I totally agree with Leslie.... While its fun to party and socialize with Greeks, that isn't what makes you "cool" on campus and that isn't the main point of Greek life.
Greek life/becoming a brother or sister is about bonding with the people in that organization. Learning from and respecting one another. It gives you that amazing feeling of brother or sisterhood.
Can you do it as a freshman, sure. Can it be overwhelming, totally. But if you are interested, I would say to check it out. It can't hurt and either way you'll take something away from it/learn from it.
I would suggest going to the school's website and see if they have the names of the fraternities and sororities on campus. See if they have their own websites and if they are national, then go to their main/headquarters page. See what you can learn about these groups.
Most importantly, if and when you do rush, make sure you feel comfortable where you are and always be yourself. I hope this helps. Good luck and let us know what happens!
