And FWIW, I don't own any pink polo shirts.
as long as you don't pop the collar I think you'll be okay and free from any poser comments. But honestly, I have a lot of friends in frats, and they are all cool guys...but when they all get together it seems their whole mentality changes for the worse. Pledging a frat is fine if that's what you want, just be yourself and don't get caught up in the hype. Good luck
take me to your parties immediately

I think its totally cool to pay rediculous ammounts of money to have friends.
Meh, sorry. Im just not a fan. Good luck.

that's true. Delta Gamma, often thought of as the wealthiest and most expensive sor, in 2001 charged $6000 to live in the house. badass house, too, with a badass mom.mack said:My sister is in a Sorority. Its cheaper to live there than at the dorms. I get to go to the partys, they are very fun!Ithica doesnt allow/have kegs, so its like a sea of cans instead.
Get a life.
rent-a-friend's(frats) are gay
So.............
Pay tons of money, endure public humiliation, and risk alcohol poisoning so you can be judged by others as "cool".

Oh no ****..... My BEST friend, who grew up next door to me all my life, pledged Phi Sig at Georgia Tech... He doesnt live at the house tho. He said "fack that ****" to it. Yeah... they are a frat, throw big parties with usually some pretty women. I dont really ever make a point to stop by 'the house' and hang out tho. We usually just go ride
i pop my colar
one of the frats here doesn't shuvle there walk when it snows and it is practicly impassable when the snow gets compacted, melts and then refreezes into icedexterq20 said:

I pledged sigma nu first semester and loved a ton of stuff about the house. Here in MT the greek system wasnt known for being cool and whatnot but first semester the house litterally changed alkl of that. I still would be in the frat if it was not for my pledge class and having to live in the house. Our class was full of a ton of major d-bags, most of whom didnt party, drink, do anything fun except play video games (they boost grades for the house though only reason they got in). Living in a frat house would be hell always messy and what not. Even though i dropped i still hang with most of the guys on a regular basis at the bars, parties, the frat house or other frat houses. I met some of the most interesting and cool people through the greek system and they all have no problem with me still hangin out and bringing people to their parties. My x girlfriend is in a sorority and I would have never met her if it wasnt for the frat house. The girls and parties are some of the best in this town especially the functions, except the one where I was ruffied by this creepy old man. I love the whole frat boy perception:
Jocks (maby 20%)
Preppy popped collars (maby 50%)
booze hounds (maby 70% but its the same in the dorms and at parties)
bad grades (highest gpa in Montana and pretty damn well in the nation as a whole 3.5 last semester)
paying for friends, more like paying for a place to live, eat, sleep, party and have a good time. Not everyone in the frat hangs out together, actually quite a few people really dont like each other in my old frat. We are talking fist fights here on a regualr basis.
You always have someone to get your back no matter what happens in life. Me and 3 buddies got jumped comming home from the bars one night by 10-12 kids who where 23ish and one of my buddies got away, ran to the frat house a block away and instantly there where 30 + guys helping us out.
Frats also help you get good jobs and meet new connections in life. One of the active member meet a guy through the frat that owned a logging company and used to be a Sigma NU. Well they made a little biz deal and now this kid is pulling in 200,000 a year and has about 50 peope he is in charge of in 3 seperate jobs. Its not all just parties and whatnot.

I came in to college totally against frats...but somehow got talked into pledging one. Honestly it really isnt that great, i mean there are some good times...but alot of it is just BS that waistes your time. I mean its cool to have the parties and such, but dont let it run ur life. I just had fun with it and kept my individuality. I dunno, just my advise.

maybe some of your bros can sober up enough to teach you how to spell "maby" maybe.dexter said:
spelling is so 90s.
Well, you wouldn't believe how many job apps we toss because they can't spell basic things. Whether or not their networked connections got us to read them in the first place.narlus said:
My personal favorite so far, especially since we've had more than one:
"Dear Havrad University,
I have always been known for my careful attention to detail..."
Oh come on you guys...just cuz YOU don't like it doesn't mean it ain't any good (great quote by Mike Muir in that song You Can't Bring me Down) Anyway, I never cared for the tools I encountered in fraternities, but if this guy wants to join a frat, so what...let him enjoy it. Theres lots of hot college chicks that love frat guys, so pretty soon y'all'll be livin vicariously through his porn movie type posts beggin for pictures..

Not all frats are bad....like everything they have a stereotype attached to them, some true, some not true. The frat house I hung out at in school was one of the safest places on campus for me to be. I always had a house full of "big brothers" to watch my back and even tuck me into an empty bed when I'd had just a little to much to drink
They were a good group of guys who I had a lot of fun hanging out with. The public humiliation, alchol posionsing, severe hazing....sure it happens, but not eveywhere. All depends on things like the greek system at the school, the fraternity chapter, etc. There are bad apples in every bunch, but doesn't make 'em all bad.
don't confuse the rest of us w/ stosh.dh girlie said:
Fraternities are no better/worse than college sports teams with the exception that colleges are more likely to monitor and punish bad behavior in a fraternity where they are more likely to cover up problems on their sports teams.
