I almost said something about the Austin/UT/Blinn/A&M situation. The difference, at least as I understand it, is that with the Blinn/A&M relationship, you can only rush if you are Team Blinn—which is a special dual enrollment situation.

It all boils down to one thing. For a university to be able to have authority over a student organization, its membership has to be students of that university. From a liability standpoint, they would need to be students of that university. Now, there are a lot of situations where fraternities are not recognized as student organizations and frankly, I would never allow any child of mine to be in a situations like that.

IF, there was a non-recognized fraternity at the university in your town and they did allow your son to go through recruitment, it may be a bad thing right from the start. He might be perceived as second rate from the beginning (as is seen sometimes in the Blinn/A&M relationship and that may create more negatives than you could ever imagine.
