strike 2 scenario, I think you should be mentally prepared for how you're going to deal with that.

And to the extent you can, try to align yourself with a cleaner cut set. They'll still be smoking, drinking and lovin on the ladies, but maybe they'll be a bit more skilled at hiding it from the masses and be able to stay under the radar. The guys who need to brag about what they can get, how much they party, etc. will do nothing to help you avoid the cops in the future.
I actually laughed out loud at this way of expressing the things the OP may encounter in college. This just makes me like you so much more. I feel like this is how I've probably phrased this in the past. Oh, and I like your statement about not knowing what to expect and being mentally prepared. While it would be great to think that this type of behavior does not occur in fraternities, it can and does (in some). OP, please do consider this when looking at the prospect of going Greek. Obligatory cliché statement about people, places, and things.
